# Agentfly

> Agentfly farms four test stablecoins on one Solana devnet book. nUSDC, nUSDT, nPYUSD, and nUSDe share the reserve, with eight floors around $1.

Agentfly is a free, ad-supported AI code editor for Windows and Linux (macOS is not published yet). It is
funded by advertisers rather than subscriptions, and it credits a share of advertising
revenue to the developer using it.

## Key facts

- Cost to the developer: free. No subscription, trial, or paid tier.
- Editor: Monaco editing surface, integrated terminals, git, workspace search, plain-English
  compiler errors, live collaboration.
- AI: agents that edit across files, run tests, and keep going until done; several agents at
  once on an Agents board; Race mode to compare models on one task; Undo for every turn.
  Four providers or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint (including a local model), on your own key.
- Ad format: one small sponsored card in the corner of the window.
- Ad targeting: a fixed vocabulary of 45 generic tags for language, framework, tool, and
  platform. File contents, paths, and project names are never transmitted.
- Revenue share: the developer receives 50% of the winning ad's clearing CPM.
- Earnings record: an append-only ledger. Entries are never edited or deleted; corrections
  are recorded as reversals that reference the original entry.

## Guides and comparisons

- [A free AI code editor with no subscription and no trial](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/free-ai-code-editor): Agentfly is a full desktop IDE with AI agents built in, free permanently rather than for fourteen days. What it includes, what it costs, and how it is funded.
- [Get paid to code: how much an ad-supported editor pays](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/earn-while-you-code): An honest account of earning while you code in Agentfly - the auction, the revenue share, the arithmetic on a real working month, and why it is not an income.
- [Agentfly vs VS Code: a free alternative, AI agents built in](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/compare/vscode): Agentfly and VS Code share the Monaco editor. What Agentfly adds - AI agents and full git in the box, and a share of ad revenue - and where VS Code still wins.
- [Agentfly vs Cursor: free Cursor alternative, no subscription](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/compare/cursor): Cursor's full plan is monthly. Agentfly runs AI agents on your own API key and pays you a share of ad revenue. Cost, models, and where Cursor wins.
- [Agentfly vs Idlen: two ways to get paid while you code](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/compare/idlen): Both pay developers to see ads while coding. Idlen is a VS Code extension; Agentfly is a complete editor with an auditable ledger. Which suits which situation.
- [Agentfly vs Windsurf (now Devin Desktop): a free alternative](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/compare/windsurf): Windsurf is now Devin Desktop, sold on plans with a usage allowance. Agentfly runs AI agents on your own API key, costs nothing, and pays you instead.
- [Agentfly vs GitHub Copilot: a free Copilot alternative](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/compare/copilot): Copilot adds AI to the editor you have, with monthly limits and paid plans. Agentfly is a full editor with AI agents on your own key - and it pays you instead.

## Documentation

### Start here

- [Installing Agentfly](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/installing-adcode): One click on Windows from the Microsoft Store, a .deb or AppImage on Linux, or one terminal command on either - and how to update or remove the editor afterwards.
- [Getting started with Agentfly in five minutes](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/getting-started-with-adcode): From download to a running program: installing Agentfly, opening a project, and finding every switch you will actually use. The long version of what the editor shows on first launch.
- [Every feature, explained: the full Agentfly tour](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/every-feature-the-full-tour): All twelve feature areas in one walk-through - what each group does, why it exists, and where its documentation lives.
- [Why your first commit asks for your name and email](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/first-commit-name-and-email): Your first commit in Agentfly is refused with a message about a name and email. Nothing is broken: git signs every commit with its author, and your machine has never said who you are. Two commands, once, and it never asks again.

### How Agentfly works

- [What an ad-supported editor owes you](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/what-an-ad-supported-editor-owes-you): Four commitments Agentfly makes about when ads appear, what leaves your machine, and what you get paid — and how each one is enforced rather than promised.
- [Why the ledger is append-only](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/why-the-ledger-is-append-only): An administrator who can edit a balance is an administrator who can steal from you. Here is how Agentfly makes that structurally impossible rather than merely discouraged.
- [How targeting works without reading your code](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/how-targeting-works-without-reading-your-code): Advertisers want to reach Rust developers. Agentfly makes that possible with 45 tags and nothing else — no file contents, no paths, no project names.

