CairnIndependent thinking. Open source.
Small stones.
New paths.
We build tools that make complex things feel natural. Autonomous agents, thoughtful interfaces, and experiments at the edges of code.
A marker for what comes next.
In the workspace
Less handoff.
More making.
Cairn Code brings the agent into your development workflow. It explores your project, makes focused edits, and checks the result with your own tools.

- Result
Context before action
Explore the project and read the relevant source before deciding what needs to change.
Precision over guesswork
Keep edits focused on the task, with clear boundaries around the files being changed.
Evidence before done
Use the project's builds and tests to check the work. A plausible answer is only a beginning.
Why Cairn
A little direction.
A lot of possibility.
A cairn is a simple thing: a few stones, carefully placed, that help someone find their way. That's how we think about software.
We start with what intelligence makes possible and build around the people using it. Sometimes that means an agent working alongside you. Sometimes it's a flower and a poem that make you pause.
Useful by intention. Open to discovery.
