- [warpdotdev/warp](https://seerepo.com/r/warpdotdev/warp): Warp is an agentic development environment, born out of the terminal.
- [zellij-org/zellij](https://seerepo.com/r/zellij-org/zellij): A terminal workspace with batteries included

- Size: Lines written by people and agents, without generated ones; code files, without tests.
- Who writes it: A commit counts as AI's when it carries its signature: a Co-Authored-By line, its author name or the merge of its branch.
- Activity: From GitHub and its history, on the day SeeRepo read it.
- Tests: The files that test the code, and the share of code files a test imports.
