03 — Core Modes

Six Modes. One App. Every AI Need Covered.

Electra's routing agent reads what you type and automatically switches to the right mode. You can also switch manually at any time with a single command.

/chat
Chat Mode
Conversational AI for questions, research, brainstorming, and general help. Persistent history across sessions. Think of it as your personal AI that actually remembers you.
/coder
Coder Mode
Autonomous coding agent that reads, writes, and executes your code. /plan activates a structured Architect → Developer → Reviewer pipeline. Live diff preview, auto rollback, per-project conversation memory.
/writer
Writer Mode
Professional content generation — blogs, essays, emails, documentation, marketing copy. Enforced quality rules that eliminate AI tells. /refine, /outline, /translate, /export all available.
/novel
Novel Mode
Full long-form book pipeline. Blueprint → overview → 25-chapter outline → scene-by-scene generation → complete manuscript. Auto-exports to EPUB and PDF. From prompt to publishable book.
/command
Command Mode
Natural-language Linux shell. No knowledge of bash required — describe what you want to do, Electra generates and executes the correct command. Dry-run mode shows what will run before it runs.
/gui
GUI / IDE Mode
A full VSCode-style interface: file tree · live editor · AI chat panel. 18 switchable themes. Streaming output with live thinking display. Runs from terminal or standalone with electra --gui.

05 — Standout Features

Features That Actually Matter

Electra isn't a chatbot with a terminal skin. It's a fully integrated AI workbench with capabilities competitors don't ship.

⚡
Floating Electra Bar
A lightweight always-on-top input widget that floats over your desktop. Type anything — a question, a command, a file request — and press Enter. Electra's routing agent decides what to do and responds in your terminal. Your entire AI stack accessible from one hotkey.
📱
Telegram Remote Control
Install the Telegram bridge and your PC becomes accessible from your phone anywhere in the world. Send a message — run commands, write files, manage services, ask questions — and Electra executes it on your desktop. Your PC in your pocket.
🔧
Self-Repair AI
Electra detects its own failures and automatically generates a fix plugin. If something breaks, it doesn't crash — it analyses the error, writes a patch, and self-heals. An AI system that maintains itself.
🏠
Smart Home Control
Connected to Home Assistant? Tell Electra to turn on the lights, lock the front door, check the thermostat, or set the scene — in plain language, from the same bar you use for everything. Your desktop AI becomes your whole-home AI.
🧠
Long-Term Memory
ChromaDB vector memory stores what matters across sessions. Electra remembers your projects, your preferences, your conventions, your context — across every conversation, indefinitely. The first AI terminal that actually knows you.
📚
Novel → Published Book
One prompt generates a full structured book: blueprint, chapter outlines, scene-by-scene writing, and auto-compilation into a fully-formatted EPUB and PDF — cover, copyright, chapters, author links. Ready for Kindle, Kobo, or print-on-demand.
🔌
Plugin Engine
Extend Electra with custom Python plugins: ROUTER, AGENT, HOOK, or COMMAND types. Plugins get full access to conversation context, mode, and model. GUI plugins can register live sidebar panels. Community contributions welcome via PR.
💰
Finance Bot — 33 Income Streams
A fully autonomous income engine built into Electra. Type /hustle and it goes to work — writing SEO blog posts, generating KDP books (EPUB + PDF), creating print-on-demand designs, scanning freelance job boards, building referral content, drafting Substack newsletters, and preparing an AppSumo listing for Electra itself. 33 simultaneous income streams. Nothing moves without your approval. Full guide →
🤖
Heartbeat Agent

07 — Who This Is For

Built for Everyone. Mastered by no one yet.

Electra is for the developer who wants to ship faster. The writer who wants to create without friction. The server admin who wants a natural-language shell. The hobbyist controlling their smart home from a terminal. The person who has never touched a command line and now never needs to.

You don't need to know Linux. You don't need to know AI. You just need to know what you want.

👤
For New Users
The command line is optional. Managing packages manually is optional. Just describe what you want — install this, fix that, change this setting — and your computer handles it. The AI terminal that finally removes the Linux learning curve.
💻
For Developers
Vibe code at a scale no other terminal tool matches. Deploy a full codebase from a description. 90+ models including the world's best coding models. A diff-preview system showing every change before it's written. An autonomous coder that keeps going until it works.
✍️
For Creators
Blog posts, full novels, essays, marketing copy, documentation — all in an afternoon. Electra writes with enforced quality rules that eliminate AI tells. Research any topic and get a complete report. Create at a speed that was impossible a year ago.
