Ugh, I really wish this had been written in Go or Rust. Just something that produces a single binary executable and doesn't require you to install a runtime like Node.

Ask Gemini CLI to re-write itself in your preferred language

Contest between Claude Code and Gemini CLI, who rewrites it faster/cheaper/better?

Not sure why this was flagged, because I think the point is that one-shot works terribly, which it does

I have already been asking the Gemini CLI questions about itself.
