Zellij is a high-craft terminal multiplexer written in Rust, offering a client-server architecture with native and web clients. It manages terminals, panes, tabs, and sessions with full VT emulation, mouse support, and a plugin system based on WebAssembly. The server handles panes (tiled, floating, stacked), PTY I/O, scrollback, search, sixel/Kitty graphics, and session serialization for resurrection. Plugins (built-in: bars, strider, configuration, prompt, session-manager, etc.) extend the UI via a widget framework with serialization through ANSI DCS escapes. The client processes keyboard/mouse input, provides a web client with xterm.js and WebSocket transport, and supports remote attach with token-based auth. The codebase is exceptionally well-tested (unit + integration test suites, snapshot-based), with clean trait abstractions (ClientOsApi, ServerOsApi, ZellijPlugin) and a custom build system (xtask). It is not a data/research repository.
Higress is a cloud-native, AI-native API gateway built on Istio and Envoy. In production, it operates as a Kubernetes ingress controller, an AI/LLM proxy gateway, and a Wasm plugin host. The system ingests Kubernetes resource definitions (Ingress, Gateway API, custom CRDs like WasmPlugin, Http2Rpc, McpBridge) and translates them into Envoy xDS configurations, managing the full lifecycle of gateway routes, policies, and plugins. It provides a rich set of Wasm plugins (Go, Rust, C++, AssemblyScript) for authentication, rate limiting, request/response transformation, AI proxy (with 15+ LLM providers), semantic caching, RAG, MCP server hosting, and security (WAF, bot detection, IP restriction). The architecture is microservices-oriented: a control plane (Go-based ingress controller) manages Kubernetes resources and pushes config to Envoy data planes; a CLI tool (hgctl) handles installation, plugin development, and debugging; and a plugin release pipeline manages OCI image distribution with provenance verification. External dependencies include Kubernetes (client-go, controller-runtime), Istio (pilot, networking APIs), Envoy (Go filter API), and various AI/vector DB providers (OpenAI, Milvus, Pinecone, etc.).
