v0.1.0 — early access

Your codebase has a lot to say.
Chaves is listening.

Chaves watches your files, tracks your diffs, and proactively suggests what to work on next — without you asking. Like a rubber duck that actually talks back.

CHAVES
.: Watching...
...
YouAsk Chaves anything...
Chaves never reads .env files or API keys — our powerful shield parser keeps your secrets safe.

// how it works

Three steps. Zero friction.

01$ chaves start

Point & watch

Run chaves start in your project directory. Chaves indexes your codebase and begins watching for changes.

02// diff detected

Reads as you code

Every save, every diff. Chaves tracks what changed, in what file, and in what context — building a live picture of your intent.

03> suggestion ready

Speaks up proactively

No need to ask. Chaves tells you what's happening and what's logically next, like a senior dev looking over your shoulder.

// features

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

[proactive]

Proactive suggestions

Chaves doesn't wait to be asked. It watches your diffs and speaks up when it has something useful to say.

[rubber-duck]

Rubber Duck mode

Explain your thinking to Chaves and let it reflect it back. Based on the Rubber Duck Debugging technique from The Pragmatic Programmer.

[file-watch]

File watching & diff tracking

Always aware of what changed, when, and in what context. Chaves builds a live model of your work session.
