Big models code well, but running agents on them all day gets expensive. Small models are cheap, but they guess. Praxis closes the gap: it gives the model an exact map of your code and checks every answer before you see it. On SWE-bench Verified, Claude Haiku 5.5 with Praxis resolved 77 of 100 tasks, against 80 for Sonnet 5.5, at about one-eleventh the cost. Hand repetitive work to agents on your own keys, at the provider’s price. Your code stays on your PC.

Could you build this?
Partial A Windows AI chat UI wrapping model APIs is easy to vibe-code, but the claimed core advantage, an accurate code map plus answer verification that lets small models match large ones, needs real retrieval and evaluation research.
What it would actually take: The UI and model-API plumbing are straightforward desktop app work. The differentiator is a code-indexing pipeline (AST parsing, symbol graphs, embeddings) feeding context to the model, plus a verifier that checks patches or answers, such as running tests or a second-pass checker. Reproducing the reported benchmark numbers needs benchmark-driven iteration by people experienced in code-agent evaluation.
