GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The release adds to a growing category of terminal-based clients built for developers who prefer keyboard-driven, distraction-free interfaces over web browsers. Its use of OpenTUI for cross-platform support suggests the developer aims for wider adoption beyond macOS, though Linux and Windows compatibility remains untested by the author.
