What it is
A terminal pair-programmer that works through git: every change it makes becomes a commit you can review, amend or revert.
Who it is for
People who want agent assistance without giving up control of the history.
Why we would pick it
The git integration remains the cleanest in the field. Nothing else makes an agent's work this easy to audit.
What to watch
Last commit was several months ago at the time of writing. Not abandoned, but no longer moving fast — check before adopting.
