-tty7 is a desktop terminal for local and remote development. A background server owns
-workspaces and panes, so closing a window does not end the shell or coding agent running
-inside it.
+## Why
+
+- **Performance** — ~2× the throughput of Alacritty, Ghostty, or Kitty ([benchmarks](#benchmarks))
+- **Sessions persist** — quit or reboot; your shells and supported agent sessions keep running, no tmux
+- **Remote workspaces** — files, repos, tabs, panes, diffs, and worktrees run on the remote machine, not beside an SSH shell
+- **Agent-aware** — recognizes Claude Code, Codex & co. in a pane: status, notifications, branch + diff, session resume
+- **CLI + Skills** — gives coding agents an interface to create panes, run real TTY commands, inspect output, and work across connected machines

-## Terminal features
-
-- Input: history suggestions, explained tab completion, syntax highlighting, fuzzy search,
- multi-line editing, and mouse cursor placement.
-- Window: tabs, splits, command palette, scrollback search, IME, nine themes, custom theme
- editing, system-appearance sync, and a tmux keybinding preset.
-- Agents: session fork, context commands, and a tray indicator for agents waiting on input.
-
-For details, see [Features](docs/features.md) · [中文](docs/features.zh-CN.md).
-
-## Persistent sessions
-
-The server keeps shells and panes alive when the application exits. They can be restored
-after the machine restarts. This removes the need to run tmux solely to keep terminal work
-alive.
-
-## Remote workspaces
-
-tty7 uses a native Rust SSH implementation (russh). It supports saved profiles with
-credentials in the OS keychain, `~/.ssh/config` aliases, GUI authentication, SFTP, port
-forwarding, and jump hosts.
-
-When you open a remote workspace, tty7 installs `tty7-server` on the host over the existing
-SSH connection. The installation is one-time and does not require `sudo`. The server holds
-the remote workspace and its panes; they continue running while the local app is closed or
-the connection is unavailable. Reconnect from this or another client to continue using them.
-
-## Agent-aware
-
-tty7 detects supported coding agents in each pane, including Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI,
-Aider, and OpenCode. It shows their status, sends notifications when an agent needs input,
-and displays the pane's git branch and working-tree changes. Supported agent conversations can
-be resumed after a restart.
-
-## CLI + Skills
-
-The `tty7` CLI exposes workspaces and panes to coding agents. The companion
-[agent skill](skills/tty7/SKILL.md) teaches an agent this interface: what each command does, how
-to address a workspace or pane, and when a task needs a real terminal instead of an ordinary
-shell command.
-
-Together, they let an agent use tty7 as a shared terminal environment: create a pane for a task,
-run a server or interactive program there, send more input later, read its output, inspect its
-processes and ports, and work with the same local or connected remote workspaces that you see.
-
-```sh
-tty7 ls # list workspaces and panes
-tty7 pane split %42 --v # create a sibling pane; prints its id
-tty7 send %83 'pnpm dev' --enter # start work in that pane
-tty7 capture %83 --plain # read its output
-tty7 procs %83 # inspect its processes and listening ports
-tty7 run -- cargo test # run a one-off command in a real PTY
-tty7 -m devbox ls # use the same interface on a connected remote
-```
-
-`--json` gives agents structured results when they need to make a decision from workspace, pane,
-process, port, or agent status. The full interface is documented in
-[`skills/tty7/SKILL.md`](skills/tty7/SKILL.md).

-
-- 输入:历史影子建议、带说明的 Tab 补全、语法高亮、模糊搜索、多行编辑和鼠标定位光标。
-- 窗口:标签页、分屏、命令面板、回滚搜索、输入法、9 套主题、主题编辑、跟随系统外观和 tmux 快捷键预设。
-- Agent:会话 fork、上下文命令,以及 agent 等待输入时的托盘提醒。
-
-详细说明见 [功能列表](docs/features.zh-CN.md) · [English](docs/features.md)。
-
-## 常驻会话
-
-应用退出后,server 仍会保持 shell 和 pane;机器重启后可恢复。这样即使不使用 tmux,
-终端中的工作也不会因为关闭窗口而中断。
-
-## 远程工作区
-
-tty7 使用原生 Rust SSH 实现(russh),支持保存的 profile、OS keychain 中的凭据、
-`~/.ssh/config` alias、GUI 认证、SFTP、端口转发和跳板机。
-
-打开远程工作区时,tty7 会通过现有 SSH 连接在主机上安装 `tty7-server`。这项安装只需一次,
-不需要 `sudo`。远端 server 持有工作区及其 pane;本地应用关闭或连接暂时不可用时,它们仍会
-继续运行。之后可从当前或另一台客户端重新连接。
-
-## Agent 感知
-
-tty7 会按 pane 识别已支持的 coding agent,包括 Claude Code、Codex、Gemini CLI、Aider 和
-OpenCode。它会显示状态、在 agent 等待输入时发送通知,并显示该 pane 的 git 分支和工作区改动。
-已支持的 agent 对话可在重启后恢复。
-
-## CLI + Skills
-
-`tty7` CLI 将工作区和 pane 暴露给 coding agent。配套的 [agent skill](skills/tty7/SKILL.md) 会把
-这套接口教给 agent:每个命令的作用、工作区和 pane 的寻址方式,以及什么任务需要真实终端而不是普通
-shell 命令。
-
-两者结合后,agent 可以把 tty7 当成与用户共享的终端环境:为任务创建 pane,在其中运行服务器或交互式
-程序,之后继续发送输入、读取输出、检查进程和端口;本地和已连接远端的工作区都使用同一套操作。
-
-```sh
-tty7 ls # 列出工作区和 pane
-tty7 pane split %42 --v # 新建同级 pane,并打印其 id
-tty7 send %83 'pnpm dev' --enter # 在该 pane 中启动任务
-tty7 capture %83 --plain # 读取其输出
-tty7 procs %83 # 查看其进程和监听端口
-tty7 run -- cargo test # 在真实 PTY 中运行一次性命令
-tty7 -m devbox ls # 对已连接远端使用同一套接口
-```
-
-`--json` 让 agent 可以根据工作区、pane、进程、端口或 agent 状态的结构化结果做决定。完整接口见
-[`skills/tty7/SKILL.md`](skills/tty7/SKILL.md)。
