tw93/Kaku: Rust-Based Terminal for AI Coding With 40% Smaller Binary and Instant Startup — 3,658 Stars
GitHub·medium signal
Kaku is a deeply customized WezTerm fork by tw93 (creator of Pake and MiaoYan), stripped of legacy modules for a 40% smaller binary with instant startup and GPU-accelerated rendering optimized for macOS. Includes built-in zsh plugins, shell integration for AI coding tools, and a unified settings UI for external AI agents. The name means 'quick to say' in Japanese. For anyone running Claude Code or Codex CLI daily, the terminal itself becoming AI-aware is the logical next step.
