About Otter
Otter is a local-first, self-hosted AI coding agent that prioritizes codebase comprehension before performing edits. Operating entirely on the user's machine without cloud agents or silent file modifications, Otter imports GitHub repositories to analyze architecture signals, entry points, and tech stacks. Developers can use grounded chat to plan updates, analyze risks, generate code patches, review diffs, and submit pull requests with full user approval.
