Exactly. If you take a look, most of these repos have Claude as a contributor, so I suppose it's Claude that recommends using TUIs and not the developers themselves.
In the same period of 2024, there were ~700 repos on github.
Maybe you're right, but my hunch is AI has increased the number of all types of projects, and would have to see some evidence that AI was disproportionately building TUIs. The trend of new TUIs was well known before coding agents were a thing, and my evidence is the half dozen or so tools I use every single day that came out less than ten years ago but before coding agents.
