A small local-first terminal AI harness in Go that connects any model API, MCP servers, and Agent Skills through a CLI.
Why you might care
Aimed at terminal users who want model-agnostic agent setup without Node, Python, or Docker. It ships as one static binary with plain JSON config, JSONL sessions, and API keys read from environment variables. Its README reports a 7.29 MiB stripped binary, though that is a single local measurement.
