good callout, I've seen Will McGugan's work on textual and rich before and that really pushed forward the Python+terminal ecosystem in the past five years. I've seen a lot of CLI tools coalesce on the rust and go ecosystems, for various reasons (uv, fzf, helix, just, etc). But I didn't know toad had gone open source now, very excited to check it out!

my ulterior motive: I use some of Nori skills, and also toad, ampcode, codex, kilocode, and... I want to reduce my tool noise. ;-)

our vision with Nori CLI is to smooth the headache of hooking in skills and other customizations into any agent that's running under the hood, which I think is exactly in line with that. I see that Toad is also built on top of the ACP approach, so there's definitely an overlap or possible integration
