Built from scratch in Rust. website docs discord X/twitter HelixDB is a database that makes it easy to build all the components needed for AI applications in a single platform. You don't need a separate application DB, relational DB, vector DB, graph DB, or application layers to manage the multiple storage locations. HelixDB gives your agents federated access to company data, for memory, company brains, and applications. Helix primarily operates with a graph + vector data model, but it also supports KV, documents, and relational data. Getting Started 1. Install the CLI The Helix CLI runs and manages local instances and talks to Helix Cloud. Already installed? Update to the latest version with helix update . 2. The quickest path — helix chef helix chef is an interactive, one-shot bootstrapper. It installs the HelixDB query skills and docs MCP, scaffolds a project, starts a local instance, seeds some example data, and writes a HELIX CHEF PROMPT.md . If a coding agent is available (Claude Code, Codex, or OpenCode), it can hand off and build a working app — frontend and all — from a one-line description of what you want. That's it — no flags. Answer \"what do you want to build?\" and follow the prompts. 3. Manual local setup If you'd rather wire things up yourself: 1. Initialize a project. This scaffolds helix.toml , a .helix/ workspace dir, and a ready-to-run examples/request.json . 2. Start a local instance.
