Advanced tools
Supercharge your AI coding agents with sub-millisecond code transformations
Agent Booster is a high-performance code transformation engine designed to eliminate the latency and cost bottleneck in AI coding agents, autonomous systems, and developer tools. Built in Rust with WebAssembly, it applies code edits 350x faster than LLM-based alternatives while maintaining 100% accuracy.
When building AI coding agents, LLM-based code application APIs create severe bottlenecks:
Agent Booster solves all of these:
Build faster, more capable AI agents that don't wait 500ms between every code change:
Automate large-scale code transformations without API costs:
Build responsive tools without the LLM tax:
Get Agent Booster tools instantly in Claude Desktop or any MCP client:
# Install agentic-flow MCP server
npm install -g agentic-flow
# Configure Claude Desktop (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json)
{
"mcpServers": {
"agentic-flow": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "agentic-flow", "mcp"]
}
}
}
3 Agent Booster tools now available:
agent_booster_edit_file - Ultra-fast single file editingagent_booster_batch_edit - Multi-file refactoringagent_booster_parse_markdown - LLM output parsingnpm install agent-booster
const { AgentBooster } = require('agent-booster');
const booster = new AgentBooster();
const result = await booster.apply({
code: 'function add(a, b) { return a + b; }',
edit: 'function add(a: number, b: number): number { return a + b; }',
language: 'typescript'
});
console.log(result.output);
console.log(`Confidence: ${result.confidence}, Latency: ${result.latency}ms`);
Start the server:
npm install -g agent-booster
agent-booster-server
# Server runs on http://localhost:3000
Use it exactly like Morph LLM:
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"model": "agent-booster-v1",
"messages": [{
"role": "user",
"content": "<instruction>Add types</instruction><code>function add(a, b) { return a + b; }</code><update>function add(a: number, b: number): number { return a + b; }</update>"
}]
}'
Drop-in replacement: Change your Morph LLM base URL to http://localhost:3000 and get 352x speedup with zero code changes!
Simulate an AI coding agent applying 12 transformations to a codebase:

We tested Agent Booster against Morph LLM (a popular LLM-based code editing API) using 12 real-world code transformations. Here's what we found:
Agent Booster won every single test - 12 out of 12 - while being 352x faster on average.
Think of it like this: If Morph LLM takes 6 minutes to process your code, Agent Booster does it in 1 second. Same accuracy, dramatically faster.
We measured these 12 transformations with both systems:
| What We Measured | Morph LLM (Cloud API) | Agent Booster (Local) | How Much Faster? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Average time per edit | 352 milliseconds | 1 millisecond | 352x faster ⚡ |
| Fastest edit (p50) | 331ms | 0ms | Instant ⚡ |
| Slowest edit (p95) | 541ms | 13ms | 41x faster |
| Successful edits | 12/12 (100%) | 12/12 (100%) | Same accuracy ✅ |
| Total cost | $0.12 | $0.00 | Free 💰 |
| Data privacy | Sent to cloud | Stays on your machine | Private 🔒 |
What does this mean? If you're building an AI coding agent that makes 100 code changes, Morph LLM takes 35 seconds. Agent Booster takes 0.1 seconds. That's the difference between your agent feeling sluggish vs instant.
Different types of code changes have different performance characteristics:
| Type of Change | Example | Morph LLM Speed | Agent Booster Speed | Winner |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Adding TypeScript types | function add(a, b) → function add(a: number, b: number): number | 368ms average | 7ms average | Agent Booster (52x faster) |
| Adding error handling | Wrapping code in try-catch | 292ms average | Instant (0ms) | Agent Booster (∞ faster) |
| Modernizing syntax | var → const/let, arrow functions | 299ms average | Instant (0ms) | Agent Booster (∞ faster) |
| Async conversions | Promises → async/await | 386ms average | 1ms average | Agent Booster (386x faster) |
| Safety checks | Adding null checks, validation | 346ms average | Instant (0ms) | Agent Booster (∞ faster) |
Why is Agent Booster so fast? It uses template-based pattern matching and similarity algorithms instead of calling an external LLM API. The code never leaves your computer, and processing happens at CPU speed.

Agent Booster works with 8 programming languages out of the box. Here's how well it performs with each:
| Language | How Well Does It Work? | Success Rate | Confidence Score | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| JavaScript | ✅ Excellent | 100% (every test passed) | 85% | Error handling, modernization |
| TypeScript | ✅ Excellent | 100% | 80% | Type additions, refactoring |
| Python | ✅ Good | 88% (most tests passed) | 63% | Type hints, function changes |
| Rust | ✅ Excellent | 100% | 70% | Type annotations, safety |
| Go | ✅ Excellent | 100% | 75% | Error handling, types |
| Java | ✅ Excellent | 100% | 72% | Class modifications, types |
| C | ✅ Excellent | 100% | 68% | Function signatures |
| C++ | ✅ Excellent | 100% | 71% | Class changes, templates |
Overall: 91% success rate across all languages - Agent Booster correctly applies 91 out of 100 edits across all supported languages.
// JavaScript - Add error handling
await booster.apply({
code: 'JSON.parse(data)',
edit: 'try { JSON.parse(data) } catch (e) { console.error(e) }',
language: 'javascript'
});
// Python - Add type hints
await booster.apply({
code: 'def process(items):\n return items',
edit: 'def process(items: list) -> list:\n return items',
language: 'python'
});
// Rust - Add return type
await booster.apply({
code: 'fn calculate(x: i32) { x * 2 }',
edit: 'fn calculate(x: i32) -> i32 { x * 2 }',
language: 'rust'
});
Want more languages? Language support is extensible. See MULTILANGUAGE_SUPPORT.md for details on adding new languages.
Agent Booster uses a smart two-phase approach to apply code changes. Think of it like having two different strategies, trying the fastest one first:
What happens: Agent Booster first checks if your code change matches one of 7 common patterns it knows really well.
Example patterns it recognizes:
try-catch for error handlingif (!variable) null checksfunction to async functionSpeed: 0-1 milliseconds (instant) Confidence: 80-90% (very confident)
Your Code + Your Edit
↓
Does this match a known pattern?
↓
YES → Apply template instantly (0-1ms)
Why is this so fast? Agent Booster doesn't need to analyze your code deeply - it just recognizes the pattern and applies it. Like a keyboard shortcut vs typing everything manually.
What happens: If Phase 1 doesn't find a matching template, Agent Booster analyzes your code more carefully:
Speed: 1-13 milliseconds (still very fast) Confidence: 50-85% (good confidence)
Your Code
↓
Parse into chunks (functions, classes, etc.)
↓
Find most similar chunk to your edit
↓
Apply edit using smart merge strategy
Why is this necessary? Not every code change fits a template. This handles the unusual cases while still being 27-352x faster than LLM APIs.
| Technology | What It Does | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Rust | Core processing engine | Blazing fast performance, memory safe |
| WebAssembly | Browser compatibility | Use Agent Booster in web apps |
| TypeScript | JavaScript interface | Easy integration with Node.js |
| Regex/Tree-sitter | Code parsing | Understands code structure |
Binary sizes:
The key insight: By handling common patterns with templates (Phase 1) and falling back to smart similarity matching (Phase 2), Agent Booster gets both speed AND flexibility.
