About Plandex
An open source, terminal-based AI coding engine that helps you complete large tasks, work around bad output, and maximize productivity. Plandex uses long-running agents to complete tasks that span multiple files and require many steps. It breaks up large tasks into smaller subtasks, then implements each one, continuing until it finishes the job. It helps you churn through your backlog, work with unfamiliar technologies, get unstuck, and spend less time on the boring stuff. Changes are accumulated in a protected sandbox so that you can review them before automatically applying them to your project files. Built-in version control allows you to easily go backwards and try a different approach. Branches allow you to try multiple approaches and compare the results.

Cline
Autonomous coding agent right in your IDE, capable of creating/editing files, running commands, using the browser, and more with your permission every step of the way. Cline can handle complex software development tasks step-by-step. With tools that let him create & edit files, explore large projects, use the browser, and execute terminal commands (after you grant permission), he can assist you in ways that go beyond code completion or tech support. While autonomous AI scripts traditionally run in sandboxed environments, this extension provides a human-in-the-loop GUI to approve every file change and terminal command, providing a safe and accessible way to explore the potential of agentic AI.

Claude Code
Claude Code is an AI-driven coding tool introduced by Anthropic as part of the Claude 3.7 Sonnet update. It allows developers to automate complex engineering tasks directly from the terminal, functioning as an active collaborator. Claude Code can read and search through code, edit files, run tests, commit and push code to GitHub, and execute command-line operations. Early testing has demonstrated its ability to complete tasks in a fraction of the time it would normally take manually, such as performing large-scale refactoring or debugging issues. While still in its research preview, Claude Code is already seen as indispensable for speeding up development workflows and enhancing test-driven development.
