Integrated Terminal

Full terminal power, right where you need it

A complete terminal experience with PTY support, multiple tabs, and ANSI color rendering. Run builds, tests, servers—Claude can see the output and react in real-time.

True PTY Support

This isn't a toy terminal. Full pseudo-terminal support means you can run interactive programs, see colors and formatting exactly as intended, and use all your favorite CLI tools.

  • Full ANSI color rendering
  • Interactive program support (vim, htop, etc.)
  • Multiple terminal tabs
  • Persistent sessions across app restarts
zsh
npm run dev
+
$ npm test
✓ 47 tests passed
Time: 2.3s

AI-Aware Output

Claude sees what happens in your terminal. When tests fail, Claude can read the error messages. When a build breaks, Claude understands why. The terminal is part of the conversation.

  • Claude runs commands and sees results
  • Error messages inform AI responses
  • Real-time feedback loop
  • No context switching to separate terminal
