Oxlo
The catalog entry titled Oxlo points to OxCode, whose current documentation describes an AI software engineer inside VS Code-compatible editors. This description follows that current product evidence rather than assuming the older catalog name establishes a separate application.
Check access and the available mode
The documentation lists VS Code, Cursor, VSCodium, and other compatible editors. Sign-in uses an invited Google account because the service is in invite-only alpha. Installing the extension does not itself grant access.
Dev mode is live; Vibe and Teach are described as coming soon. Dev supports planning work, reading and editing files, running approved commands, and verifying results. Franklin has not tested those workflows or reproduced any effectiveness claim. Distinguish the present mode from proposed future behavior when choosing the tool.
Inspect the plan and completed checks
OxCode presents larger work through a visible lifecycle, with plan cards, scoped task cards, and verification status. Its documentation names diagnostics, tests, builds, and command checks as verification methods. Inspect actual command results rather than treating a generated test plan as evidence that tests ran.
Command controls range from asking before changes to broader access in a trusted workspace. The publisher says risky commands still require confirmation. Review the requested command and its scope before authorizing it, particularly when it can change files or external systems.
Separate local memory from hosted processing
The product stores project and global memory as local Markdown notes that users can read and edit. It also describes importing context from sessions in other coding tools. Review imported material before carrying it into a new task.
OxCode uses a hosted gateway, and its documentation says prompts, selected code, diagnostics, attached terminal output, files read by tools, and tool results may be sent through it. Local memory therefore does not mean all task processing stays on the computer. Check current privacy terms and workplace policy before using confidential repositories or terminal output. The provider's redaction and telemetry statements are claims Franklin has not audited.
