If one of these tools has broad model support (like aider) it would be a game changer.

Agree. My wish-list is:

1. Non JS based. I've noticed a ton of random bugs/oddities in Claude Code, and now Codex with UI flickering, scaling, user input issues, etc, all from what I believe of trying to do React stuff and writing half-baked LLM produced JS in a CLI application. Using a more appropriate language that is better for CLIs I think would help a lot here (Go or Rust for eg).

2. Customized model selection (eg. OpenRouter, etc).

3. Full MCP support.

We’ve been working to open source ours. Should work with any open router model that supports tool calling.

Ours is agentic mode first.

Guess this is me dropping it live there may be rough edges as we’ve been prepping it for a little bit

  • Oh cool. How do you feel it compares to Claude Code? (Serious question, but I realize I’m asking a biased source. :) )
