All five projects combine allow/ask/deny decisions, compound-command inspection, and fail-closed behavior. rivumi now has a deny-first classifier, critical floor, shell segmentation, timeout-deny, configured allow/deny rules, and visible policy reasons. Broader syntax coverage and live interactive validation remain open.
In August 2026, it's not just five frameworks moving. Beyond OMP 2, Pi v2, Opencode 2, dsh, and Claude Code, three model makers — Google (Antigravity CLI), Meta (Muse Code), and xAI (Grok Build) — are building coding agents directly. Add Amp, Cline 2.0, and the Codex CLI Rust rewrite, and eight-plus frameworks are undergoing architecture-level changes simultaneously. Factor in 110+ total CLI tools, and H2 2026 is a divergence period for harness methodology. This article analyzes four architectural approaches, one shared direction, and one emerging trust crisis.
OMP 2 is no longer a Pi fork. The entire codebase has been rewritten from scratch in Rust, with ~41 crates covering a custom bash engine, GPU-accelerated GUI, embedded CPython 3.14t, gRPC transport, and Kokoro-82M TTS. Currently in pre-release with no stable version yet.
omp is a fork of Pi, but it is not just a plugin layer stacked on top: it adds roughly 80,000 lines of Rust, pulling grep, shell, AST, and PTY in-process. Built-in tools go from Pi's 7 to 31, plus 14 LSP ops, 28 DAP ops, and 60+ providers. One codebase, two opposite bets.
