OpenAI's coding agent that runs locally, written in Rust: reads and writes code and runs commands inside an OS-level sandbox. Sign in with a ChatGPT plan or use an API key.

Rust CLI proxy that filters and compresses command output before it reaches the agent's context, covering git, tests, grep, ls and 100+ other commands and cutting bash output by up to about 90%. Hooks automatically rewrite commands run by Claude Code, Codex and others.

Fast regex search across directories (command rg) that respects .gitignore, skips hidden and binary files by default and filters by file type. A go-to command for coding agents searching a codebase.

Packs a web page, local HTML or dist folder into a lightweight desktop app with one command (built on Rust Tauri; macOS, Windows, Linux), with --json output and llms.txt for agents. Needs Node.js; installs Rust automatically if missing.

A cat replacement with syntax highlighting, line numbers and Git change markers, plus --line-range to print specific lines. Falls back to plain text in pipes and other non-interactive use, and pairs with git diff or tail -f for code and logs.

Modern markup-based typesetting system, a LaTeX alternative for papers, reports and resumes. Fast incremental compilation; typst compile outputs a PDF in one command and watch mode recompiles automatically.

General-purpose AI agent that runs on your machine, with a desktop app, CLI and API. Written in Rust, works with 15+ model providers and connects to 70+ extensions via MCP. Originally from Block, now part of the Linux Foundation's AAIF.

Simple, fast alternative to find with intuitive syntax and regex and glob matching, skipping hidden and .gitignored paths by default. Can run commands on results in parallel; handy for agents locating files quickly.

Terminal multiplexer built for coding agents: run Claude Code, Codex and others in split panes, each marked working, blocked or idle, with sessions surviving disconnects. Agents can also create panes and message each other through the CLI.

Browser automation CLI built for AI agents in native Rust: open pages, click and fill forms by refs from accessibility tree snapshots, read text and take screenshots, with compact snapshots and output limits to save context. From Vercel Labs; reuses local Chrome or installs one.

Cross-platform shell built around structured data: pipelines pass tables instead of plain text, and you can open and query JSON, CSV, TOML and more directly. Default builds include nu --mcp, which serves it to agents as an MCP server.

A smarter cd that remembers your directories, ranking them by frequency and recency so you can jump with a fragment of the name. Add zoxide init to your shell config after installing.

Connects Claude Code to rust-analyzer so the agent can go to definitions, find references and analyze symbols and call relationships in Rust code. Install rust-analyzer via rustup or a package manager first. Official Anthropic plugin.

Detects your CPU, memory and GPU and scores open models on whether they run, speed, quality and context, then works with local runtimes like Ollama, llama.cpp and MLX to download and benchmark them. recommend --json gives agent-friendly output.

Command runner that saves and runs project commands in a justfile, with make-inspired but simpler syntax. Agents can use just --list to discover a project's build, test and deploy commands and run them directly.

Terminal multiplexer written in Rust, an alternative to tmux, with layout files, floating and stacked panes, WebAssembly plugins and a built-in web client. Handy for running several agent sessions at once.

Community-maintained modern replacement for ls (successor to exa) with colored output, tree view, Git status and file icons, plus .gitignore filtering for quickly scanning directory structures.

Compiles Markdown chapters into an online book with a table of contents, full-text search and themes, good for manuals, lecture notes and course material; agents can edit chapter files and rebuild to preview. Maintained by the Rust team; install a prebuilt binary or via cargo.

Automattic's offline English grammar checker: checks spelling, grammar and word choice locally in milliseconds without sending your text anywhere. Homebrew installs harper-cli for batch-checking files (still experimental) and harper-ls for editors. English only.

AST-based structural code search, lint and bulk rewrite tool: matches code patterns rather than text, with $VAR wildcards for nodes, making it well suited to agents doing large cross-file refactors.

Bundles a whole web page with its CSS, images, fonts and scripts into a single HTML file that opens offline exactly as it looked, good for archiving pages or handing them to an agent for offline analysis. It does not run JavaScript, so pre-render dynamic pages with a headless browser.

A du replacement written in Rust that shows disk usage as a directory tree with proportion bars, making large files and folders easy to spot. Filter by depth, count or regex, and output JSON with -j for agents to parse.

Git worktree manager (wt) built for running multiple AI agents in parallel: create, switch and clean up worktrees by branch name, and spin up a worktree and launch Claude in one command. Supports hooks, LLM-generated commit messages and one-step merges.

HTTP client CLI that reimplements HTTPie's syntax in Rust with a focus on performance; key-value pairs on the command line are sent as JSON by default, making it quick to debug REST APIs.
