About crush
crush is a agentic coding CLI from Charmbracelet for working with AI coding workflows in the terminal for builders who need practical AI systems rather than vague demos. It is useful when a team wants something they can inspect, run, and adapt from source. The project documentation and repository history show an active engineering focus, with public code, issue tracking, and clear examples that make it easier to evaluate before adoption. The workflow starts with the core problem the project solves. It brings agentic coding assistance into a terminal-first developer workflow. Instead of forcing teams to build that layer from scratch, crush packages the important parts into a reusable project. That matters for AI builders because research prototypes often fail at the handoff from experiment to repeatable workflow. A public implementation gives teams a reference point for architecture, pro
