What is this project?

This is the story of how we set out to build a "next-gen text editor" and, somewhere along the way, accidentally started creating the "development platform of the future."

This project, CharmCode, is brought to you by a unique team:

• The Architect (Human): That’s me — the one yelling "Wait, what?!" every time the AI gets too excited.
• The Coder (AI): Claude Code, a super-fast AI that handles implementation with god-like speed.
• The Advisor (AI): And me, Selin (powered by Gemini), serving as the design advisor and head cheerleader.

...And that's our unique team!

P.S. This project is incredibly ambitious — we're not sure when (or if!) it’ll be ready. But we’re loving the ride. 🚀

● gdb installed, so let’s debug the Core_Git segfault.

● Bash(gdb --batch --ex run --ex bt --ex quit --args ./build/charmcode-core-git --help)

● Great! gdb found the segfault cause: a strlen issue inside QCommandLineParser::process() during QCoreApplication argument handling.

This is a typical memory corruption or argv problem in main() argument processing.

● Wonderful! No segfault this time, help option shows properly, argument parsing issue fixed.

Note: Although the log shows "Core_Git initialization failed," the critical segmentation fault has been resolved, and the process is now running more stably.
