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.

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.

That's what the web is for: https://ui.shadcn.com/

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.

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

I think X11 is the GUI version of terminal interface

we need more experiments with X11 interfaces

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

Imgui is also good for this

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.

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

pierreneter 42 minutes ago | parent

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.

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?

> 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.

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

taude 26 minutes ago | parent

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?

What is the difference from k9s from this vibecoded clone?

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