ompWindsurfChoose Oh My Pi if you are power users who want IDE-grade tooling — LSP, debuggers, subagents — inside a terminal agent. Choose Windsurf if you are developers who want an affordable AI editor with agentic capabilities.
In our editorial scoring, Oh My Pi leads in 3 of six categories (output quality, autonomy and value), while Windsurf leads in 1 (ease of use). On price, Oh My Pi runs free (mit) — bring your own model and is open source; Windsurf runs free tier / $15-30/mo and is proprietary.
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.
Windsurf (formerly Codeium) is an AI-first code editor featuring Cascade — an agentic flow that can handle multi-file, multi-step coding tasks. It combines the familiarity of VS Code with powerful AI capabilities including code generation, refactoring, and terminal integration.
