Claudian
Claudian is a framework that combines AI coding agents, knowledge base integration, and a multi-provider orchestrator for managed interactions with large language models. It functions as a browser extension that connects users to AI services through a sidebar and inline editing interface, providing a system for integrating agents into local directories to perform file operations, bash commands, and workspace searches.
The project distinguishes itself with a multi-provider orchestrator that allows switching between different AI backends while maintaining separate conversation states and configurations. It implements a plan-then-execute workflow, requiring agents to generate and receive approval for a technical design before implementing changes to a local directory. Additionally, it includes a prompt template manager for executing reusable skills and complex prompt sequences using trigger characters and slash commands.
The system covers a broad surface of capabilities including knowledge base management via local vault synchronization and mention-based context injection. It provides tools for inline text refinement with word-level diff rendering and maintains project history through state-persistent conversation forking. External utilities can be integrated into the environment using a standardized tool protocol supporting stdio, SSE, or HTTP connections.
