Show HN: 8 months extending my terminal to handle all my work with all agents (github.com)

I’ve been using this as my only terminal since January, adding things I needed and keeping what worked well. I didn’t expect so many useful additions to work so well with a terminal and Electron as the base.

I still check out agents in desktop apps and IDEs from time to time, curious to see what they offer. But with this terminal, I don’t want to work any other way.

Let me know what additions are important to you.

It's interesting to see people who share the same sentiment as me. The terminal has been my primary development environment for some time now and I can't seem to build products using another surface. I use coldtea ai though.

'Let me know what additions are important to you.'

Can your tool support cross-agent communication?. I often use both codex and claude, and most times, I expect them to work together as a team across multiple terminal panes?

I did think about adding a messaging channel through the stream hub, which is the relay behind the phone (web) viewer. But I did not built it because lack of strong needs. I sometimes copy or rephrase messages between agents, for example, if I hit an AgentTerm bug in a session, I take it to a separate session to avoid context getting polluted.

What kinds of things do you have Codex and Claude talking to each other? I am interested in real examples to understand better.
