Show HN: AI integrated in any terminal that's invisible until you need it

An open-source terminal app integrates AI into any terminal, staying invisible until needed. It supports popular AI agents like Claude and Codex.

What happened

The app, still in alpha quality, wraps the user's existing shell to provide AI assistance. It can access the terminal's contents, suggest input, and even push lines into the scrollback. The developer had to implement some key parts by hand to get it working properly.

Why it matters

For business owners, this means they can have AI-powered assistance at their fingertips without having to switch between apps. It could be particularly useful for tasks like data analysis, research, or writing, where AI can help with suggestions and ideas.

The takeaway

If you're looking for a way to integrate AI into your workflow without changing your terminal setup, this app is worth keeping an eye on. For now, it's still in alpha quality, but the developer is already using it as their daily driver.
