I use a custom coding agent for terminal that uses file tools to read and write to my local file system and nothing else, it connects to DeepSeek API.

I start with a prompt to build an app and I enjoy the show as it spits line by line its thought process and in a couple of minutes the final result.

Curious to learn more. How well does file system work? At what scale are you operating? Do you see it scaling well into the future for your needs?

It seems local file system is the default for most folks starting out. I am curious to know when does this break down if ever.

As a solo developer my coding agent is all I need to develop my own apps. It does 90% of the job in 5 mins for apps that would have taken me a couple of months in tedious tasks like routing, crud, auth, themes, admin dashboards, etc.

Take a look for yourself
