Review fixes for the Board. Keys to the right agent - A card resolves the exact pane that speaks for its tab; Allow, Pause, reply, output and note_runs no longer hit the first agent pane of a split. - Allow (button, menu, drag, key) carries the prompt it was drawn with and only sends Enter if the agent still waits on that same permission prompt. - A reply is refused while a prompt is pending; drafts are kept per card. Work is not destroyed silently - Clean up confirms when a pane is still running something or extra tabs in the worktree would close; deletes the task first, closes tabs, waits for panes, then removes the worktree; the toast names the refs/tty7/trash ref. Clean up all confirms with the count, folded cards included. - The composer keeps a draft on Esc / scrim / close; a long one-line task keeps its full text as the prompt; branch names are checked inline and a taken name says which one will be used; typed paths are checked on the host. State - Done records where each run stood (tab, session, turns, busy), so a busy card dragged to Done stays there and a relaunched agent leaves Done. - Worktree starts show "Starting…", can't be started twice, and append the run to the current task instead of a stale copy. - Pending task edits survive a resync and are replayed. - A full board evicts the oldest Done card; removing a missing task is a no-op. - The last column is held while a tab's agent is connecting. Interaction - Undo stack (10) of field-level reverts, bound to secondary-z on the board. - A/D/P/R and Shift-F10 on the selected card; Esc cancels a drag first. - "Filtered · Clear" chip; stale group filters clear; the sidebar count ignores filters; arrows skip folded Done cards; zoom is restored after the board. - Agent picker opens downward and scrolls; toasts are width-capped. - Toggle Board off macOS is ctrl-shift-y (alt-0 took Meta-0 from readline). CLI - task done clears paused; relative --cwd is made absolute; --worktree needs --cwd; task ls errors on a server without the board.
tty7
A terminal workbench: persistent sessions, remote work, agents.
Pure Rust · GPU rendering on Zed's gpui · VT core from Alacritty
English · 简体中文
Why
A background server owns your shells and panes — not the window. Everything below follows from that.
- Performance — ~2× the throughput of Alacritty, Ghostty, or Kitty (benchmarks)
- Persistent sessions — quit or reboot; your shells and supported agent sessions keep running, no tmux
- Agent-aware — Claude Code, Codex & co.: status, notifications, and git context for every repo at once
- Scriptable by agents — one agent opens a pane for another, hands off a task, waits, and reads the result, with or without the GUI running
- Editor-grade input — suggestions, completion, highlighting, history search, with no plugin to install
- Remote development — files, repos, panes, and git data stay on the remote machine, over a native SSH stack

Supported agents
Detection is free: brand avatar, branch + diff, tab title.
Status takes one click under Settings → Integrations to install that agent's hook,
and brings the status dot, notifications, the tray icon, tty7 wait, and resume
after a reboot. Fork needs both — the agent's own fork command, and the hook
that tells tty7 which session to fork.

None of them are wrapped or proxied — the agent you start is the agent you get,
in a normal PTY, with its own interface. An agent launched through a wrapper
script can be mapped to one by name with agent_commands in config.json.
Every agent on your PATH is also a row in Search Everywhere (Agent: Claude Code, …)
that opens it in a new tab, and the New Tab menu names the ones you have actually
run. agent_launch sets the command line it starts with.
