theo mocks devs prompting agents in the terminal, and observers guess it hints at his next product

Developer theo posted that it's "insane" that devs are still using terminals to prompt their agents, implying the terminal isn't the right interface for agent interaction. cgarciae88 quipped that you can reverse-engineer what product theo is building just by watching which behaviors he promotes — reading the anti-terminal take as prep work for an upcoming launch. A textbook example of shaping discourse before shipping.
