DeerFlow is ByteDance's open-source Super Agent Harness built on Python 3.12 + LangGraph. It orchestrates long-running tasks through sandboxes, long-term memory, sub-agents, skills, and a messaging gateway. It hit #1 on GitHub Trending in February 2026, now surpassing 63,000 stars, with support for Telegram/Slack/Feishu, Claude Code integration, and multiple search backends.
Codex CLI is OpenAI's open source terminal coding agent (Rust, Apache-2.0, ~106.6k stars) with MCP, subagents, image input, code review, and Skills. The model line is now GPT-5.6 Sol / Terra / Luna, and the desktop app, CLI, and IDE extension share one config.toml.
Gemini CLI is Google's open source terminal AI agent (Apache 2.0, ~106.6k stars). It once offered 60 requests per minute and 1,000 per day for free, with a 1M context window. The individual tier stopped serving on 2026/6/18 and Antigravity CLI took over.

Pi is a minimalist coding agent by Mario Zechner (TypeScript, MIT, ~93K stars) with just 4 core tools and a very short system prompt — everything else you add yourself via Extensions, Skills, and Prompt Templates. It deliberately omits MCP, sub-agents, plan mode, and permission popups. The repo is now earendil-works/pi and the npm scope is @earendil-works.
