About

ZUS is a desktop IDE with an AI agent built in. The agent reads your codebase, plans, edits and runs commands within the permissions you grant. You read every diff before keeping it, undo what it got wrong, and see each subagent's tool calls in Team Inspector. Your project index and context stay on your machine, and you connect your own AI provider. Built on Tauri 2 and Rust, with a ~20 MB Windows installer. Runs on Windows, macOS (Apple Silicon) and Linux.

AI Summary

ZUS is an AI-native integrated development environment (IDE) that incorporates an AI agent to assist with coding tasks while allowing for human oversight of changes. It supports Windows, macOS, and Linux, and is built on Tauri 2 and Rust, with a compact installation size of approximately 20 MB.

A source that found nothing is a measurement. A source that has not run is a gap. Neither means the launch lacks the thing.
