Keen Code is an open-source, context-aware and efficient CLI coding agent written in Go. Three aspects stand it out from other similar products:
- It was built from scratch by coding agents, with the full prompt/design trail preserved and shared in the repo.
- It uses turn memory to keep multi-turn sessions lean which saves context significantly.
- It maps MCP servers to lazy-loaded Skills instead of stuffing large schemas into context upfront. This again saves context in mult-MCP setting.
