Everything vibe coding gets wrong, fixed

Every AI IDE sells you the model. You already have the model. Brud gives you the hands.

  1. 01

    “I ran out of credits again.”

    You use the free web chat, so there is no meter. Vibe code all night.

  2. 02

    “My project is too big for the AI.”

    Brud gives it a map, not a dump. Proven on a real 384,000-line codebase.

  3. 03

    “The AI deleted my files and I couldn’t get them back.”

    Every session is snapshotted. Revert 1,000 files in one click. No Git required.

  4. 04

    “I want the best model, not the one my tool sells me.”

    Gemini, Claude, DeepSeek, Grok. Switch tabs, not subscriptions.

It’s fast, and we proved it

Tested on a real 384K LOC codebase, manually verified end to end.

FAQ

Questions before you install

The six things people ask most. Everything else lives in the README.

Do I need an API key?

No. Brud Code works with any chatbot’s free web UI. Paste the AI’s output directly — no keys, tokens, or subscriptions.

Is it really free?

Yes — free and open source under the MIT license.

Which AI chatbots work with it?

Any chatbot that outputs text: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Grok, Llama, and more.

Can it handle a large codebase?

Yes. Tested on a real 384K LOC project — 467 files patched in milliseconds with zero failures. Code Discovery gives the AI a token-efficient map so it never has to read everything.

What if the AI breaks something?

Every session is snapshotted before and after. Revert an entire 1,000-file session in one click, even months later.

Where did Brud Code come from?

Brud Code is a fork of Akkhar Code Patcher, which is no longer maintained. Brud Code is its official continuation under a new identity.
