Local-first AI coding agent
Vobe with Ollama.
Freevobe is your local vibecoding agent. Install it, connect Ollama and build software through natural-language chat — no API keys, no token counting, no cloud dependency.
Freevobe is distributed through GitHub Releases.
No tokens. No limits. Just vibes.
The whole loop on your machine — plan, diff, terminal and tests in one workspace.
Built for the AI & vibe coding community
- Local-first
- Ollama-powered
- No API key required
- Open skills
- Private by default
Token limits should not stop your flow.
Cloud agents bill you for thinking. Freevobe runs the model you already have, so the meter never starts.
Usage limits
Run locally with Ollama.
Your GPU does the work. No rate limits, no weekly caps and no waiting for a reset at midnight.
API costs
No per-token billing.
One local model, unlimited prompts. The only cost is the electricity you already pay for.
Cloud privacy concerns
Your code stays on your machine.
Files, prompts and diffs never leave your computer unless you explicitly connect a cloud model.
Features
Everything you need to vobe.
Local Ollama connection
Connect to your local models in one click.
Claude-like workspace
Chat, plan, edit, diff and run — in one clean workspace.
Safe agent actions
Review diffs and approve commands before anything changes.
Skills & templates
Use Markdown skills to teach Freevobe your workflow.
Git & terminal
Create branches, commit changes and run tests without leaving the app.
MCP integrations
Connect external tools through the Model Context Protocol.
How it works
Three steps to your first ship.
1
Download Freevobe
Grab the native app for Windows, macOS or Linux. Nothing else to install — the agent ships with it.
2
Connect Ollama
Freevobe finds localhost:11434, lists your models and shows which ones support tool calling.
3
Start vobing
Describe the app you want. Review every diff, approve commands and let the agent commit.
01Install
Native app for your OS
02Connect Ollama
One click to localhost:11434
03Choose model
Any model you have pulled
04Prompt

05Review diff

06Ship
Commit and run tests
Skills & templates
Teach Freevobe how you build.
Skills are plain Markdown files with YAML frontmatter. Drop them in your project and the agent picks them up — no plugins, no rebuild.

Gives Back
No ads. A choice to give back.
Freevobe does not sell your attention. Instead of an advertising slot, the app can offer a voluntary reminder about a cause you picked. You give directly to the organisation — Freevobe never handles the money.
No ad network, no tracking, no checkout in the app.
No advertising
Freevobe ships without ad slots, ad scripts and ad networks. Nothing in the app is for sale.
No money through Freevobe
The app has no checkout, no account and no payment provider. Every link opens the organisation’s own page.
Off by default
The reminder in the chat is opt-in, appears in its own block and never touches the agent’s context.
Your log stays local
If you record a contribution, it is marked as self-reported and stored only in your local database.
The catalogue is editorial and links point at each organisation's own front page rather than at a checkout, so a changed payment flow never turns into a broken promise. Freevobe has no partnership, commission or referral agreement with any organisation listed here. Read the full description in docs/gives-back.md.
Privacy
Your code stays yours.
Freevobe runs locally by default. Connect Ollama on your own machine and keep your projects, prompts and files private.
- No account and no sign-in.
- No telemetry leaving the app.
- Diff and approval gate before every write.
Data path
- Your machine
- Ollama
- Freevobe
- Your project
Everything in that loop runs on hardware you already own. Nothing is uploaded unless you explicitly connect a cloud model.
