Yes please. The GPUI ecosystem is too fragmented

Are you using Zed's crate or a private fork?
Re:Tell HN: Claude Code queries raw GitHub token on startup on Wednesday November 04, 2026 @12:16PM (#50368602)
Interesting. Easier than the gh cli?

I don't personally use gh myself, the only reason I installed it in the first place is because I noticed claude code attempts to find it any time it's interacting with GitHub.

To be clear I don't assume ill intent here, I'm just baffled as is to why

Tell HN: Claude Code queries raw GitHub token on startup

It's probably known but I was caught off guard yesterday when I noticed that Claude Code (CC) runs `gh auth token --hostname github.com` on every startup which typically returns raw token. e.g. $ gh auth token --hostname github.com gho_0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 I noticed this behaviour by chance when I configured gh to use 1Password for auth[1] and I kept getting prompted...

> Difftastic only diffs code, which is only 2/3 of all diffs.

Care to elaborate? What does Omnidiff offer for non-code files?

How does it compare to Difftastic[1]? Both built on top of TreeSitter and solve similar problems.

"In August, we introduced the billable usage dashboard and API which lets non-Enterprise customers see how much they’ve spent and download their consumption data to use offline directly or through third-party tools like Vantage. We also introduced budget alerts, which are on by default to prevent unpleasant billing surprises. We're prototyping hard spending caps now, with early availability in Q4 2026."

Yes! Yes! Hard caps please
