Loki Mode Documentation

The flagship product of Autonomi -- an autonomous, spec-driven build system with a built-in trust layer. It does not call work done until it is verified: the RARV-C closure loop, 8 quality gates, the completion council, and the verified-completion evidence gate all have to clear before completion is accepted. Provider-agnostic: Claude Code, OpenAI Codex CLI, Cline, and Aider.

Spec-driven: turn a spec -- a PRD, GitHub issue, YAML feature file, or any natural-language brief -- into a fully deployed, production-ready application, with verification built in so "done" means verified, not just attempted.

What is Loki Mode?

Loki Mode is an enterprise-grade autonomous AI development orchestrator that:

  • Built-in trust layer (verified completion) - Does not call work done until it is verified: the RARV-C closure loop, 8 quality gates, the completion council, and the verified-completion evidence gate all have to clear before completion is accepted
  • Spec-driven development - Any spec (PRD, GitHub issue, OpenAPI/YAML doc, or one-line brief) drives the build end to end
  • Executes complete SDLC phases - From requirements to deployment
  • Manages multiple AI agents - Parallel execution with up to 10+ concurrent agents
  • Provider-agnostic - runs on Claude Code (Tier 1), Cline (Tier 2), Codex / Aider (Tier 3 degraded); no vendor lock-in. Gemini CLI deprecated v7.5.18.
  • MCP server - 34 tools (33 always available; loki_memory_redact is gated on LOKI_MANAGED_AGENTS/LOKI_MANAGED_MEMORY) plus 3 resources and 2 prompts for integration with MCP-aware clients. Launch with loki mcp.
  • Learns across projects - Cross-project memory improves over time
  • Provides enterprise controls - Authentication, audit logging, sandboxing

Key Features

For Individuals & Startups

  • Zero Configuration - Works out of the box with sensible defaults
  • Spec to Production - Provide a spec (PRD markdown, GitHub issue, YAML brief), Loki handles the rest
  • Provider-Agnostic - runs on Claude, Cline, Codex, or Aider, no vendor lock-in (Gemini deprecated v7.5.18)
  • LSP Grounding - First-class agent tools for symbol verification via mcp/lsp_proxy.py (v7.7.0+; pyright, typescript-language-server, gopls, rust-analyzer, jdtls; lsp_get_diagnostics regression fully fixed v7.7.14)
  • Cross-Project Learning - AI improves from every session
  • Dark Dashboard - Vercel/Linear-inspired dark theme with sidebar navigation (replaces the deprecated VS Code extension as of v7.2.0)

For Enterprises

  • Token Authentication - Secure API access with scoped tokens
  • Audit Logging - Compliance-ready JSONL audit trails
  • Docker Sandbox - Isolated secure execution environment
  • Project Registry - Multi-project orchestration
  • Staged Autonomy - Approval gates for sensitive operations
  • 8-Gate Quality System ([[Quality Gates]]) - Static analysis, test suite (pass/fail), blind 3-reviewer code review with severity blocking, anti-sycophancy Devil's Advocate, mock-integrity detection, test-mutation detection, documentation coverage (v6.75.0), and Magic Modules debate; plus a conditional backward-compatibility auditor (healing mode, v6.67.0, not numbered), the verified-completion evidence gate with inconclusive disclosure (v7.28.0), and held-out spec evals for anti-reward-hacking (v7.28.0)
  • Guided First Build - loki quickstart: four questions to a running build, with the real cost estimate shown before any spend, and a consent-gated Claude Code install offer when no provider is found (v7.29.0)
  • Completion Council - 3-member voting system with anti-sycophancy checks
  • Security Hardening - Path traversal, XSS, injection, and memory leak protections
  • TLS/HTTPS Dashboard - Encrypted API and dashboard connections
  • OIDC/SSO Authentication - Enterprise identity provider integration
  • RBAC Roles - Admin, operator, viewer, auditor role model
  • Prometheus Metrics - OpenMetrics /metrics endpoint for monitoring
  • Branch Protection - Agent sessions auto-create feature branches with PRs
  • Log Integrity - SHA-256 chain-hashed tamper-evident audit entries (cross-file chain verification fixed v7.7.15: new verify_all_logs() walks rotated daily logs in mtime order; previously verify_log_integrity false-negatived on any file beyond the first-ever)
  • Context Window Tracking - Real-time gauge, timeline, and per-agent breakdown of context usage
  • Notification Triggers - Configurable alerts for context thresholds, task failures, budget limits
