Description
Bullet is a coding agent built for speed. We got tired of burning hours waiting on agent runs. The models were fine, but the loops around them were slow. Bullet auto-picks the right model/reasoning level per prompt, parallelizes searches/reads/commands, and uses targeted code search instead of embedding your whole repo. Works with your Claude Code or Codex subscription, API keys, or an on-device model. 95.8% on SWE-bench Verified (top 3), 119s/task. Built by Yale CS grads, ex-AppLovin/Citadel.

Could you build this?
Partial A fast terminal coding agent CLI wrapping LLM APIs with ripgrep and parallel tool calls is vibe-codeable, but achieving top-tier SWE-bench performance and reliable code generation loops requires rigorous evaluation harnesses and agent architecture engineering.
What it would actually take: The stack would typically use Node.js or Rust for a lightweight CLI, integrating ripgrep or tree-sitter for AST-based code search, parallel asynchronous tool runners, and model routing logic. The core difficulty lies in prompt engineering, context window pruning, error recovery strategies, and building an automated evaluation harness to validate high-accuracy agentic problem-solving.
