Blackbox AI
Blackbox AI is an inference and coding-agent platform that routes 300+ open and closed models through Blackbox Router, a single OpenAI-compatible endpoint, and exposes them across CLI and API surfaces to provide repository-aware coding agents, streamed run logs, and pull requests. An Enterprise Inference tier runs a chosen open-weight model on single-tenant capacity reserved for one customer, and the platform provides end-to-end encryption with zero data retention, stripping personally identifiable information before prompts reach a closed model on Enterprise plans.
Command Line, marketed as Blackbox CLI, is the platform’s open-source agentic coding agent for the terminal. It reads a repository’s conventions and, in plan mode, decomposes a task into ordered steps that can be approved, commented on, or rewritten before any change applies. It picks up AGENTS.md, plugins, hooks, skills, and MCP servers with no configuration, and a headless -p mode runs it inside scripts and CI pipelines. The /multi-agent command sends the same task to up to four agents at once, pairing Blackbox’s own agent with third-party ones such as Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, and OpenCode. Each agent works on its own Git worktree, and a Chairman LLM evaluates the implementations and selects the best result. Alongside the CLI, an Agents API dispatches coding agents to a repository over HTTP to create runs, stream logs, and open pull requests. The VS Code extension that once supplied inline suggestions, chat, and codebase Q&A within the editor was discontinued, and Blackbox AI now directs that work to the CLI and the Agents API.
