🚀 NextPi: The Agentic IDE

NextPi is your project's personal secret agent. It's a lightweight, powerful AI-IDE that lives in your project folder and helps you research, code, and debug using top-tier LLMs—all through a beautiful, VS-Code-like interface in your browser.

Turn any folder into an intelligent workspace with just one command.

⚡️ Quick Start

You don't even need to install it! Just run this in any folder on your computer:

npx @drewsepsi/nextpi

Requires Node.js installed.

🤔 Why NextPi?

ChatGPT and Claude are great, but they don't have context. They can't see your files, they can't run your code, and they can't confirm if their suggestions actually work.

NextPi is different. It is an agent, not just a chatbot.

1. It sees what you see: It automatically indexes your local files.
2. It takes action: It can create files, fix bugs, and run terminal commands.
3. It researches: If it doesn't know something, it searches the web and reads documentation for you.

✨ Features

• 📂 Folder-Aware: Instant context for your current workspace.
• 🌐 Web Research: Real-time internet access to find the latest API docs and solutions.
• 🛠 Code Editing: High-fidelity file modifications and bug fixes.
• 🧠 Multi-Model Support: Powered by OpenRouter—use Claude 3.5 Sonnet, GPT-4o, Gemini 1.5 Pro, and more.
• 🚀 Live Preview: Launch your app (e.g., npm run dev) and view it side-by-side with the agent.
• 🌑 Sleek UI: A premium dark-mode interface with glassmorphism and smooth animations.

🔑 Setup & Config

NextPi works out of the box. You'll need an OpenRouter API key to power the AI.

You can set it up in two ways:

1. In the UI: Click the Settings gear in the top right and paste your key.
2. Via Terminal:

   export OPENROUTER_API_KEY=your_key_here

🔒 Privacy & Safety

NextPi runs locally on your machine. While it communicates with AI providers via API, it only reads the files in the directory where you launch it. Your local environment remains under your total control.
