Ask HN: CLI AI Agents with Comparism?

[tobwen]

There are many CLI AI agent tools out there these days: aider, droid, codex, copilot, crush, opencode, etc. Some are "locked" to major providers and subscription-only, some play nice with BYOK or multi-provider proxies like OpenRouter, and others can be "made" to support multiple backends (EULA violations, etc.).

Is there an "awesome CLI AI agents" repo or site curating them? And maybe some solid reviews or head-to-head comparisons floating around?

I've tested most of them on my own and there are significant differences. I'd love to dump my findings into a post, but I'm not sure if it'd hold a candle to those big, polished code benchmarks out there.
