Overview
Intelligent Terminal is an experimental fork of Windows Terminal by Microsoft that brings native AI agent integration directly into the command line. It works with any Agent Client Protocol (ACP)-compatible agent CLI, auto-detecting installed agents like GitHub Copilot, Claude, Codex, and Gemini on first launch.
Key Features
- Agent Status Bar: Real-time agent status displayed in the terminal interface
- Agent Pane: Integrated side panel for interacting with AI agents using shell output context
- Agent Management: Auto-detection and configuration of ACP-compatible agent CLIs
- Error Detection: Automatic detection and AI-assisted resolution of command-line errors
- Shell Context Awareness: Agent has direct context on shell output without copy-pasting
Use Cases
- Developers seeking AI-assisted command-line workflows without leaving the terminal
- Teams standardizing on Windows who want integrated AI assistance in their daily CLI work
- Power users who want to interact with multiple AI agents (Copilot, Claude, Codex, Gemini) from one terminal
