Resume interrupted CLI agent sessions
Session persistence tool for terminal-based AI coding agents that saves full agent context and lets you resume seamlessly after interruptions — network drops, timeouts, or intentional breaks. Works with popular AI CLI agents and maintains conversation history, file states, and task progress across sessions. Particularly valuable for long-running agentic tasks that span hours or multiple work sessions.
cli-continues solves one of the most frustrating problems with terminal-based AI agents: losing progress when sessions are interrupted. Whether due to network disconnections, timeouts, or intentional breaks, it saves the full agent context and lets you resume seamlessly.
The tool works with popular AI CLI agents and maintains conversation history, file states, and task progress across sessions. It is particularly valuable for long-running agentic tasks that span hours or multiple work sessions.
Free and 100% open source under the MIT license. cli-continues is a local zero-cost CLI utility that operates offline on local session transcripts with no subscriptions, hosted servers, or licensing fees.

Anthropic's agentic coding CLI
Anthropic's agentic CLI coding tool that delegates complex tasks to Claude directly from the terminal. Understands entire codebases via automatic context gathering, edits multiple files, runs shell commands, and manages Git workflows autonomously. Supports CLAUDE.md for persistent project instructions, integrates with VS Code and JetBrains, and uses Claude Opus/Sonnet with extended thinking for complex architectural decisions. Built for terminal-first developers.
Blazingly fast recursive search
Ultra-fast recursive text search tool written in Rust that respects .gitignore rules automatically. Searches directories significantly faster than grep with smart defaults like line numbers, syntax highlighting, and compressed file support. The de facto replacement for grep among developers, combining the speed of Rust with sensible defaults that eliminate the need for complex command-line flags.
Turn GitHub repositories into interactive architecture maps
Visual architecture generator that transforms any GitHub repository into an interactive system design map within seconds. Analyzes repository structures and README documentation to produce validated component flowcharts, dependency graphs, and Mermaid diagrams. Supports direct URL routing by replacing hub with diagram, provides instant export to SVG and PNG formats, and handles private repositories through user-supplied personal access tokens.
Multi-agent orchestration plugin for Claude Code
Oh My ClaudeCode (OMC) is a plugin for Claude Code that adds multi-agent orchestration with 19 specialized agents, smart model routing between Haiku and Opus, and execution modes such as Autopilot, Team, Ralph, Ultrawork, and Deep Interview. It provides lifecycle hooks, a real-time HUD statusline, and source-backed Claude Code workflows that turn one session into a coordinated AI development team.
Open-source AI agent framework with persistent memory, reusable skills, tools, and messaging gateways
Hermes Agent is an open-source AI agent framework with persistent memory, reusable skills, 40+ tools, cron jobs, and messaging gateways.
Pack your entire codebase into a single AI-friendly file
Repomix packages entire repositories into single AI-optimized files for feeding to LLMs like Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini. It outputs XML, Markdown, JSON, or plain text with token counting, security scanning via Secretlint, and Tree-sitter-based code compression. Works as CLI, MCP server, or Chrome extension for GitHub. Supports Claude Agent Skills generation. 26K+ GitHub stars, MIT licensed, with a web interface at repomix.com for zero-install usage.
