Open-source TypeScript terminal coding agent for DeepSeek-V4 — builds on DeepSeek's strong price-performance and ultra-cheap cache pricing, engineering byte-stable prefixes and cache-reusing forks so cross-session memory and a continuous self-correction layer add almost no token cost; 1M context, Skills/MCP/Hooks, Claude Code config compatible.

# Dao Code 道 **English** · [中文](./README.zh-CN.md) [](https://github.com/tigicion/dao-code/actions/workflows/ci.yml) [](./LICENSE) [](./.nvmrc) [](./CONTRIBUTING.md) > **A terminal coding agent built around cost, experience, and availability** — squeezing the most capability and the lowest cost out of the high-value DeepSeek V4.  Dao Code (command `dao`) is a terminal-native AI coding assistant: it reads code, writes code, runs commands, and fixes bugs right in your terminal — streaming its reasoning and tool calls while executing safely behind an approval gate, until the task is done. It targets **DeepSeek V4** (1M context), is Chinese-first, and is inspired by Claude Code — but takes a different road: **rather than buying experience with an expensive model, it builds on DeepSeek's strong price-performance and ultra-cheap cache pricing, engineering byte-stable prefixes and cache-reusing forks so cross-session memory and a continuous self-correction layer add almost no token cost.** --- ## Why Dao Code? ### 🌐 Availability
