Built-in terminal
Context Code embeds a real terminal (with a native pseudo-terminal, not an imitation): what runs there is your usual shell, inside the app and next to the agent chat.
- Show/hide the terminal is available as a command in the quick search, in addition to the panel button.
- You can split the view into several panes and keep, say, a server running in one and one-off commands in another.
- The project’s run and build buttons dump their output here, in plain sight.
The terminal and the agent
Section titled “The terminal and the agent”The agent runs its commands under the rules of the chat’s approval mode: in “Ask for approval” every command reaches you as a card before it runs; in “Read only” it runs nothing. Every command the agent executes is logged in the conversation along with its output.
