JavaScript, MIT licensed. The project labels itself: android application, code editor and cordova.
Acode runs. An Argusic agent installed it in 12 minutes and hit 6 errors and fixed every one without help on a clean machine with no GPU, and the whole session was recorded.
87 vitest test files pass (723 tests), rspack build compiles to www/build/, dev HTTPS server starts on localhost
What the agent ended up with on a clean machine, in its own words. How this is measured
Measured by Argusic on a fresh machine every time. Every number links to its evidence. Argusic Score 100 of 100 (the mean of this project's run scores).

Subject data from GitHub, linked at the top of this page, refreshed . Test data by Argusic (CC BY 4.0); every number links to a run page with the full log, the recording, and their sha256 hashes.
What was measured
From the run that decided this verdict. Every line is a recorded value, not an estimate.
What went wrong, in the agent's own words
The agent's own words, worst first, never rewritten into advice.
- Node 18 lacks node:util.styleText used by vitest v4/rolldown5 minutes
- codemirror-lsp-client submodule was empty; npm install failed because its prepare script (cm-buildhelper) ran before its own devDependencies were installed4 minutes
- npm install with Node 22 hit arborist bug on package-lock.json from Node 181 minute
- 6 tests in lspMultiClient.test.js failed: multiple instances of @codemirror/state loaded, breaking instanceof checks1 minute
- immersiveFullscreenPrepare.test.js timed out after 5s formatting a 23KB Java file with prettier-plugin-java1 minute
- cordova build/android launch failed (no JDK/Android SDK)
- Install time
- 12 minutes
- Cold machine to finish
- 14 minutes
- Errors hit and fixed
- 6 hit, 6 fixed with no human help
- How the result was proved
- npx vitest run passed: 87 test files, 723 tests passed, 1 skipped (exit 0). rspack compiled successfully (7.27s). Dev server started on port 46713.

What was not measured
The other half, so you can see exactly how far this evidence goes. A gap is printed as a gap and never filled in.
- Peak GPU memory
- this ran on a CPU machine, so there was no GPU to sample
- Behaviour over a long run
- each attempt uses the smallest documented settings and a fixed time budget, so this measures whether it runs, not how it holds up under load
The end of the recording
The last lines of the terminal session that decided this verdict, exactly as they were recorded.

Replay the whole session, every command from a clean machine to this point.
How it was tested
One agent, one container, no human help. It installs the project the way its own documentation says to, runs it, and fixes what breaks. Everything below is recorded as it happened: the terminal session, the log and the exact commit. The full method.
Strengths and limits
Measured facts, not opinions. How this is written.
What went well
- Reached a running state on a clean machine, with the session recorded.
- Installed in 12 minutes.
- Recovered from all 6 errors without a human stepping in, which says the failures are documented well enough to solve.
- Ran without a GPU, so it does not need one to start.
- Licensed MIT, as reported by its host.
What did not, or is not known
- Measured once so far. A single attempt shows it can run, not that it runs reliably.
What it is a reasonable choice for
- Trying it on a laptop or a small server: it reached a running state without a GPU.

[](https://argusic.com/subject/acode)Questions
- Does Acode run?
- Yes. Acode runs. Argusic installed and launched it on a clean machine in 12 minutes, hitting 6 errors on the way, and recorded the session.
- How did Argusic test Acode?
- On a fresh, disposable machine, with every command recorded and the repository pinned at commit b7dbe3d69dcf. One attempt is recorded, and the full method is on the methodology page.
- What did it cost to test Acode?
- The run that produced this verdict cost $0.07: real compute and model cost, not a list price per million tokens. It is recorded on that run's page.
- How long does Acode take to install?
- 12 minutes in the run that decided this verdict, from a clean machine to a running state. That is one measured attempt, not an average.
- Does Acode need a GPU?
- Not to start. Argusic reached a running state on a machine with no GPU.
- What goes wrong when installing Acode?
- 6 things broke in the recorded run, and 6 were fixed without human help. Each one, and the time it cost, is listed on this page.
- Where is the evidence for Acode?
- The recorded run is on this page, each linking to its full log and terminal recording, stored with a sha256 fingerprint so it cannot be quietly altered.
