It's funny / ironic how the whole agentic development boom has taken off in terminal environments, but now the orchestration / IDE layer seems to be all Electron / GUI apps. Any suggestions for terminal UI versions of something like this?

There is hardly any terminal environments when doing SaaS, iPaaS.

Thankfully most of them can be proper Web with my already installed browser, or IDE based.

VSCode plugins get a discount, because I cannot avoid it in some cases.

I wonder what JetBrains is doing. They had such a strong lead, but with the rise of AI, they seem to be heading down the same path as Stack Overflow.

They are doing fine for us in Java, .NET and C++ land.
