Story

Goose moved to the Linux Foundation, OpenCode relocated to the anomalyco org and now cites 160K+ stars, 900+ contributors, and 7.5M monthly developers (Morph). On capability, Codex CLI with GPT-5.5 still leads Terminal-Bench at 83.4%, while Google retired the consumer Gemini CLI (access ended June 18) and folded it into the Antigravity platform. The open-source tier is stabilizing around a few governed harnesses rather than fragmenting further, which is good news if you've been afraid to bet on a CLI agent that might get abandoned.
