    From the README

    Claurst is an open-source, multi-provider terminal coding agent built from the ground up in Rust. It started as a clean-room reimplementation of Claude Code's behavior (from spec) and has since evolved into an amazing TUI pair programmer with multi-provider support, a rich UI, plugin system, a companion named Rustle, chat forking, memory consolidation, and much more.

    It's fast, it's memory-efficient, it's yours to run however you want, and there's no tracking or telemetry.

    This drops claurst into ~/.claurst/bin (or %USERPROFILE%\.claurst\bin on Windows) and adds it to your PATH automatically. Open a new terminal and run claurst.
