A free, local, provider-agnostic coding studio. Chat, IDE, and Idea Box — your files, your keys, no account, no cloud.
Choose the format you prefer. Both are free and work on any modern Linux distribution.
No package manager, no sudo, no dependencies to install. It is a single self-contained file.

Three surfaces, one workspace. Everything runs locally.
Ask questions, review decisions, and let the agent run commands, read files, and make changes.
A VS Code-style editor with a real terminal, file tree, problems panel, and diff view.
Describe an app in one sentence — it plans, writes every file, runs it, and hands you the link.
Install skills, MCP servers, and commands from the marketplace to extend the agent.
Browse SQLite and run queries from the database panel, with a schema explorer.
The workspace is isolated. The app's own installation is write-protected everywhere.
Spyro Studio is provider-agnostic. You bring your own key for a provider like OpenRouter, NVIDIA, Groq, or run a local model with Ollama. No Anthropic or Claude account is required.
Everything stays on your machine. Conversations live in ~/.claude-free/sessions, and the workspace is ~/.claude-free/projects. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.
Only to the model provider you choose, to run the AI. Your files, sessions, and keys are never sent anywhere by Spyro Studio itself.
It bundles Electron, the app UI, the Node server, and all runtime dependencies into one self-contained file — that is why it runs on any Linux without installing anything first.
No. Spyro Studio is free but closed-source. The binary is distributed as-is; the source is not published.
Download the new release and replace the old file. Settings and sessions are kept in your home folder, so nothing is lost between versions.