### Earning and advertising

- [How you get paid, step by step](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/how-you-get-paid-step-by-step): The complete journey of one advertising dollar: serve, view, receipt, ledger row, balance - with the exact numbers at every step.
- [Publish your first campaign in ten minutes](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/publish-your-first-campaign-in-ten-minutes): Sign in, name the account, create the campaign, attach a creative, fund it, go live - the whole advertiser flow, with what each step costs and when.

### Comparisons

- [Agentfly vs VS Code vs Cursor: an honest comparison](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/adcode-vs-vs-code-vs-cursor): Where Agentfly matches the big editors, where it differs, and where it deliberately will not compete - written to be argued with.

### Editing

- [Accept suggestion with Enter](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-accept-on-enter): With the suggestion list open, pressing Enter takes the suggestion instead of starting a new line.
- [Auto-rename paired tag](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-auto-rename-paired-tag): Change the name of an opening tag and its closing tag changes to match, by itself.
- [Bracket pair colorization](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-bracket-pair-colorization): Brackets get colours. The one that opens and the one that closes are the same colour, so you can see which goes with which.
- [Check spelling in comments](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-spell-check): Misspelled words in comments get a wavy underline, and the fix is one click away on the lightbulb.
- [Close tags automatically](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-auto-close-tags): Type the end of an opening tag and the closing one appears by itself. Type a closing bracket and it finishes the tag you still have open.
- [Code folding](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-code-folding): Collapse a chunk of code down to one line, and open it again when you want it.
- [Colour comments by intent](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-comment-tones): Start a comment with !, ?, or * and it takes a colour. Start one with a second // and it fades, because that is code you commented out.
- [Column selection mode](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-column-selection): Dragging the mouse selects a rectangle of text - a straight column down the page - instead of following the words.
- [Explain errors in plain English](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-plain-english-errors): Confusing error messages get rewritten into a sentence that says what actually went wrong.
- [Indent guides](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-indent-guides): Faint vertical lines show how far in each line is pushed.
- [Inline error and warning lens](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-inline-error-lens): When a line has a mistake, the message about it sits right at the end of that line.
- [Inline git blame](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-inline-git-blame): Beside the line your cursor is on, it quietly says who last changed it and when.
- [Minimap](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-minimap): A tiny picture of the whole file down the right-hand edge, that you can click to jump.
- [Multi-cursor](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-multi-cursor): Put more than one cursor on the page and type in all those places at once.
- [Path autocomplete](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-path-autocomplete): When you are typing the name of another file, it offers you the files that are really there.
- [Render trailing whitespace](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-trailing-whitespace): Extra spaces left hanging at the end of a line are made visible.
- [Start new files from a template](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-file-templates): A brand new file already has the boring first lines in it - the doctype for a web page, the main function for a C program.
- [Sticky scroll](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-sticky-scroll): As you scroll down inside a long function, its name stays stuck at the top of the editor so you never lose track of where you are.
- [Suggest words already in the file](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-word-suggestions): Even with nothing clever available, it will suggest words you have already used nearby.
- [Suggestions as you type](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-suggestions): A little list pops up guessing what you are about to type, so you can pick it instead.
- [TODO and FIXME highlighting](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/editing-todo-highlighting): Notes you leave yourself in comments - TODO, FIXME, HACK - get a colour so they stand out.

### Finding your way

- [Breadcrumbs](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/navigation-breadcrumbs): A line above the editor showing the trail to where you are: the folder, the file, and the function your cursor is inside.
- [Fuzzy file open](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/navigation-fuzzy-file-open): Open any file by typing a few letters of its name. You do not have to get them right, or in order.

- [Go to definition and references](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/navigation-go-to-definition): Click a name to see where it was made, or to see everywhere else it is used. A small preview opens under the line so you do not lose your place.
- [Outline](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/navigation-outline): A list of everything in the file you are looking at - its functions, classes, and sections.
- [Symbol search](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/navigation-symbol-search): Find a function, class, or variable by name anywhere in the project, without knowing which file it is in.

