Agent UI Feedback

[Gin-Quin]

Hi! Awesome work, I love the product.

Some feedback concerning the agent interface. I think it could be quite simplified, and that the agents could be directly integrated into the terminal view, like ForgeCode does.

Currently, there is a clear terminal prompt / agent prompt that makes things overly complicated. We have two different prompt fields in the same window, and two different panels, placed in different parts of the screen, just for the agent.

The ForgeCode approach is the best to me (also, ForgeCode is one of the best coding harnesses, if you want to use / reuse it in your project), as it allows you to "speak" to your terminal. They do it with a zsh plugin by intercepting commands starting with ":", but if you own the terminal, you can make it even simpler, like:

• pressing enter sends a terminal command,
• pressing command+enter sends an agent request.

That would also allow cool stuff like talking to an agent when connected via ssh, which is one of the killer features of Warp for me.

https://github.com/upstairsupstairs33/chatgpt-browser-terminal-agent give this a try i built it and it works with all ai that has a browser ui (chatgpt subscription gemini scubscription, ect...) this one is built for chatgpt.com you can test it out without having a subscription or not, if you use another ai paid subscription you would have to edit the selctors but check the code out i think i made something significant no more paying for api keys

+1 on integrating the agent directly into the terminal view rather than split panels.

That is essentially the design bet we made with WinkTerm: AI and user share one PTY session. You type # at the shell prompt for in-terminal chat; the agent suggests/pre-fills commands and you press Enter. No separate agent prompt field.

Worth a look if ForgeCode-style same-session UX is what you are after — would love to hear how Terax approaches the tradeoffs differently.
