Is the axe drawing actually a hammer?
Looks like an axe to me. The cutting edge of the axe is embedded into the surface. And the handle attaches near the back of the head like an axe. Most hammers I've seen the handle attaches in the middle.

This is the OP promoting their project — makes sense to me

#13looks interesting, I agree that chat is not always the right interface for agents, and a LLM boosted cli sometimes feels like the right paradigm (especially for dev related tasks).
how would you say this compares to similar tools like google’s dotprompt? https://google.github.io/dotprompt/getting-started/

There are many different styles of axe and some don't flair out much.

#1712MB for an "AI framework replacement"? That's either brilliant compression or someone's redefining "framework" to mean "toy model that works on my laptop." Show me the benchmarks on actual workloads, not the readme poetry.

#19It's exciting to see so much experimentation when it comes to form factors for agent orchestration! The first question that comes to mind is: how do you think about cost control? Putting a ton in a giant context window is expensive, but unintentionally fanning out 10 agents with a slightly smaller context window is even more expensive. The answer might be "well, don't do that," and that certainly maps to the UNIX ana…

Great question and it's something that I've not dig into yet. But I see no problem adding a way to limit LLMs by tokens or something similar to keep the cost for the user within reason.

This is not an LLM but a Binary to run LLMs as single purpose agents that can chain together.
