aiTerminal
A fast, light, AI-first terminal.
aiTerminal is a fast, light, AI-first terminal written from scratch in Rust — zero external crates. @ai agents at your prompt, 19 live themes, splits, a dockable tab bar, profiles, 31 declarative plugins.
It is a *terminal*, full stop: PTY panes, tabs and splits, themes, keymaps, plugins,
profiles. The AI is woven into the shell itself through one idea:
> 💡 **Everything is a terminal command.** No settings UI, no side apps — you type
> `@`-commands at your normal prompt and edit TOML files.
```text
❯ @ai find the 5 biggest files under src and sort them
❯ press Enter to run (or edit)
❯ du -a src | sort -rn | head -5
❯ @coder "add a --json flag to the export command" # a full agentic run
❯ @flow review "the auth module" # a multi-step workflow
❯ @loop "make the tests pass" --check "cargo test" # iterate until verified
❯ @flow implement --bg "migrate configs to TOML" # …in the background
❯ @job # monitor runs + logs
❯ @profile switch work # live profile switch
```
## 🌟 Highlights
- 🦀 **A real terminal, built from nothing** — a from-scratch VT engine, PTY, GPU
renderer, TOML/JSON parsers, regex engine, BM25 ranker, HTTP transport. The
dependency list is empty, and CI keeps it that way.
- ✂️ **Native-feel editing** — `⌥/⌘ arrows` jump by word / to the line ends,
`⇧`+arrows **select on the command line** (a light band, your syntax colors
stay on top), typing replaces the selection, `Esc` cancels, `⌘C` copies.
All of it is a zsh plugin (`lineedit`), not hardcoded terminal magic.
- 🧘 **Calm, stable rendering** — steady block cursor (`bar`/`underline` one config
line away), ghost-free damage-tracked frames, burst-settled presents, an idle
event loop that uses near-zero CPU.
- 🔋 **31 builtin plugins, all data** — prompt, autosuggest, syntax highlighting,
completion, history, git (100+ aliases), docker, kubernetes, extract, jump,
sudo, clipboard (OSC 52), … Each is a `plugin.toml` + optional shell snippet;
disable any with `@plugin disable `.
- 🎨 **19 live themes** — `@theme ` restyles the window, the prompt, syntax
colors and `ls` colors from any shell, instantly.
- 👤 **Profiles that mean it** — per-profile config overlay + saved workspace
(tabs, splits, per-pane cwd/zoom, styled scrollback). `@profile switch work`
from any shell; the window follows live.
- 🛡️ **AI with guardrails** — provider-agnostic streaming engine, weighted
multi-model pools, agents/skills/prompts as Markdown, flows as TOML, BM25
memory, MCP, sub-agents — behind a command guard (allow/deny/confirm) and
secret redaction on every egress path. AI is **off** until you declare a model.
