Score: 7.0/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 7, Utility: 6)

Imza is a native C++ terminal coding agent that enforces a Plan-Build-Review loop, keeping the developer in control via co-editable plan documents and review findings fed back as plan revisions. It stands out with sandboxed Lua tool scripting for fewer model round-trips, MCP support, and a lightweight footprint compared to Electron-based agents.

Target audience: backend devs, systems programmers, devops engineers
