sorry, yeah the word IDE is a misnomer - we will fix, looking for something better. It's really a canvas that your agent can use to help you understand an implementation, what tradeoffs were made, etc. Whiteboard is meant to be used in conjunction with tools like Cursor / an ADE.
Edit: just updated the GitHub + marketing site to reflect this!

YAT (Yet Another Tool) is something I use (sometimes pejoratively, sometimes as a reality), arising from the general trend and burnout in the developer tools space
One of the nice things about Ai is that it can deal with all that and I don't have to go through YAT docs and code to figure out how to use it
