Kilo just broke through the 1 trillion tokens a month barrier on OpenRouter for the first time. Each of the open source family of AI coding tools (Cline, Roo, Kilo) is growing rapidly this month. Part of this growth is caused by Cursor and Claude starting to throttle their users. We wrote about Cursor at the beginning of July and about Claude in the second half of July.

First we built a user interface (UI) when the application was just going to be operated by humans. There’s a whole branch of study around good and bad patterns in that design practice, focusing on how we make things easily operable by humans. Then we added an application programmable interface (API) when we wanted the application to be operated by other applications - integrated programs.
