This project provides a toolkit for users to bypass usage limits and restrictions for AugmentCode, a service offering AI-powered coding assistance. It targets developers using IDEs like VS Code, Cursor, and JetBrains, enabling continued free access to Claude Sonnet 4 model calls.

How It Works

The tool operates by manipulating local IDE configurations and user data to mimic new user states. It leverages techniques like cleaning local databases, modifying telemetry IDs, and managing session identifiers to circumvent official tracking mechanisms. This allows users to repeatedly claim free trial quotas or utilize team invitation strategies for indefinite access.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Install: Clone the repository and install dependencies (pip install . or pip install -r requirements.txt), then run python main.py for the GUI or use augment-tools CLI commands. Standalone executables are also available for Windows.
• Prerequisites: Python 3.7+ (for source/portable versions).
• Usage: Close all IDE instances and log out of AugmentCode before running.
• Docs: https://github.com/BasicProtein/AugmentCode-Free

Highlighted Details

• Supports multiple IDEs: VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and JetBrains products.
• Offers both GUI and CLI interfaces for user preference.
• Claims to bypass AugmentCode's invitation and trial limitations.
• Includes mechanisms for cleaning local data and modifying telemetry IDs.

Maintenance & Community

The project is actively updated, with recent changes focusing on macOS compatibility, JetBrains support, and adapting to AugmentCode's evolving anti-abuse measures. A Telegram group is provided for communication.

Licensing & Compatibility

The repository is licensed under the MIT License. This permissive license allows for commercial use and integration with closed-source projects.

Limitations & Caveats

The project's effectiveness is dependent on AugmentCode's ongoing security measures and may break with future updates. The developers acknowledge that their methods "severely infringe upon the official's normal operating rights" and warn that account blocking may still occur, potentially related to network environment.
