CLUSTER COMMAND-INTERACTING-INTERFACE · 15 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2023-12-05

Terminal AI assistants

This cluster consists of 29 command-line and terminal tools that integrate AI models, agents, and chat directly into the developer's terminal environment, often supporting local models and multiple providers. Dated entries show a single 2016 outlier followed by a slow trickle from late 2023 through 2025, with a slightly higher count in early 2026. NeoWorker leads traction with 14 stars, ahead of Nekyia (4) and rust-llm (0).

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 15 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
