Terminal Mode by Even Realities unlocks an ambient terminal on Even G2 smart glasses. When a coding agent stalls, you catch it: see which agent needs you now, give direction, and approve key steps while your laptop runs long tasks, so token-maxers get more from every run and vibe coders stay in flow.

Hey Product Hunt, I’m David from Even Realities. Today we’re launching Terminal Mode by Even Realities for Even G2 smart glasses: an ambient terminal for the AI coding agents running on your laptop. AI coding agents are getting better at long-running tasks. But they still stall at small human moments: a review approval, a blocked command, a quick instruction, a yes/no choice. If you miss that moment, the agent waits. Terminal Mode makes sure you never miss that moment on Even G2 glasses. Your laptop still does the heavy work. Even G2 gives you a terminal layer in your line of sight, so you can see which agent needs you now, give a short voice instruction, and approve key steps with a tap. This is not about replacing your laptop. It is about filling the gaps between focused desk time, so your agents do not sit idle just because you stepped away from the screen. Terminal Mode by Even Realities unlocks: - Monitoring AI coding agents from Even G2 smart glasses - Seeing which agent is running, blocked, or waiting - Giving quick direction by voice - Approving key steps with a tap - Keeping agents moving while you are on the go We’d love feedback from builders using Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or other coding agents: What are you building with coding agents right now, and when do they usually get stuck?

Comment highlights

Honestly didn't expect smart glasses to find their killer feature in waiting for Claude Code to ask permission, but here we are — and it makes total sense. Most of my agent downtime is exactly this: it's blocked on a yes/no while I'm away from the desk getting coffee.

How fast does a voice instruction actually reach the agent? If there's a noticeable lag, that glance-and-approve flow loses its magic.

Anyway, interesting product. Curious where this goes as agents run longer on their own.

This is one of those ideas that seems obvious in hindsight but nobody was doing. Having agent output always visible while coding is a genuine workflow improvement, not just a nice-to-have. Curious how it handles multi-file refactors where you need to jump between contexts.

This is exactly what the 'agentic' future needs! I'm deep into building web utilities and custom backend automation right now. The biggest friction point is always the micro-approvals—an agent waiting idle for me to confirm a script change just because I walked away from the screen. Giving voice instructions on the go sounds like a massive productivity unlock. Amazing work bridging this gap!"

Clean launch for Terminal Mode by Even Realities: Keep coding agents always in sight. How are you measuring whether it is working for people?

Our dev team has been deep in claude code lately and the "agent stalled while you stepped away" problem is real. curious about the price point - is this for individual buyers or do you see teams equipping multiple devs?

A question about the glasses in general: as far as I remember, your glasses don’t have a camera. Have you considered adding a camera with a small physical shutter that can be opened or closed with a finger?

Keeping an agent's output in my peripheral view instead of alt-tabbing to a terminal is a genuinely different way to babysit long-running jobs. How readable is a streaming log on the display in practice — do you diff it down, or show the raw tail?

This is one of the first smart glasses use cases that actually feels practical to me. Catching the moment an agent needs input, without babysitting the laptop, is a real workflow fix.

I've talked to developers who basically set a timer and walk away from their agent runs, then come back and see what happened. That works until the agent hits a decision point halfway through and spins for an hour. Live visibility changes that risk calculation entirely.

I noticed the connection stability improvements in the latest release. What was causing the issue before?

Terminal Mode is the first feature that makes me feel like I've been underusing the hardware I already own. That's the best thing a software update can do.

Are non-coding use cases already being explored, or is the focus staying on developers for now?

Smart glasses have been looking for a killer use case for years. 'Ambient supervisor for AI agents' is interesting because it targets a workflow that's actively growing, not a general consumer behavior

The peripheral vision framing clicks! The stall that actually costs me is the agent that asked a clarifying question 15 min ago and just sat there quietly. How do you keep someone from tapping approve on a destructive command when the HUD can only show them one line of it?

The voice experience is what I'm most curious about. How well does it work in places with a lot of background noise?

Will's line about 'a glance, a tap, a word' was probably my favorite part of the launch. Most smart glasses products try to compete with phones. This feels like a different philosophy.

How do you prevent accidental approvals while moving around or during daily activity?

This feels oddly practical. Half the time an agent gets stuck, I don't notice until I come back 20 min later. Being able to keep an eye on progress w/o constantly switching context is interesting

Funny how the bottleneck flipped: the agent codes fine on its own, the expensive part is the human not noticing it stalled 20 minutes ago waiting for a yes/no. I run long Claude Code sessions and the round trip of "check the laptop, it was just waiting on an approval" adds up more than I'd like to admit. Glasses may feel early, but the underlying insight - agent state belongs in your peripheral vision, not buried in a terminal tab - seems right. How do you decide what's worth surfacing vs noise when multiple agents are running?
