Crush CLI Cheatsheet - Charmbracelet Terminal Multi-Model Coding Agent

For terminal coding agents, weight increasingly comes down to distribution and diagnosability. Crush is a single Rust binary from Charmbracelet that runs on macOS, Linux, WSL on Windows, and the BSDs, so copying one file is the whole install. Its TUI is unusually finished for its class, and the built-in LSP integration means answers land on real symbols and diagnostics instead of text-pattern guesses. This table groups installation and startup, sessions and modes, configuration, and session diagnostics, covering how providers are configured, how to read the logs, and when it is reasonable to skip confirmation gates. The deciding question is how much you trust the working directory: inside a project you know, --yolo removes a lot of friction, while in unfamiliar or sensitive repositories a allowed_tools allowlist is the safer shape. Reach for it when you want a portable agent, when behavior looks wrong and you need the log to explain it, or when you want a few commands exempt from confirmation instead of everything.
