Devika

Devika

Devika is an open-source implementation of an agentic software engineer. It interprets high-level human instructions, decomposes them into steps, researches relevant information on the web, and writes the required code — aiming to be a free alternative to Devin by Cognition AI.

Key Features

• Intent understanding — parses natural-language instructions into structured engineering tasks using an LLM planner
• Research loop — autonomously searches the web for libraries, APIs, and documentation before writing code
• Code generation — writes, iterates, and fixes code across multiple files and languages
• Interactive UI — browser-based chat interface to communicate, preview, and guide the agent
• State tracking — maintains agent state across sessions; resume interrupted tasks
• Multi-model — supports Claude, GPT-4, and local models via Ollama

Quick Start

cd devika && pip install -r requirements.txt
cp sample.env .env  # add your API keys
python devika.py
