FAQ

Common questions about Nexus.

What exactly is Nexus?

Nexus is an agent-native runtime for engineering teams. Unlike chatbot interfaces or copilot plugins, Nexus deploys persistent AI agents that can reason across your entire codebase, use tools (compilers, test runners, linters), and retain memory across sessions. Think of it as a new layer in your infrastructure — one purpose-built for autonomous software engineering.

How is Nexus different from a chatbot like ChatGPT or Claude?

Chatbots are designed for conversation; Nexus agents are designed for action. A Nexus agent can be deployed on a Git repository, given goals (e.g., “refactor the auth module”), and trusted to plan, execute, test, and iterate autonomously. It remembers what it learned across sessions, uses tools to verify its work, and integrates into your CI/CD pipeline.

Do I need prior AI or ML experience?

Not at all. Nexus is designed for software engineers, not ML researchers. You configure agents with a simple YAML file, deploy them with a single CLI command, and review their work through standard Git workflows.

What languages and frameworks are supported?

TypeScript, Python, Go, Rust, Java, C++, Ruby, and Swift are all fully supported out of the box. The platform automatically detects your project's language and toolchain during initialization.

Can Nexus integrate with my existing CI/CD pipeline?

Yes. Nexus agents integrate natively with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and other CI providers. Agents can be triggered on pull requests or run autonomously on a schedule.

How does Nexus handle security?

Nexus agents run with the permissions you define. The nexus.yaml manifest specifies allowed paths, approved tools, and required review gates. The platform is SOC 2 compliant and can be deployed on your own infrastructure.

Is there a free tier?

Yes. Nexus offers a free tier for individual developers and small teams. All plans include a 14-day free trial with no credit card required.
