# unstablebuild/rune

> A fast, GPU-rendered, keyboard-driven IDE for power users: code, terminals, CLI tools, language intelligence, debugging, and AI agents in one composable multi-workspace environment. The AI coding agent ships as an extension rather than part of the core editor.

- The repository is 39 days old and already has 1,265 stars.

## Star trust

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
