Show HN: Voidleap Code – agentic IDE, own harness, swap models mid-conversationhttps://voidleap.com/We wanted to build a development environment that can make you a better agentic engineer, not a tool that makes money when you waste tokens. A tool where you can swap models between turns, edit the context, and see every agent action. To do it, we had to build our own harness.Free to use. We don't sell inference, so bring your own key. The sore spot is Claude subscriptions. We can't support them because of Anthropic's terms.The app runs on your machine, and your data never touches our servers.We've been building Voidleap Code using Voidleap Code since January. We didn't rush to launch, but instead focused on getting the architecture and package just right. There are still more features to build, and more polishing to do, but it's ready for you to try.Judge it for yourself and tell us what you think.Aug 18, 2026 6:40 PM
