Their new CLI agent tool [1] is written in Python unlike similar agents from Anthropic/Google (Typescript/Bun) and OpenAI (Rust). It also appears to have first class ACP support, where ACP is the new protocol from Zed [2].

They're different use cases, ACP is for clients (UIs, interfaces)

This is exactly the CLI I'm referring to, whose name implies it's for playing around with "vibe-coding", instead of helping professional developers produce high quality code. It's the opposite of what I and many others are looking for.

I think that's just the name they picked. I don't mind it. Taking a glance at what it actually does, it just looks like another command line coding assistant/agent similar to Opencode and friends. You can use it for whatever you want not just "vibe coding", including high quality, serious, professional development. You just have to know what you're doing.
