## What it is
Reasonix (DeepSeek-Reasonix) is a DeepSeek-native AI coding agent delivered as a single Go binary with a terminal TUI, desktop app, browser, and ACP editor entry points. It is engineered around prefix-cache stability for long autonomous runs, with plan mode, per-tool-call permissions, a workspace sandbox, and per-turn checkpoints that can be rewound.

## Use cases
- run an ai coding agent in my terminal
- automate multi-file code edits with an llm agent
- leave a coding agent running on long tasks with undo
- integrate an ai agent into my editor via acp
- use deepseek models for autonomous coding
- add mcp tools to a coding agent

## When to choose
- you live in the terminal and want fast, scriptable repo work via reasonix run
- you want auditable autonomy with approvals, sandboxing, and per-turn checkpoints
- you use DeepSeek models and want prompt-cache-friendly long sessions
- you want one local engine accessible from terminal, desktop, browser, or editor

## When to avoid
- you need a cloud-hosted agent with no local install
- you require non-DeepSeek LLM providers as a primary workflow
- you want a fully autonomous agent with no approval gates or checkpoints
