A native PTY backend with a WebGL renderer, an agentic AI side-panel that runs against your own keys or fully local models, plus a code editor, file explorer, source control with a git graph, and a web preview pane built in. About 7-8 MB on disk. No telemetry. No account.\n\n## Screenshots\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"docs/terminal.png\" alt=\"Terminal\" /\u003e\u003cbr/\u003e\u003csub\u003eMulti-tab terminal with WebGL rendering\u003c/sub\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"docs/themes.png\" alt=\"Themes and background image\" /\u003e\u003cbr/\u003e\u003csub\u003eCustom themes, presets, and background images\u003c/sub\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\n  \u003c/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"docs/web-preview.png\" alt=\"Web preview\" /\u003e\u003cbr/\u003e\u003csub\u003eWeb preview of local dev servers\u003c/sub\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"docs/source-control.png\" alt=\"Source control and git graph\" /\u003e\u003cbr/\u003e\u003csub\u003eSource control panel with git graph in history\u003c/sub\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\n  \u003c/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd colspan=\"2\" align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"docs/ai-workflow.png\" alt=\"AI window\" /\u003e\u003cbr/\u003e\u003csub\u003eAgentic AI workflow with edit diffs in the code editor\u003c/sub\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\n  \u003c/tr\u003e\n\u003c/table\u003e\n\n## Features\n\n### Terminal\n\n- xterm.js with WebGL renderer, multi-tab with background streaming\n- Native PTY backend via `portable-pty` (zsh, bash, pwsh, fish, cmd)\n- Split panels (horizontal and vertical)\n- Inline search, link detection, true-color\n- Per-tab workspace environments on Windows (Local, or any installed WSL distro)\n\n### Code editor\n\n- CodeMirror 6 (supports all popular languages - TS/JS, Rust, Python, Go, C/C++, Java, HTML/CSS, JSON, Markdown, etc.)\n- Inline AI autocomplete with local model support\n- AI edit diffs, accept or reject hunk by hunk\n- Vim mode\n- Ten built-in editor themes: Atom One, Aura, Copilot, GitHub Dark / Light, Gruvbox Dark, Nord, Tokyo Night, Xcode Dark / Light\n\n### Source control\n\n- Stage / unstage hunks, commit (Cmd+Enter / Ctrl+Enter), push with upstream awareness\n- Branch display including detached HEAD state\n- Git history pane with a real commit graph (lane rendering for merges and branches)\n- Commit search and filter, click through to the remote commit page\n\n### File explorer\n\n- Catppuccin icon theme\n- Fuzzy search, keyboard navigation, inline rename, context actions\n- Attach files and selections directly to the AI side-panel\n\n### Web preview\n\n- Auto-detects local dev servers and opens them in a preview tab\n- External URL preview via a native child webview\n\n### Themes and customization\n\n- Custom themes built in-app, switch between bundled presets and your own\n- Create your own themes, share them or import from the community\n- Background images with adjustable opacity and blur\n- Editor theme is independent from the app theme\n\n### AI\n\n- **BYOK providers:** OpenAI, Anthropic, Google (Gemini), Groq, xAI (Grok), Cerebras, OpenRouter, DeepSeek, Mistral, plus any OpenAI-compatible endpoint\n- **Local / offline:** LM Studio, MLX, Ollama\n- **Agentic workflow:** plans, sub-agents, project memory via `TERAX.md`, file read / write / edit / multi-edit / grep / glob, bash with approval gating, background processes\n- **Composer:** snippets via `#handle`, files via `@path`, slash commands, voice input, attach-to-agent from explorer or selection\n- **Custom agents** with their own system prompt and tool subset\n- **Plan mode** for multi-step work, generates and confirms before doing\n\n## Install\n\nLatest installers are on the [Releases](https://github.com/crynta/terax-ai/releases/latest) page. Terax auto-updates from there.\n\n### Windows notes\n\n- On first launch Windows shows \"Windows protected your PC\" because Terax isn't code-signed yet (will be fixed soon). Click **More info** then **Run anyway**.\n- Default shell detection: `pwsh.exe` (PowerShell 7+) -\u003e `powershell.exe` (Windows PowerShell 5.1), -\u003e `cmd.exe`.\n- WSL is a first-class workspace environment, not a wrapped subprocess.\n\n### Linux notes\n\n- **Arch / AUR:** `yay -S terax-bin` (or `paru`, etc.). Tracks the latest release.\n- **AppImage:** needs FUSE. Without it: `./Terax_*.AppImage --appimage-extract-and-run`. On Wayland with rendering glitches, try `WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1`. Otherwise the `.deb` / `.rpm` packages link against the system GTK stack and tend to be smoother.\n\n## Configure AI\n\n1. Open **Settings -\u003e AI**.\n2. Pick a provider and paste your API key. For local inference, point Terax at your LM Studio / MLX / Ollama endpoint.\n3. Keys are written to the OS keychain via `keyring`. They never touch disk or localStorage.\n\n## Build from source\n\n**Prerequisites**\n- Rust (stable), https://rustup.rs\n- Node 20+ and [pnpm](https://pnpm.io)\n- Tauri prerequisites for your platform, https://tauri.app/start/prerequisites/\n\n**Run**\n```bash\npnpm install\npnpm tauri dev          # development\npnpm tauri build        # production bundle\n```\n\n**Checks**\n```bash\npnpm exec tsc --noEmit          # frontend type-check\ncd src-tauri \u0026\u0026 cargo clippy    # Rust lint\n```\n\n## Tech stack\n\nTauri 2, Rust, `portable-pty`, React 19, TypeScript, xterm.js, CodeMirror 6, Vercel AI SDK v6, Tailwind v4, shadcn/ui, Zustand.\n\n## Contributing\n\nIssues and PRs are welcome!
