I released the inaugural 0.1.0 of Knosh yesterday. Knosh is a Kotlin NO-SHell coding agent harness (hence, "Knosh"), designed for "one-shot" requests. It supports supplying a full prompt or having Knosh and your chosen model perform more structured tasks, like updating KDocs in specified files.

While Knosh has a dozen tools at its disposal, there is no Bash or similar shell tool, which limits what the agent can do but limits how much trouble the agent can cause. Mostly, this is a testbed for me as I work to get open models to be useful assistants, as an alternative to the frontier models.
