AI chat for VS Code with a local command center behind it
Chat from an editor tab with the provider you choose — no lock-in. Observe, protect, route, compress, and coach every turn on your machine. Open the desktop command center on Windows for extra screens and Host controls. No prompt text stored.
Retrieve
Your local knowledge center for project docs
Drop folders into a local index, search in minutes, then connect Cursor or Claude via MCP — or point clients at passthrough and REST — with no Docker or cloud upload. Wire can inject the same corpus into your agent chats.
Chat through Wire for live traffic, protection, routing, and coaching. Index once in Terran and enrich every Wire chat — or keep using passthrough and MCP when that fits better. Each product works alone; together they form one local pipeline from your IDE to the provider.
Aura Wire installs from a .vsix; the Windows installer adds the desktop command center. Product pages cover screenshots, features, and FAQs.
