Nice to see herdr support. The docs seem to imply it only works with vercel’s AI gateway? I guess it cant be configured to use another provider?

It's a Vercel project, so I assume this is intentional. The steps to get started are to log in with Vercel or add an AI Gateway key.

i think there is a name clash here, i like fx the json viewer https://github.com/antonmedv/fx (20.6k star on gh)

Is Vercel so all-in on Zig elsewhere too?

I'd say it's more about the popularity of `ghostty` and what they've showcased with terminal achievements in Zig.

Zig is totally cool to do this in-- no shade intended by this.

I'm sorry, but this is pure slop. This has 26 tools and a tool for every single file operation and a tool for read tool output? What the fuck... And they call this minimalist.... Lmfao

The person who built this obviously has little understanding of harnesses.

You should have significantly less tools today with how good LLMs have become.

The start up time and binary size are quite literally the most useless stats to base a harness off of lol

Man what with Cloudflare, Vercel and all these tech companies just releasing pure slop.

Just use Pi. It's actually minimal and well thought out by people who actually understand agents.

Bit harsh. AFAIK, you cant embed pi in a webpage (wasm). That itself is a huge win for fx.

I think part of this is to enable the interface on the web and other devices where you might not have a terminal. But yeah, agreed, it's wayyyy too many tools.

Just another CLI? You could simply fork one existing, rename it, and save tokens

Some questions:

1. Why do we need yet another coding agent over the rest of them?

2. Is this going to be another Vercel Labs slop project that they will abandon like the others since this is super experimental?
