Could you build this?

Partial Terminal UIs and simple tool-calling scripts are easy to vibe code, but an industrial-grade agent CLI incorporating AST-aware structural search, Semgrep scans, robust diff previews, and resilient context compaction needs specialized systems tooling.

What it would actually take: A robust CLI coding agent uses a compiled or fast runtime (Rust/Go/Python) embedding Tree-sitter parsers for structural code analysis, an MCP/custom tool execution framework, a git-backed transaction engine for deterministic undo/redo, and specialized prompt engineering tailored to local/remote LLM contexts. Maintaining language-agnostic AST parsing and high-performance terminal UX requires deep developer tooling expertise.
