Renderer UI

• React components in src/renderer own panels, editor surfaces, chat, plan views, and user-facing interaction flows.

Agent Runtime

• src/renderer/agent is now a first-class runtime subsystem covering orchestration, planning, context flow, tool invocation, and application-level coordination.

State and Session

• Renderer-side stores and modes manage UI state, conversation state, checkpoints, branches, and session lifecycle.

Frontend Services

• Lightweight client services in the renderer coordinate terminal UX, completions, workspace/session helpers, and requests that cross into Electron APIs.

Renderer Workers

• Browser workers handle compute-heavy renderer work such as text/diff processing, while Monaco language workers keep editor language features off the UI thread.

Preload Bridge

• src/main/preload.ts exposes a typed contextBridge surface so the renderer can access privileged features without direct Node access.

IPC Handlers

• src/main/ipc/*.ts is the contract boundary where renderer requests are validated and routed into main-process capabilities.

Shared Contracts

• src/shared contains cross-process types, config, utilities, and shared error definitions used by both renderer and main code.

Main Process Services

• src/main owns privileged capabilities: window/app lifecycle, filesystem and shell boundaries, LLM backends, MCP backends, LSP management, indexing, and auxiliary desktop services.

Indexing Worker

• src/main/indexing/indexer.worker.ts moves indexing work onto a Node worker thread so parsing, embedding, and vector-store updates do not block the Electron main thread.

Process Isolation

• The renderer stays focused on UX and orchestration, while the main process contains privileged operations behind explicit IPC boundaries.

Threaded Work

• Heavy background work is split between renderer workers and a dedicated Node indexing worker, so expensive tasks do not stall the app shell.

Operational Safety

• The preload bridge, shared contracts, and main-process security layers keep capability exposure narrow and auditable.

# 1. Clone project
git clone https://gitee.com/adnaan/adnify.git
cd adnify

# 2. Install dependencies
npm install

# 3. Start dev server
npm run dev

# 1. Replace brand assets
# Put them under public/brand/:
# icons/ app icons, logos/ in-app logos, ip/ character assets, welcome/ splash/welcome assets

# 2. Build installer
npm run dist

# Generated files in release/ directory

Adnify keeps its brand resources in public/brand/. The README hero, welcome screens, app icons, and assistant IP assets all reference this folder, so future brand replacements stay in one predictable place.

Dark Logo

Light Logo

App Icon

Icons are generated from public/brand/logos/*.png. After replacing the logo source files, run:

npm run assets:icons

See public/brand/README.md for more details.

1. Click settings icon in bottom-left or press Ctrl+,
2. Select AI provider in Provider tab and enter API Key
3. Select model and save

Supports OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek, Ollama, and custom APIs

Context References: Type @ to select files, or use @codebase, @git, @terminal, @symbols, @web for special references

Slash Commands: /file, /clear, /chat, /agent and other quick commands

Code Modification: Switch to Agent Mode, enter instruction, AI generates Diff preview then accept or reject

Inline Edit: Select code and press Ctrl+K, enter modification instruction

Open Settings → Index tab, select Embedding provider (recommend Jina AI), configure API Key and start indexing. After completion, AI can use semantic search.

Switch to Plan Mode and engage in multi-turn conversations with the AI to clarify requirements. The AI will automatically create an in-depth step-by-step execution plan, decomposing complex tasks into multiple sub-tasks and managing dependencies and execution order.

Skills are instruction packages that give AI specialized capabilities (e.g., optimization for specific frameworks, complex test writing).

1. Browse & Install:
   • Open Settings → Skills tab.
   • Search Market: Click "Search Market" to find community-contributed skills on skills.sh.
   • GitHub Install: Enter a GitHub repo URL containing a SKILL.md file to clone it directly.
   • Create Manually: Create an exclusive skill for the current project and edit the generated SKILL.md template.
2. How it Works:
   • Enabled skills are automatically injected into the AI's System Prompt.
   • When a task touches on the skill's domain, the AI will automatically follow the expert instructions in the skill package.
3. Management:
   • You can enable/disable specific skills in settings at any time, or click the "Folder" icon to edit the skill's source code directly.

Work Modes: Chat 💬 (pure conversation) / Agent 🤖 (single task agent) / Plan 🧠 (task orchestration)

This project uses a custom license with main terms:

✅ Permitted Use

• Personal learning, research, non-commercial use
• Personal development projects (not for external sale)

⚠️ Requires Written Authorization

• Team distribution and use (teams with more than 5 members)
• Commercial use (including but not limited to: external sales, paid services, integration into commercial products)
• Enterprise internal use (companies, organizations, legal entities)

❌ Strictly Prohibited

• Unauthorized modification and distribution or sale
• Bundling into other products for sale
• Removing or modifying software name, author copyright, repository address, etc.
• Claiming as your own work or concealing original author information

📧 Authorization Request

• Commercial licensing contact: adnaan.worker@gmail.com
• Team usage authorization contact: adnaan.worker@gmail.com
• Please specify use case, team size, business model, etc.

See LICENSE file for details

Q: Why so many requirements in your license? Looks more complex than MIT?

A: Because I've been hurt before 😭

Seriously, I've seen too many of these operations:

• Fork an open-source project, change the name and skin, claim it's "independently developed"
• Delete author info and repo address completely, as if the code appeared from nowhere
• Sell it for money, take outsourcing projects, don't give the original author a penny, won't even give a star
• Even worse, some use it as training materials, students think the teacher wrote it
• Companies directly bundle it into their products for sale without mentioning the original author

I'm not against commercialization, really. Want to use it commercially? Come on, send an email, maybe we can even collaborate. But sneakily erasing my name to make money? That's too much, right?

Q: Will I accidentally violate the rules if I use it for personal learning?

A: No! Personal learning, research, graduation projects, side projects—use it freely! As long as you:

1. Don't delete my name and repo address
2. Don't sell it or provide paid services
3. Don't bundle it into other products for sale

That simple, I'm not trying to make things difficult 😊

Q: If I want to use it internally at my company/team, does that count as commercial use?

A:

• Small teams (≤5 people) internal use: If it's a startup team or small studio internal tool, not sold externally, generally okay, but recommend sending an email to notify
• Company/large team use: Requires written authorization, even for internal tools
• External services: Regardless of team size, if providing paid services or selling products externally, commercial authorization is required

If unsure, send me an email, I'm easy to talk to (really). Authorization process is simple, fees are reasonable.

Q: Can I modify the code? Can I distribute it?

A:

• Personal modification: Yes, but for personal use only
• Distribute modified version: No, unless you get written authorization
• Contribute code: Welcome to submit PRs to the official repository, this is encouraged!

Q: Why not just use GPL or MIT?

A:

• MIT is too permissive: Allows anyone to use commercially freely, can't protect author's rights
• GPL is too strict: Requires derivative works to also be open source, limits reasonable commercial cooperation
• Custom license: Protects author's rights while allowing reasonable commercial cooperation, it's a balance

My license core is one thing: You can use it, you can learn from it, but commercial use and team distribution require authorization, don't pretend you wrote it.

Simply put, open source isn't "free for you to abuse," it's "I'm willing to share, but please respect my work."

If you agree with this philosophy, welcome to star ⭐️, that's more important than anything.
