Hmbown/CodeWhale, a Rust terminal coding agent created January 19, tagged v0.9.9, v0.9.10 and v0.9.11 between August 18 and 23, with 3,537 forks and 117 open issues. It's one of the largest open coding agents by star count and has never claimed 1.0. Read the version number literally rather than as modesty; the repo explicitly frames itself as mid-journey and takes outside PRs.
