What is Zerostack?

Zerostack (github.com/gi-dellav/zerostack) is a minimal AI coding agent written in Rust — 26MB binary, ~16MB RAM (vs ~700MB for JS agents). 1,300 GitHub stars. 81-point Show HN. Ongoing HN traction (v1.3.4 and v1.5.0 posts). GPL-3.0 open source.

Supports 75+ LLM providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, Ollama, OpenRouter) and optional MCP support as a compile-time feature. Not in codetalker's integration list.

Why it matters for codetalker

Zerostack targets developers running all-day agentic loops in constrained environments (low-RAM VMs, headless CI boxes). This is exactly the use case where audio narration ("agent completed the auth refactor, starting tests") adds the most value over visual monitoring.

Files needed

  • docs/integrations/zerostack.md — new integration guide
  • README.md — add Zerostack row

Key open question

MCP config path/format is unconfirmed (TOML vs JSON, ~/.config/zerostack/ vs other path). Must be verified against current Zerostack docs before the guide can go live.

Also: is MCP compiled in by default, or requires --features mcp build flag?

Full draft spec

See docs/superpowers/specs/2026-06-22-integrate-zerostack.md on branch docs/landscape-report-2026-06-22.
