Augment Code vs Hyrax

Augment assists.
Hyrax executes.

Augment Code is an AI coding assistant with a 400K+ file context engine. Its Auggie CLI can run headless in CI to make multi-file changes and open a PR. Hyrax audits the whole codebase and verifies each fix against your test suite before opening a PR you approve.

The difference

Same surface area. Hyrax does the work.

Augment Code
  • Context engine indexes 400K+ files
  • Auggie CLI runs headless in CI to fix and open PRs
  • Driven by a developer's prompt, not a codebase-wide audit
  • Credit burnout: 'burning through credits way too fast' (Reddit)
Hyrax
  • Executes fixes end-to-end autonomously
  • 13-step verification including CI pipeline
  • Transparent pricing with included credits
  • No credits, no surprises

The edge Augment Code misses

A fix isn't done until it's verified.

Augment Code stops at a suggestion or a scoped patch. Every Hyrax fix runs a 13-step verification before it can merge. Baseline tests are established first, the fix is applied, and the full pipeline confirms nothing else broke. Nothing ships on trust.
