Deimos takes its name from Mars’s outer moon—small, fast, and locked in orbit at the edge of the light. It is a terminal-native coding agent: one deimos command, multi-model routing across pluggable backends (Anthropic, OpenAI-compatible APIs, Gemini, GitHub Models, Ollama, Atomic Chat, and others), a full tool surface, MCP, slash commands, agent orchestration, and streaming sessions built for depth work. This repository ships the CLI, a VS Code extension, and a dark terminal theme forged for long runs in the shell.
