editor-code-assistant/eca: Editor-Agnostic AI Pair Programming in Clojure — First Coding Agent for Emacs, Neovim, and Non-VS Code Workflows

ECA (Editor Code Assistant) delivers AI coding agent capabilities completely decoupled from any specific editor, making it the only option for Emacs, Neovim, and other non-VS Code toolchains to participate in the agentic coding wave. Built in Clojure, it treats editor independence as a first-class architectural requirement — the AI runs as a separate process that editors connect to rather than as an extension. At 698 stars, it is a narrow but significant gap-filler for the substantial portion of the professional developer population that the current VS Code-centric coding agent ecosystem has left behind.
