tura

Why we included this project

Tura is a terminal-based coding agent built around a simple idea: much of what an agent spends on tokens goes to context it carries through the loop, not to the work itself. Instead of having the model re-enter after every tool result, it compiles the task into a runtime-managed command graph and runs several steps in a single turn. The project publishes benchmark numbers to back that up, reporting 77.5% fewer tokens than Codex CLI on DeepSWE v1.1 tasks with a comparable verifier success rate, and a balanced mode that spends some of the savings on more reasoning and reaches a higher success rate. For developers and small teams whose agent bills are climbing, or who are tired of watching an agent patch a repo before it understands the goal, Tura is worth testing against your own long-horizon tasks.
