OpenSeek - 广度求索

中文: README-zh.md Website: https://openseek.dev/

Open-source TUI coding agent — a TypeScript / Bun monorepo.

Lightweight terminal coding companion with multi-provider routing (OpenAI-compatible / Anthropic / Bedrock / Vertex / Azure), 50+ tools, 100+ slash commands, Plan / Agent / YOLO modes, MCP client, LSP feedback, and a headless HTTP/SSE runtime API.

Requirements

• macOS or Linux (Windows: use WSL2)
• Bun ≥ 1.3 — required at runtime, not optional. The codebase uses Bun.spawn / Bun.serve / Bun.file; node alone cannot run it. Even if you install via npm i -g, the openseek command shells out to bun at startup and will fail with env: bun: No such file or directory if bun is not on your PATH.

Install

Step 1 — install bun (skip if already installed)

curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash   # any Unix
brew install oven-sh/bun/bun               # macOS (Homebrew)

Verify: bun --version should print ≥ 1.3.0.

Step 2 — install openseek

Pick one. All three put openseek on your PATH.

# A. npm
npm install -g openseek

# B. bun (same registry as A, smoother if you already use bun)
bun add -g openseek

# C. From source (recommended while iterating)
git clone https://github.com/LichAmnesia/openseek.git
cd openseek
bun install
bun run build
ln -sf "$PWD/bin/openseek" ~/.local/bin/openseek

Step 3 — run

openseek               # start the TUI
openseek doctor        # print resolved config + per-field source layer
openseek serve --http  # headless HTTP/SSE on :7117

Configuration

OpenSeek resolves each setting (provider / model / API key / base URL) from the highest layer that defines it. Higher layers override lower ones.

| # | Layer | Location | Notes | |---|---|---|---| | 1 | env | OPENSEEK_PROVIDER, OPENSEEK_MODEL, OPENSEEK_API_KEY, OPENSEEK_BASE_URL | Plus provider-specific keys (DEEPSEEK_API_KEY, ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, etc.) | | 2 | project overlay | <workspace>/.openseek/config.toml | Sandboxed — only model is honored. api_key / base_url / provider are silently dropped so a checked-in overlay can't leak secrets or hijack the provider. | | 3 | user config | ~/.openseek/config.toml | Persisted by the first-run wizard (openseek setup). 0600 perms. | | 4 | default | hard-coded fallbacks | What ships in the binary. |

Run openseek doctor to see exactly where each value resolved from:

$ openseek doctor
openseek doctor

Resolved configuration:
  provider   deepseek                       ← user (~/.openseek/config.toml)
  model      deepseek-v4-flash              ← user (~/.openseek/config.toml)
  api_key    sk-a…b8e2                      ← env
  base_url   (provider default)             ← built-in default

Precedence (highest first):
  1. env       OPENSEEK_PROVIDER / OPENSEEK_MODEL / OPENSEEK_API_KEY / OPENSEEK_BASE_URL
  2. project   <workspace>/.openseek/config.toml  (model only — secrets ignored)
  3. user      ~/.openseek/config.toml
  4. default   built-in fallbacks

Inside the TUI, /help lists all slash commands grouped by category; /help <name> shows details for one command, /help <category> filters to a single category (session / config / tools / git / agent / skills / diagnostics / advanced / …), and /help all is a flat list.

Develop

bun install
bun run dev          # boots the CLI directly from TypeScript sources, no build needed

Verify

bun run lint        # biome
bun run typecheck   # tsc --noEmit
bun run test        # bun test
bun run verify      # all three