### Formatting

- [Built-in formatter](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/formatting-formatter): Tidies your code for you - puts the spaces, indents and line breaks in the same places every time.
- [Format on save](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/formatting-format-on-save): Every time you save, the file gets tidied first.
- [Lint diagnostics](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/formatting-lint-diagnostics): Underlines the things that are wrong, or look wrong, while you type.
- [Organize imports on save](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/formatting-organize-imports-on-save): When you save, the list of other files your file uses gets sorted, and any it no longer uses are removed.

### Understanding a project

- [Draw trees with connecting lines](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/structure-project-tree-lines): Little lines join each file to the folder it lives in, like a family tree, so you can see what is inside what.
- [Point out classes nothing defines](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/structure-missing-classes): Tells you when you have used a class name that no stylesheet actually defines.
- [Point out rules that style nothing](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/structure-unused-selectors): Tells you when a style rule does not match anything in your project any more.

- [Show the rules that style an element](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/structure-element-to-rules): Click something on the page and see every style rule that changes how it looks.

### Languages

- [Additional language servers](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/language-custom-servers): Tell Agentfly how to start the helper program for a language it does not know about yet.
- [Debug adapter client](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/language-dap-client): Stop your program in the middle of running it, look at what every value actually is, and step through it one line at a time.
- [Language server intelligence](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/language-lsp-client): A helper program that really understands the language you are writing, so Agentfly can offer accurate suggestions, spot mistakes, and know where things are defined.
- [Tree-sitter highlighting](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/language-tree-sitter-highlighting): Colours the code by properly reading it, rather than by pattern-matching the words - so the colours are right even in tricky code.

### The assistant

- [Agent mascots](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-agent-mascots): Each saved agent has its own little character - a shape and a colour - and its face shows how that agent's work is going.
- [Agents working at once](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-parallel-agents): How many agents on the Agents board, and Team roles, may work at the same time. The rest wait their turn as Queued.
- [AI chat workspace](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-chat-widget): A conversation workspace with searchable history, a live working block per answer, copyable code blocks, per-response actions, a jump-to-latest pill, and an interrupted banner with Edit prompt and Try again.
- [AI edit approval](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-edit-policy): Choose how the assistant's edits reach your files: it applies them as it works and you can undo any turn (the default), or each turn's changes wait for you to apply them.
- [AI file tools](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-isolated-workspaces): The assistant reads, edits and runs commands directly in your open project. What it does lands in your real files as it works, and every turn can be undone.
- [AI Team](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-team): Create named agents with their own instructions and models, then let a team divide a task - messaging each other as they work and sharing the project's memory - and bring its results back for review.
- [AI usage](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-usage): Shows your AI activity, daily streaks, tokens and estimated cost, model by model.

- [Free AI in a minute](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-free-key): Get the assistant working for free: a free Google Gemini key, a model already on your computer, or a key you already have.
- [Included AI without a key](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-tagflow): Use the AI included with your verified Agentfly account without buying or pasting an API key.
- [Inline completion](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-inline-completion): Grey text appears ahead of your cursor guessing the rest of what you are writing. Press Tab to take it.
- [Keep going until done](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-keep-going): When the assistant stops at its step limit in the middle of a long job, it carries on by itself instead of waiting for you to say Continue.
- [Live agent view](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-live-agents): Watch every agent at work in the chat: the code it is writing types in as the model produces it, commands show their output as they run, and agents on a Team pass messages you can see.
- [Long chat memory and auto-compact](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-auto-compact): Chats remember: reopen one tomorrow, restart Agentfly or switch model, and the assistant carries on where you left off. When a chat gets long, Agentfly summarises the older part so it never runs out of room.
- [MCP server](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-mcp-server): Lets AI tools outside Agentfly - Claude Code, Codex, and others - read and write the same project notes.
- [Memory capture](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-memory-capture): The assistant writes down decisions and conventions about your project, so it does not need telling twice.
- [Model](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-model): Which particular AI, from that company, answers you.

- [Terminal agent detection](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-terminal-agent-detection): If you start an AI tool in Agentfly's terminal, Agentfly notices and offers to share what it knows about the project with it.
- [The assistant sees your app](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-sees-your-app): The assistant opens the web app you are building in a browser of its own, looks at any page, clicks and types through it like a visitor, and fixes what it finds.
- [What the assistant can do](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/ai-agent-tools): The assistant can change files, run project checks, inspect responsive layouts and accessibility, keep a dev server running, and show its plan as a checklist.

