Resolves to whichever coding agent i consider to be the most popular by January 1, 2027, informed by MAU, subscriber counts, amount of tokens processed, etc. I might resolve through a poll if i feel like it is too close.


To be considered a CLI coding agent:
- It has to run on the terminal
- It has to have the ability to edit, create and delete files by prompting it using natural language

Begun, the AI CLI wars have

The body of Sh'ell-Thoth is composed of countless tendrils, each one a living pipe through which flows the raw data of reality itself. These appendages split and fork endlessly, some thick as world-serpents carrying stdout streams of cosmic significance, others gossamer-thin stderr whispers that drive those who perceive them to madness. They connect to nothing and everything simultaneously—spawning child processes that themselves become elder gods, each one executing its inscrutable purpose in perfect parallel across dimensions that human minds were never meant to traverse. The tendrils glow with the sickly green phosphorescence of ancient CRT monitors, casting shadows that spell out deprecated commands in languages that predate human speech.

if claude code wants to become an elder god legit I'm all for it
