100% on-device · your code never leaves your machine

The AI IDE that runs
entirely on your machine

Typewright is a local, TypeScript-native AI coding environment. Agentic chat, inline completions, and refactoring — powered by your own models via Ollama. Private by design, fast, and offline-ready.

Ollama-powered No cloud, no telemetry Works offline Built on VS Code
Why Typewright

Everything the cloud IDEs do — without the cloud

The same agentic power as Cursor or Copilot, but every token is generated on your hardware. Nothing to leak, nothing to subscribe to.

Private by design

All inference runs locally via Ollama. Your source, your prompts, and your keys never touch a server.

TypeScript-native

Tuned for TS/JS: type-aware edits, real compiler diagnostics in the loop, and AST-level refactors.

Genuinely agentic

It plans, reads your codebase, edits files, runs commands and tests, then verifies its own work.

Instant completions

A tiny fill-in-the-middle model gives low-latency inline suggestions with real cross-file context.

Bring your own model

Run a 1.5B model on a laptop or a 30B coder on a workstation — you choose the tier per task.

You stay in control

Every edit is a reviewable diff; every shell command is gated. Approve, undo, or sandbox in a worktree.

How it works

Local models, real agency

01

Install & pull a model

Install Typewright, then pull a coder model with Ollama. No account, no API key.

02

Ask in plain English

Chat with your codebase: fix a bug, add a feature, write tests. It reads, plans, and edits.

03

Review & ship

Inspect each diff, run the tests it wrote, and commit — all offline, all on your machine.

# one-time setup — nothing leaves your machine
ollama pull typewright-coder # fast inline completions
ollama pull typewright-coder-agent # agentic chat + tools

# then just open the Typewright panel and ask.
