The whole project.
One window.

Terminal, files, editor, Git review, AI agents, containers, and remote rigs — all pointed at the same working directory. Stop re-explaining your project to five different apps.

Apache-2.0 · macOS / Windows + WSL / Linux · your AI keys, your machine

The Termco workspace: terminal, file explorer, editor, and Git in one window

$ termco --tour

Watch it work.

Every capture below is the real application. No mockups.

01 / agents

AI that shows its work.

Chat, launch managed coding agents, or connect an MCP client — against the workspace you're looking at. Every tool call and file change stays visible, gated behind your approval.

Git diff review beside the working tree
02 / git

Review diffs where you made them.

Git review lives beside the working tree. Checking an agent's change — or your own — means glancing sideways, not finding your place in another app.

03 / preview

See the app beside its code.

Run a local service and open its Preview next to the editor. Change, glance, repeat — the loop never leaves the window.

04 / remote

Local feel. Remote reach.

Connect an SSH rig, browse its files and containers, forward ports, hand the same directory to an agent. Only the machine changes.

05 / plugins

Fork the parts you disagree with.

The whole runtime is plugins that release independently. Don't like how a piece works? Fork it, edit it, replace it — restore the original any time.

$ man termco

Questions, answered.

Anything else — open a discussion on GitHub. The whole project is public.

Is Termco free?

Yes. Open source under Apache-2.0 — the application, the plugin contracts, and the release process are all public.

Do I need an account?

No. Install Termco and open a workspace — nothing is gated behind a login.

Which AI providers work?

Whatever fits the project — hosted providers, compatible endpoints, or local models. External MCP clients can connect to the workspace too.

Where do my credentials live?

On your device, behind OS-protected storage. They don't need to pass through Termco services.

How do updates work?

The app and its plugins release independently. Update only what changed — and roll a plugin back any time.

$ termco .
