Every option in the catalog for when you need to let an agent run commands and edit files from your shell — 13 terminal and CLI coding agents, 12 of them free or freemium, with the pricing tier printed on every row.
Flocci AI Tools lists 13 of them, ordered free tiers first: Aider, Cline, Crush, Gemini CLI and Goose. 12 of the 13 are free or have a free tier. Each entry states what it uniquely does rather than a score.
7 on this page are marked fully free with no paid plan at all: Aider, Cline, Crush, Gemini CLI and Goose. The remaining 6 are freemium, trial or paid, and each is labelled with its exact tier so nothing surprises you at sign-up.
Free tools first, then freemium, then trial, then paid, and alphabetically inside each tier. Nobody pays to appear higher: Flocci AI Tools carries no ads, no sponsored slots and no paid listings, so the order reflects price and nothing else.
