Tapioca Documentation

Tapioca is an agentic coding TUI in the spirit of Claude Code, Crush and OpenCode, built with Bubble Tea. Agents read, write and edit files and run shell commands in your working directory; every mutating call goes through a permission prompt.

Source code: github.com/juacamole/tapioca

Quick start

go build -o tapioca .
cp tapioca ~/.npm-global/bin/
tapioca

With Ollama running locally it works out of the box. See Getting Started for nix builds, CLI flags and first steps.
