Share your terminal with coding agents
Let agents inspect and control the terminals you already have running.
---
## What is Hitch?
Hitch is a lightweight CLI for sharing real terminal with AI coding agents. run `hitch` and agents get your terminals context, can run keys or commands, and inspect output.
Helps with agents running duplicate dev servers, tunnels, and having to copy-paste logs to your agent.
It is not a terminal multiplexer UI like `tmux`. Your terminal still feels like a normal shell; Hitch just proxies input/output, records useful context, and exposes agent-friendly commands.
## Install
```sh
npm install -g hitch-cli
hitch
```
Wizard on first run will help you setup `SKILL.md` with [skills.sh](https://skills.sh) CLI.
> Supported platforms: macOS and Linux on arm64 or x64.
## Usage
Start sharing the current terminal:
```sh
hitch
```
Stop sharing:
```sh
unhitch
# or
hitch off
```
> This is all a human will need! Rest of the commands built for agents.
## SKILL.md
It will help you install it on startup, but to reinstall or update run this:
```sh
hitch setup # recommended, uses 'npx skills'
# or
npx skills add https://github.com/maxktz/hitch skill hitch
```
> If you're curious how this works for the agent, run `hitch --skill` to see the content :D
