Integrated Terminal

Claudette includes a full-featured terminal emulator built with xterm.js and portable-pty, running natively alongside your agent sessions.

Toggle the terminal panel with ⌘/Ctrl + `. The terminal opens in the current workspace’s worktree directory, so you’re always in the right context.

You can open multiple terminal tabs within each workspace. Each tab runs its own shell session in the workspace’s worktree.

Adjust the terminal font size in Settings > Appearance > Terminal font size (range: 8–24px, default: 11px).

Every terminal session has workspace environment variables set automatically — $CLAUDETTE_WORKSPACE_NAME, $CLAUDETTE_WORKSPACE_PATH, $CLAUDETTE_ROOT_PATH, and others. These are useful for scripts and tools that need to know which workspace they’re running in.

For enhanced terminal tracking — including command status indicators in the sidebar — see the Shell Integration guide.
