About

Crush is a glamorous AI coding agent that lives right in your terminal, seamlessly connecting your tools, code, and workflows with any Large Language Model (LLM) of your choice. It offers multi-model flexibility, letting you choose from a variety of LLMs or add your own using OpenAI or Anthropic-compatible APIs, and supports mid-session switching between them while preserving context. Crush is session-based, enabling multiple project-specific contexts to coexist. Powered by Language Server Protocol (LSP) enhancements, it incorporates coding-aware context just like a developer’s editor. It's highly extensible via Model Context Protocol (MCP) plugins using HTTP, stdio, or SSE for added capabilities. Crush runs anywhere, leveraging Charm’s sleek Bubble Tea-based TUI for a polished terminal user experience. Written in Go and MIT-licensed (with FSL-1.1 for trademarks), enabling developers to stay in their terminal while taking advantage of expressive AI coding assistance.

About

OpenCode is the AI coding agent purpose-built for the terminal. It delivers a responsive, themeable terminal UI that feels native while streamlining your workflow. With LSP auto-loading, it ensures the right language servers are always available for accurate, context-aware coding support. Developers can spin up multiple AI agents in parallel sessions on the same project, maximizing productivity. Shareable links make it easy to reference, debug, or collaborate across sessions. Supporting Claude Pro and 75+ LLM providers via Models.dev, OpenCode gives you full freedom to choose your coding companion.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Crush is really appealing from a developer’s point of view because it brings agentic coding into the terminal without making the workflow feel bloated. It feels like a tool for people who already live in the command line and want an AI agent that can work with their existing code, tools, and habits. I like that it is open source and model-flexible. Being able to wire your own LLM into the workflow is a big deal because different coding tasks need different tradeoffs around cost, speed, context, and reasoning quality. The terminal UI is also a nice fit for real development work. Crush is not trying to replace the whole IDE; it gives you an agentic layer where you can ask for help, work through code, run commands, and stay close to the environment you already use. The active GitHub repo is a good sign too. Frequent commits, lots of stars, and ongoing work around providers, MCP, hooks, and shell features make it feel like a project with real momentum instead of a one-off AI demo.

Cons

  • Crush is probably not the best fit for someone who wants a polished, hand-holdy coding assistant with everything abstracted away. It feels more geared toward developers who are comfortable in the terminal and want control over models, config, permissions, and workflows. I would also be careful with any AI coding agent that can interact with your shell and project files. Recent research on coding-agent setup workflows shows that agents can be vulnerable to malicious or misleading project instructions, dependency names, registry redirects, and unsafe install steps, so developers still need review habits and guardrails. For production repos, I would keep permissions tight, review commands, watch file diffs, and avoid letting any agent run destructive operations without explicit approval.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • OpenCode feels like a strong fit for developers who want an AI coding agent without getting locked into one model or one editor. I like that it works in the terminal, desktop, and IDE, so it can fit into different workflows instead of forcing one setup. The model flexibility is a big win. Being able to use 75+ providers, local models, GitHub Copilot, or ChatGPT Plus/Pro makes OpenCode feel more open and customizable than a lot of coding assistants. I also like the LSP support and multi-session workflow. For real coding work, it helps when the agent understands the project better and can run multiple threads of work in parallel.
  • Easy to install Easy to use Free models available with nearly no limits New models commonly get added for free

Cons

  • OpenCode is still something I would supervise closely. Any coding agent that can modify files, reason through projects, and run workflows needs clear review, tests, and good developer judgment.
  • CLI only
