Gemini CLI is Google's open-source AI agent for the terminal. Its standout traits are a 1M-token context window that can hold entire codebases and a free tier generous enough for real daily work with just a personal Google account. It supports MCP servers, Google Search grounding, and shell command execution in an agentic loop.
Oh My Pi (omp) is Can Bölük's fork of Pi, rewritten as a coding-first surface with a native Rust engine doing the heavy lifting. Where Pi stays deliberately minimal, omp packs an IDE-grade tool surface into the terminal: hash-anchored (hashline) edits that reject stale patches before they corrupt files, LSP-powered diagnostics and refactoring, real debugger control via DAP, persistent Python and JavaScript cells, browser automation, subagents, plan mode, and hindsight memory. It routes across 40+ providers by intent and accepts custom OpenAI-compatible endpoints via a models.yml.
