Every few weeks Pi hits #1 here and I quietly grumble "mine does that too, but with lovely graphics.", so I'm saying it out loud: <a href="https://github.com/juggler-ai/juggler" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/juggler-ai/juggler
Like Pi, it's plugins all the way down, provider-agnostic, minimal system prompts, threaded sub-agents, code-mode, multi-client remote sessions, worktrees, a context window you can actually see and edit, etc etc
Where Pi is way ahead is the plugin ecosystem, and that takes people, which is hard to get amid the current deluge of agent action. So if there's any spare oxygen trailing off this thread, I'd love any Pi-heads who fancy a bit of GUI action to come and kick the tyres..
My personal quiet grumbling is that everyone got on the TUI bandwagon without any rational reason. I find it borderline psychotic. Or maybe humans are much more like sheep than we care to admit: we just follow the flock into the (UI) ravine. So your GUI is a nice escape.
i love vim and i love vim-tmux-navigator keybinds letting me navigate quickly between panes in my terminal: ctrl-{h,j,k,l} to switch panes. i love that tui agents fit right in among my shells and vims. i love that my setup works just as well on my machine and on any remote machine over ssh or mosh. i’ve been working like this since 2012. although i did start using vscode for $DAYJOB since our devex team supports it (has good vim keybinds at least)
Our architecture team started with vscode and windows because it’s “how it’s been done” but within a year they all migrated to ghostty or another terminal on Mac because it’s so much faster and efficient.
