    Every few weeks Pi hits #1 here and I quietly grumble &quot;mine does that too, but with lovely graphics.&quot;, so I&#x27;m saying it out loud: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;juggler-ai&#x2F;juggler" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;juggler-ai&#x2F;juggler

    Like Pi, it&#x27;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&#x27;s any spare oxygen trailing off this thread, I&#x27;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.

        Odd you claim there’s no reason except “sheep”, did you ever stop to consider people just enjoyed the experience so stuck with it ?

          Woah there, I never said the &#x27;s&#x27; word!

          Pi is a great project, and people love it for good reason, I have nothing negative to say about it or its fans. I&#x27;m just trying to do something that appeals to the more GUI-oriented folks. And yes, I&#x27;d really love to know if there&#x27;s something that&#x27;s making people bounce off the product, because it may be trivial to fix!
