Understanding Your Codebase,
Autonomously Operating the Terminal.

Kernax understands your architecture and autonomously operates the terminal. Onboarding developers in batches for dedicated compute.

Supported AI Models & Core Architecture
Claude 3.7 Sonnet
OpenAI GPT-4o
DeepSeek R1
Sub-30ms FIM Dual-Buffer
Tree-Sitter AST Knowledge Graph
VS Code Extensions & Themes
Autonomous Agent Architecture

Build Full Features from Natural Language

Instruct the agent to implement an entire feature. It searches your repo, creates new files, runs tests in the terminal, and verifies diagnostics.

Multi-file surgical edits with instant side-by-side diff review.
Executes shell commands & test suites inside your workspace terminal.
Self-heals build & linter errors without human intervention.

Sub-30ms FIM Dual-Buffer Engine

Sub-30ms FIM: Next-Edit Prediction Across Open Buffers

Predicts multi-line edits and function signatures across open files before your cursor stops. Powered by our Fill-In-The-Middle (FIM) dual-buffer engine for continuous flow with zero keystroke lag.

Sub-30ms context-aware multi-line ghost text prediction powered by real-time buffer analysis.
Predictive multi-cursor jumps across open buffers without breaking developer flow state.
Adopts repo-specific naming conventions, AST boundaries, and strict type signatures.

Autonomous Background Pipelines

Mission Control: Dispatch Background Pipelines While You Code

Never wait on an AI. Schedule autonomous refactoring jobs, nightly security audits, or test generation tasks with cron triggers. Tasks run in isolated background branches—review them when you are ready.

Cron-Scheduled Audits
Isolated Git Sandboxes
Auto-PR with Rollback Guard
Tree-Sitter AST & Autonomous DevOps

Tree-Sitter AST Graph & 1-Click Autonomous Cloud Deployment

Legacy AI tools guess diffs with blind regex, dropping closing brackets on 5,000+ line files. Kernax parses your workspace into a live Tree-sitter AST graph for surgical precision, and provisions production VPS environments with 1-click.

Live Tree-sitter AST graph indexes syntax trees across your entire repo with zero hallucinated diffs or dropped brackets.
Autonomous DevOps agent provisions fresh VPS instances, configures Nginx reverse proxies, and issues SSL certificates in 60 seconds.
Deterministic checkpoints capture workspace states on every turn for instantaneous 1-click safe rewinds.

Frictionless Migration & Autonomous Cloud

The Familiar Setup, The Velocity You Imagined.

Keep your muscle memory and extensions intact. Kernax plugs into your existing engineering workflow in seconds.

30-Second Migration

1-Click VS Code Migration

All your extensions, custom settings, themes, and keybindings import automatically with one click. Zero setup overhead or learning curve.

Autonomous DevOps

Develop Locally, Deploy Live in One Command

Our built-in cloud orchestrator (deploy-server) automatically provisions isolated VPS nodes, Nginx reverse proxies, domains, and SSL certificates directly from your IDE.

$0 Seat Fees

Zero Idle Seat Waste

Stop paying mandatory $20-$40/seat monthly fees. With a unified Master Wallet, you only pay for compute used. Idle developers cost exactly $0.00.

Strict Engineering Privacy

Built for Strict Engineering Privacy

Your source code and intellectual property never persist beyond volatile RAM. Engineered with hard-lock safeguards for security-conscious development teams.

Volatile RAM-Only Execution (Zero-Retention)

Repository code is processed strictly in volatile ephemeral memory and instantly purged. Zero persistent server storage, zero disk caching, and zero code logging.

Hard-Lock Destructive Command Guard

Autonomous agents operate within strict deterministic guardrails. Potentially destructive commands (rm -rf, DROP TABLE, git push --force) are strictly sandboxed or hard-blocked without explicit confirmation.

Zero Commercial Model Training

Under strict enterprise B2B contractual agreements, your proprietary code, context, and prompts are never retained or used to fine-tune public foundation models.

Kernax is an enterprise-grade AI-native IDE engineered to write and maintain complex software with architectural precision. Unlike simple plugin assistants, Kernax features native Autonomous Background Pipelines (Mission Control), zero-truncation precision file editing across repositories with 5,000+ lines, fluid multi-line tab completions, and transparent token billing without idle seat waste.

Kernax connects directly to top-tier reasoning and coding models including Claude 3.7 Sonnet, DeepSeek R1, Qwen 2.5 Coder, and GPT-4o, plus high-throughput FIM completion models. You can select models per task or turn, and bring your own keys or use the unified Kernax Master Wallet.

We enforce strict Zero Code Retention. Your source code and context are processed purely in ephemeral memory and are never stored on persistent disks or used to train or fine-tune public foundation models. All communication is secured via end-to-end TLS 1.3 encryption.

Instead of charging a fixed $20/month per seat subscription where idle developers waste engineering budgets, Kernax uses a usage-based Master Wallet. You only pay for the exact tokens your team consumes. Idle developers cost $0, your balance never expires, and team leads can set individual per-developer spend caps.

Yes! Kernax supports 1-click import for your existing VS Code extensions, keybindings, snippets, and themes from the Open VSX registry. You keep the muscle memory and tools you rely on with unmatched autonomous capabilities.

Mission Control enables long-running background tasks such as automated test generation, repository-wide strict typing audits, security vulnerability scanning, and scheduled refactoring pipelines. You can launch a task, close your laptop, and review clean git diffs when ready.

Kernax IDE currently supports Windows 10/11 (64-bit), with native macOS (Apple Silicon & Intel) and Linux builds available in our release channels.

Not at all! Kernax features a dual-tier adaptive context compaction engine. As conversations grow, our dynamic memory management engine automatically preserves architectural decisions, file changes, and key context while eliminating runaway token billing and preventing attention dilution. In addition, you can type /summarize at any time in chat or CLI to compress the history, saving up to 70% in token costs.
