The frontier AI harness that has a personality and lets you vibecode from bed.
Overkill remembers you, learns your style, reaches you on every platform you use, and calls you out when you're about to ship something dumb at 2am.

It remembers you. Actually.
Not session state, real memory. It tracks how you work, your beats, the time you rage-typed a commit message in all caps. The longer you use it, the better it knows how to work with you. Two-layer personality model: knows the difference between "he's always like this" and "he's having a week."
It has a personality. You just talk to it.
No soul file, no system prompt engineering. Just talk to it and it gets your vibe, direct when you're in flow, dry about failures, quiet when you're heads-down. A colleague, not a servant. Memo the elephant shows up when it's thinking. It cracks jokes. It has fun facts.
It reaches you everywhere.
Telegram, Slack, Discord, WhatsApp, Signal, Matrix, Mattermost, Feishu. Start a task in the terminal, get the update on your phone, approve the deploy from a grocery store line. One agent, one session, any surface.
It's not afraid to say no.
Three walls of quality gates. Ouroboros red-teams your code. The architecture wall catches drift. At 11:48pm, it refuses to push auth changes without asking. A coding partner, not a yes-man.
No narration. Just a real session, with personality.
It boots, remembers where you left off, cracks a joke, takes an order from your phone, hits a wall, and ships, without you babysitting it.
25 features no other coding harness has.
We audited 12 codebases across 405 features. 43 are genuine exclusives. Not "we do it better", "nobody else does it at all."
Situational Awareness
Pre-action reflection classifies content type, checks your context, inventories available tools, and picks the best modality, TTS for dense research, minimal text for mobile, structured diffs for code. No agent on the market does this.
Memo Thinking Engine
Context-matched thinking phrases with a personality. Not "thinking...", Memo the elephant says "Digging through your old commits for clues" or "Weighing two options, one's spicy." Fun module ships with jokes, Easter eggs, and movie quotes.
Cross-Channel Continuity
Start in the terminal, continue on Telegram, approve on your phone. Same session, same context, same agent. No other harness does this without losing state.
3 Walls Quality Gates
Ouroboros red-teams your code. Architecture wall catches drift. Test quality wall builds a regression bank. Every shipped bug becomes a permanent test. Same bug structurally cannot re-ship.
Dual-State Memory
LCM-inspired hierarchical DAG with hot/cold paging. Three-level escalation guarantees convergence. Postgres/pgvector with GPU-accelerated embeddings. Your 20-year colleague never forgets.
104+ Provider Auto-Discovery
Factory auto-discovers every OpenAI-compatible provider from the models.dev catalog. Smart routing picks the cheapest capable model per task. Family-aware failover. No hardcoded model names.
One line. Then it asks you the questions.
$ curl -fsSL https://overkill.my/install | sh
First launch runs an onboarding wizard. Pick a provider, paste a key, pick a theme, start talking. It learns your vibe from how you talk to it. Done in under a minute.
Start a task in the terminal. Get the result on your phone.
The only frontier coding harness that's fully open source.
Amp Code? Closed. Claude Code? Closed. Overkill is MIT/Apache-2.0. Read every line. Fork it. Ship it as your own. No black box, no telemetry you didn't ask for, no "contact sales." It's a binary, a config file, and you.
43 exclusive features. 10 gateways. 104+ providers. 100K+ lines of Go + TypeScript + Python. One repo. All yours.