Nothing is broken: git signs every commit with its author, and your machine has never said who you are. Two commands, once, and it never asks again.
- [Installing Agentfly](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/installing-adcode): One click on Windows from the Microsoft Store, a .deb or AppImage on Linux, or one terminal command on either - and how to update or remove the editor afterwards.
- [Every feature, explained: the full Agentfly tour](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/every-feature-the-full-tour): All twelve feature areas in one walk-through - what each group does, why it exists, and where its documentation lives.
- [Agentfly vs VS Code vs Cursor: an honest comparison](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/adcode-vs-vs-code-vs-cursor): Where Agentfly matches the big editors, where it differs, and where it deliberately will not compete - written to be argued with.
- [Publish your first campaign in ten minutes](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/publish-your-first-campaign-in-ten-minutes): Sign in, name the account, create the campaign, attach a creative, fund it, go live - the whole advertiser flow, with what each step costs and when.

- [Getting started with Agentfly in five minutes](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/getting-started-with-adcode): From download to a running program: installing Agentfly, opening a project, and finding every switch you will actually use. The long version of what the editor shows on first launch.
- [Why the ledger is append-only](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/why-the-ledger-is-append-only): An administrator who can edit a balance is an administrator who can steal from you. Here is how Agentfly makes that structurally impossible rather than merely discouraged.
- [What an ad-supported editor owes you](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/what-an-ad-supported-editor-owes-you): Four commitments Agentfly makes about when ads appear, what leaves your machine, and what you get paid — and how each one is enforced rather than promised.
- [How targeting works without reading your code](https://adcode.bluethenics.com/docs/how-targeting-works-without-reading-your-code): Advertisers want to reach Rust developers. Agentfly makes that possible with 45 tags and nothing else — no file contents, no paths, no project names.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is Agentfly?

Agentfly is a free, ad-supported code editor. It provides Monaco-based editing, integrated terminals, git, workspace search, and AI assistance. Instead of charging a subscription, it shows an occasional sponsored card in the corner of the editor and credits a share of the advertising revenue to the developer using it.

### How much does Agentfly cost?

Agentfly is free. There is no subscription, no trial, and no paid tier. The editor is funded by advertisers, and a share of what they pay goes to the developer rather than only to the vendor.

### Is the AI in Agentfly free?

Yes. Agentfly includes free AI models from its partners, Tagflow AI and Heabsy. Sign in with a verified account and start building - no API key and no bill, within a daily allowance that resets at midnight UTC. You can also use your own provider key or a model running on your computer.

### How much can you earn using Agentfly?

Advertisers bid in a second-price auction from $1.00 per 500 impressions. The developer receives 50% of the winning ad's clearing price, so earnings vary with live demand. Agentfly is a way to use a capable editor for free with some money coming back, not a promise of income.

### Does Agentfly read my source code?

No. Ads are targeted using a fixed list of 45 generic tags such as the programming language and framework in use - for example 'lang:rust' or 'fw:react'. File contents, file paths, and project names never leave the machine. AI features send only what you explicitly ask them to send.

### Is Agentfly open source?

Yes. The editor, this website and the ad server are open source under the Apache License 2.0, in one public repository at github.com/bluethenics/adcode. You can read the code, build it yourself, change it and share your version. The Agentfly name and logo are not covered by the licence, so a changed copy needs its own name. Earnings and payouts are handled by Agentfly's own server, which pays only for views whose receipt it can verify.

### When does Agentfly show ads?

Sponsored cards appear in the corner of the window and never interrupt typing, debugging, or a running terminal command. They are rate limited, they can be reduced or switched off entirely in settings, and the server enforces a cap that the client cannot loosen.

### How are Agentfly earnings tracked?

Every credit is a row on an append-only ledger visible in the editor and on the web dashboard. Entries are never edited or deleted; a correction is recorded as a separate reversal that references the original, so the full history stays auditable.

### What platforms does Agentfly run on?

Agentfly runs on Windows and Linux; a macOS build is waiting on Apple notarisation. On Windows it installs from the Microsoft Store in one click; on Linux there is a .deb and an AppImage, or a single terminal command on either. It updates itself when a new version is released.
