Claude Code CLI - Professional Edition: DevPlace Code 😎

I thought that it would be a project that will never be used (not even by me) - and I was terribly wrong. I created a Claude Code clone with as main target: making the TUI perfect. I’ve spent a lot of time to implement a HTML/JS/CSS/DOM event/style system that renders perfectly. Everything you see in the terminal are isolated components that will bubble up events until it finds a receiver. So key events will only be handled by the right component, same for mouse. It has partial history scrolling. A lot of rich widgets and effects implemented.

Effects:

• Streaming animated diffsets with changes
• Delete stream, write stream, read stream
• Rendering live of all stdout of subprocesses
• Also displayed concurrent in a swarm - so you can see output of many processes / agents at the same time

This is a terrible thing in Claude. First of all, you have Ctrl+O but it’s basically impossible to see whole process output, especially live.

Switching agents is ten times more comfortable than Claude’s shit.

The screen refreshes only the parts that should be refreshed, making everything selectable but still scrollable (what a challenge to get those things in combo working). The application is thus super light on your system. We can’t say that about Claude with its memory leaks.

A very nice separation of concerns is applied. A clear split between GUI and business logic, etcetera. Yeah, I know - common sense. But if you didn’t hear, Claude had a huge print line function that basically contained the whole business rule / core of the application. It’s really impressive how the creators themselves are not able to work with their stuff. Check Claude Code Review online.

I did not want to implement this project to DevPlace itself - it would make DevPlace too big / too messy / chance that nobody in exception of me will use it is high (while the agent itself is better than Claude).

Still, it uses the whole DevPlace ecosystem / API. DevPlace already supported everything to provide for such agent and has limited AI for members (so I won’t go bankrupt). By logging into the site (separate site, working on with DPC itself), you can download a binary with your API key compiled in it. It is a zero config application.

All native Claude agents, workflows, slash commands, skills are supported and used if available in your source files.

The list with benefits is endless, but I am a bit too busy to write it all down. I better continue on the website where you can download it. Linux / Apple / maybe Windows.

It is written in NIM and is a single binary.

Users have a euro per day and to determine how much that is: I created its whole site that does authentication on DevPlace and a lot of other calls to DevPlace with it, including the build command for the CLI itself for specific users. That euro per day is actually the already existing limit for members on all AI actions that DevPlace offers underground. It takes a long time to waste an euro.

But again, it uses DevPlace as backend for everything, but it will have its own site and is a separate project that safely can die some day. Sad, because it’s a Mercedes - so smooth. I vibed the whole night with it and kept improving it. It’s starting to lose toy status.
