I've been working on a unified cli that works for github, gitlab, gitea/forgejo and bitbucket. So you (or a coding agent) doesn't need to learn 4 different sets of commands for what are basically all doing the same things:

I wrote a deep dive on CIDs, the self-describing cryptographic fingerprints behind every record, blob, commit, and Merkle tree node in ATProtocol. Part 1 covers the history, the encoding primitives, and the specific constraints ATProtocol applies.
