In a third list of three things, Claude mentioned that this program does not link an HTTP stack. Good to know, I guess, but how can we evaluate it against Zawinski's law without knowing whether it can read or send email?
So in 2026, it is more efficient to waste thousands of tokens on rolling your own slop version, rather than adding a feature to something that already exists.
Something like btop has been there for decades and will continue to do so where as this slop tool will be unmaintained or even deleted in a year.
They don’t accept vibecoded PRs and yes, it’s much easier to sit for a evening or two than to wait for maintainers to review PR in a month and wait another month or year for release.
I’m not happy, but that’s the reality.
Erm, the based employees at Anthropic don't read their code before merging, they just have Claude read it twice. Why would I waste my time reading code when I could be proompting?

You just know the prompt the author sent. And of course the absolute classic:
>No ps, no powermetrics, no scraping.
I assumed it was Claude taking credit for it since it wrote the whole post anyway.

htop was released 2024 and top was released 1992.
I agree that the bar is much lower now, but reinventing rather than adding is not a new thing!

Does it also not nuke your kernel? does it also not inject a keylogger? How will I know if it doesn't tell me! /s
