    I really don't care to click anything in a terminal, and I don't understand why its being added more and more.

    When Claude added it, I immediately hated it since you click into the terminal and accidentally click something.

      100%

      I don't mind something that requires a modifier key like Shift+click to follow a URL

      But so many times now I'll click to get focus and now that's selected some option or opened some pane.

      If I wanted that, I'd use the Claude Desktop app!

      Hopefully they add an option to atleast disable it

      Or can we do it with a cli wrapper process?

    My Pavlov reaction when I see the Claude icon next to the committer is: not touching this. Is trust in OSS now completely gone?

      The code generated by Claude is fully under my control, and I make sure it works exactly as I intend. I could have hidden this by committing it myself, but I choose to acknowledge that I had Claude's help

        It’s not your fault. The problem is now that my mother in law can vibe code a complete operating system, I cannot distinguish quality from shit any more. And the last few OSS projects that I tried that had the Claude icon where shit and breaking in many ways.

          It's kinda like eternal September but for software engineering. There was a time that just being on the internet, having an email address, etc. was a signal that indicated a level of technical proficiency. Now everyone has that connectivity, it doesn't mean anything anymore.

          Same concept, but github repos now.

        This is also why I allow it to add these things to the commit. I think it's worth disclosing despite me checking everything it did myself.

    A clickable TUI is contrarian to why I use most CLI tools. Neat that they could build this, though, because it suits their needs.

    I'm fine with K9s and lazygit key-driven interfaces.

    I guess one thing that's good about a clickable TUI is that maybe it's easier to approach for some, wihtout releasing yet another memory hog Electron App?

    It would have been better if that opened a browser tab, one binary, much more flexibility and more elegant

    I hope vibecoding doesn't mean the concept of contributing upstream gets lost. At least some of this (mouse clicking) would have been a great upstream contribution instead of rewrite.

    What is the difference from k9s from this vibecoded clone?

    > Nothing is hidden behind memorised keys

    Why is this a good thing? Have a help you your access via ? and document what the keys are. Don't dumb the interface down.

    I wish we had a "cool" GUI toolkit. GUIs are way better at this stuff. Adding point and click is so close to being a GUI, the only possible reason this is a TUI is fashion.

      How are GUIs "way better at this stuff"? I can't see it, but would like to understand how you feel that a GUI can improve on the management of automated processes at scale.

      I've been using https://github.com/longbridge/gpui-component

      Imgui is also good for this

      Idk if you are managing k8s stuff you are probably in a terminal already. Staying in a terminal is nice. Plus having persistent multiplexer sessions is a big deal in locked down corporate environments.

      I appreciate the tui.

        Seems like a task for the window manager and a remote access protocol.

      I think X11 is the GUI version of terminal interface

      we need more experiments with X11 interfaces

      How would a "cool" GUI Toolkit look like for you?

    You missed the chance to use kittens (k10s) as your TUI's icon.
