Did it finish? Did it open a PR? Did it crash?\n\nYour options right now:\n- Open cursor.com, find the agents page, scroll, click, read\n- Check your email for a notification that may or may not come\n- Hope for the best\n\n`agents-control-tower` is a retro terminal dashboard that connects to the Cursor Cloud Agents API and shows you everything in one screen. Launch new agents, send follow-up instructions, stop runaway agents, delete finished ones. All without leaving your terminal.\n\n```bash\nnpx agents-control-tower\n```\n\nOne command. The tower lights up.\n\n**Features**\n- Launch Cursor cloud agents from the terminal (repo, prompt, model)\n- Send follow-up instructions to running agents without leaving the TUI\n- Stop or delete agents from the dashboard\n- See status at a glance: running (amber), done (with PR link), errors (red)\n- No install needed — run with `npx` or install globally for the `control-tower` command\n\n---\n\n\u003ca id=\"the-dashboard\"\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\n\n## The Dashboard\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n  \u003cimg src=\"assets/screenshot.png\" alt=\"agents-control-tower dashboard\" width=\"820\" /\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\nRunning agents pulse amber. Done agents link to their PR. Errors glow red.\n\n---\n\n## What's Different\n\n| | Cursor web dashboard | Conduit | SwarmClaw | agents-control-tower |\n|---|---|---|---|---|\n| Cursor-native | yes | no | no | yes |\n| Terminal UI | no | yes | no | yes |\n| Launch agents | no | no | partial | yes |\n| Follow-up / stop / delete | no | no | no | yes |\n| Local agent hooks | no | no | no | Phase 2 |\n| Retro ASCII aesthetic | no | no | no | yes |\n| One command install | n/a | yes | no | yes |\n\n---\n\n## What You Can Do\n\n| Key | Action | |\n|-----|--------|-|\n| `n` | Launch a new cloud agent | Pick repo, write prompt, choose model |\n| `f` | Send follow-up | Give a running agent new instructions |\n| `s` | Stop an agent | Kill it mid-run |\n| `d` | Delete an agent | Remove permanently |\n| `o` | Open in browser | Jump to the PR or agent URL |\n| `enter` | View details | Full conversation, metadata, status |\n| `↑↓` / `jk` | Navigate | Move between agents |\n| `r` | Refresh | Force sync with Cursor API |\n| `c` | Reconfigure | Re-run setup wizard |\n\nThe dashboard polls every 5 seconds. Scroll through agents with arrow keys, view full agent messages with scrollable detail view.\n\n---\n\n## Install\n\nRequires **Node 20+**. Published as **[agents-control-tower](https://www.npmjs.com/package/agents-control-tower)** on npm.\n\nRun directly with npx (nothing to install):\n\n```bash\nnpx agents-control-tower\n```\n\nOr install globally for a shorter command:\n\n```bash\nnpm install -g agents-control-tower\ncontrol-tower\n```\n\nBoth `agents-control-tower` and `control-tower` work after global install.\n\nFirst run asks for your Cursor API key. Grab one from [cursor.com/dashboard - Integrations](https://cursor.com/dashboard?tab=integrations). Saved to `~/.agents-control-tower/config.json`.\n\nOr pass it as an env var:\n\n```bash\nCURSOR_API_KEY=sk-... control-tower\n```\n\n---\n\n## How It Works\n\n| Source | What | How |\n|--------|------|-----|\n| Cursor Cloud API | List, launch, stop, delete agents. Read conversations | REST, polled every 5s |\n| Cursor Hooks (coming) | Local IDE sessions, file edits, shell commands | File-based event stream |\n\n```mermaid\ngraph LR\n    A[Cursor Cloud API] --\u003e|poll 5s| B[State Store]\n    C[Cursor Hooks] --\u003e|file watcher| B\n    B --\u003e D[Ink TUI]\n```\n\n### Tech Stack\n\n| | |\n|---|---|\n| \u003cimg src=\"https://img.shields.io/badge/Ink_5-React_for_CLIs-61DAFB?logo=react\u0026logoColor=white\" alt=\"Ink\" /\u003e | TUI framework |\n| \u003cimg src=\"https://img.shields.io/badge/TypeScript-strict-3178C6?logo=typescript\u0026logoColor=white\" alt=\"TypeScript\" /\u003e | Type safety |\n| \u003cimg src=\"https://img.shields.io/badge/Node.js-≥20-339933?logo=node.js\u0026logoColor=white\" alt=\"Node.js\" /\u003e | Runtime |\n| \u003cimg src=\"https://img.shields.io/badge/tsup-build-000000?logo=esbuild\u0026logoColor=white\" alt=\"tsup\" /\u003e | Bundler |\n| \u003cimg src=\"https://img.shields.io/badge/Vitest-testing-6E9F18?logo=vitest\u0026logoColor=white\" alt=\"Vitest\" /\u003e | Tests |\n\n---\n\n## Screens\n\nLaunch wizard - 3 steps: pick repo (with fuzzy filter), write the task prompt, select model and launch.\n\nAgent detail - repo, branch, PR link, the prompt you gave it, and the full agent response with scroll.\n\nFollow-up - send new instructions to a running agent without leaving the terminal.\n\nStop / Delete - inline confirmation. Press `s` or `d`, then `y`.\n\n---\n\n## Keyboard Map\n\n```\n DASHBOARD                          DETAIL VIEW\n ──────────────────────────         ──────────────────────────\n n         launch new agent         esc       back to dashboard\n ↑ / k     move up                  f         send follow-up\n ↓ / j     move down                s         stop agent\n enter     open detail              d         delete agent\n s         stop selected            o         open PR / URL\n d         delete selected          ↑↓        scroll message\n r         force refresh\n q         quit                    LAUNCH FLOW\n                                    ──────────────────────────\n GLOBAL                             ↑↓        navigate options\n ──────────────────────────         /         filter repos\n ctrl+c    quit immediately         enter     select / confirm\n c         reconfigure              esc       cancel / go back\n```\n\n---\n\n## Contributing\n\nContributions welcome.
