Integrates code editing, terminals, CLI tools, language intelligence, debugging, and AI agents in one workspace environment for developers

It takes care to curate a safe software space. Help us do more.

&

+
Native GPU Rendering
free, pro, enterprise
Draws the interface through OpenGL on Linux and Metal on macOS without Electron, so users get a native application instead of a browser-based shell.
+
Multi-Workspace Layout
free, pro, enterprise
Provides nine workspace slots with unlimited terminals, tabs, and windows, allowing users to organize several projects and tasks within one environment.
+
Integrated Terminals
free, pro, enterprise
Embeds splittable terminal tiles that share the editor’s key bindings, allowing shell work and code editing to happen in one window under a single keymap.
+
Command Prompt
free, pro, enterprise
Routes editor operations, window management, language tooling, and agent workflows through one fuzzy-searchable prompt, allowing users to run any action by name without menus. Commands can be chained into aliases or bound to keyboard shortcuts.
+
Key Binding Presets
free, pro, enterprise
Offers standard, vim, and emacs presets that apply to editor buffers, terminals, input boxes, and the file explorer, so users keep familiar muscle memory in every surface.
+
Language Intelligence
free, pro, enterprise
Ships symbol indexing and code-navigation tooling for Go and Python, with Rust and Zig in beta, enabling structural code navigation without separate language-server setup.
+
Integrated Debugger
free, pro, enterprise
Includes a debugger managed from the persistent console, allowing users to inspect running programs without switching to a separate tool.
+
Persistent Console
free, pro, enterprise
Provides a REPL-style console for managing packages, models, extensions, and processes, allowing IDE configuration and control to stay on the keyboard.
+
Coding Agent
free, pro, enterprise
Includes an AI coding assistant that reads and edits files, searches the codebase, and runs commands, allowing users to delegate multi-step tasks from within the workspace. Installed as the rune-agent package; requires a model provider.

Notes

  • Rune is free to download and open source (GPLv3 or later). Paid plans (Rune Pro, Enterprise) raise the Rune Network node limit from 2 to 10 and unlimited respectively, and Pro adds premium support: pricing
  • The extension SDK, rune-go-sdk, is a separate module under Apache-2.0: rune-go-sdk
  • Not to be confused with unrelated software that shares the name Rune (for example, a multiplayer web-game platform and a music player).
