How it works

STEP 01

Understand the codebase.

The agent scans your files, maps dependencies, and builds a complete picture of your project's architecture.

parallax — pipeline
$ parallax --analyze src/
[SCAN] Indexing 1,247 files across 38 modules
[AST] Building dependency graph ........... ✓
[MAP] Cross-reference analysis ............ ✓
[CTX] Loading .env, tsconfig, package.json
Codebase fingerprint: a7f3c91e
Complexity score: 0.72 (moderate)

Capabilities

Built for the terminal.

Multi-Agent Delegation

Multi-Agent Delegation

Spawn specialized sub-agents for parallel analysis. Divide and conquer at machine speed.

Local File Patching

Local File Patching

Generate and apply precise diffs to your codebase. No manual copy-paste, no merge conflicts.

VPS Management

VPS Management

Execute commands on remote servers directly from your terminal. Deploy, monitor, iterate.

AST-Aware Edits

AST-Aware Edits

Understands your code's structure, not just text. Refactors preserve intent and correctness.

Context Injection

Context Injection

Feed project context, environment variables, and documentation directly into the agent.

Sandbox Execution

Sandbox Execution

Run untrusted code in isolated containers. Full OS-level sandboxing for every agent action.
