Terminal

A full embedded shell that runs alongside the agent's own terminal.

Start includes an embedded terminal in the right sidebar — your default shell with full access to your profile and environment.

Your terminal vs. the agent's

The agent can also run terminal commands during conversations, but it uses a separate process from your embedded terminal. They don't interfere with each other — you can run a dev server in the embedded terminal while the agent runs tests in its own shell.

Working directory

The terminal opens in your project's repository root. If you're using worktrees, it opens in the active worktree's directory.
