AUTO-CODEX (autocodex-gen)

Intent-Driven, Multi-Language Code Generator — published on PyPI

AUTO-CODEX is a developer tool that converts human intent into working code using a simple CLI.
It supports project initialization, multi-language code generation, and code improvement, making it ideal for students, hackathons, rapid prototyping, and AI-assisted development workflows.

• Intent-Driven Development
  Write what you want to build in plain English.

• Multi-Language Code Generation
  Generate code for:

• Python

• JavaScript

• C

• Java
  (Easily extendable)

• CLI-Based Workflow

Installation

pip install autocodex-gen

Verify installation:

autocodex --help

---

Quick Start

1️ Initialize a Project

autocodex init

Creates the required structure and prepares the workspace.

---

2️ Write Your Intent

Edit the file:

intent/idea.md

Example:

Build a simple calculator with add, subtract, multiply, and divide functions.

---

3️ Generate Code (Multi-Language)

autocodex generate python
autocodex generate javascript
autocodex generate c
autocodex generate java

Generated files appear in:

projects/generated_app/

---

4️ Improve Existing Code

autocodex improve

• Refactors generated code
• Improves structure
• Updates documentation automatically

How It Works

1. Reads intent from intent/idea.md
2. Detects target language
3. Generates language-specific starter code
4. Writes clean, runnable files
5. Updates documentation automatically

(Mock mode runs locally — AI mode can be plugged in later.)
