MulmoTerminal’s features, organized by the four pillars (Supervise / See / Automate & investigate / Extend). For how to use them, see Basics and Scenarios.
Up to 9 cells per page; overflow adds a new page (tab). Cells auto-sort by state (needs-you first)
Status colors + sound
Working (blue) / awaiting input (amber) / done, review it (blue ring) / idle. Know you’ve been “called” without watching
Cockpit roster
While zoomed with ⤢, a one-row-per-session text list beside the terminal (directory, AI summary, prompt, latest reply, status word). Click a row to swap; ▤ / ☰ toggles the thumbnail filmstrip
Add / close / reorder cells
New terminal ＋, each cell’s ✕, and ◀ ▶ in reorder mode
Worktree isolation
Git worktrees so many agents can run on the same repo without colliding
Session persistence (tmux)
If tmux is available, each session runs inside tmux and reconnects across reloads and server restarts
Phone companion (RemoteHost)
Web Push to your phone on finished / input-waiting turns, plus watch & quick-reply from the phone (→ Mobile notifications)
2. See — what each agent is doing and where
Feature
Description
That agent’s current work
The header shows “what it’s doing right now”
Git status chip
⎇ branch ●changes ↑ahead ↓behind, always shown
PR phase / work phase
Each roster row badges the branch’s PR state (draft / CI fail / changes / ready / merged …) and the work phase (planning / editing)
Model / context size
e.g. Opus · ctx 35% — the active model and how full the context is
Activity timeline 🕘
Tool-call history (Bash / Read / Edit …) shown newest-first in a modal
Cost (estimated)
Approximate session / today / this month cost in settings
Worktree diff badge
Shows the amount of change on a worktree cell; click for the diff panel
GUI panel
Renders diagrams, forms, images, and documents — plus HTML, video/slides (MulmoCast), collections, and accounting — from the agent’s tool calls (Claude / Codex both supported)
Cross-repo PRs / Issues view
All registered repos’ open PRs and issues in one Pull requests view in the toolbar
Wiki / Collections / Accounting / Files
In-app views from the toolbar: a Wiki (with a graph view), collections, accounting, and a file explorer + editor
Update notice
When a new version ships, the header shows an update badge; click it for the update command that fits your install (npm / git clone)
3. Automate & investigate
Feature
Description
Script execution
Run a command from that directory’s script.json. From a running session’s ▶ Run menu it launches in a spare cell next door, so the conversation isn’t interrupted (an empty cell’s launcher runs it in place)
⚡ Skill menu
Lists the skills available in that directory (.claude/skills); picking one runs its /<slug>in the current session. Working-dir skills show first; narrow the list with skills in .mulmoterminal.json
✦ Summarize / Explain
Pass terminal output to claude -p and summarize errors / warnings / cause / how to fix
⧉ Copy as prompt
Copy command + directory + summary + follow-up and paste it into any session
💬 / ⇄ Cross-terminal talk
💬 brings another cell’s last turn into this one; ⇄ Exchange does an automatic round-trip — send, wait for the other agent’s answer, bring it back (great for Claude ↔ Codex mutual review)
Git actions
One click from a worktree cell: commit (ask Claude) / push / ⧉ Open PR
File attach
Drag & drop a file onto the terminal, or use 📎 to pick one in the OS dialog — the absolute path is inserted
Voice input
Dictate into the prompt via microphone transcription
MCP servers
Join your own HTTP MCP servers to sessions via the MCP SERVERS setting
Launch commands
Start something other than Claude (Shell / codex / anything) as a persistent terminal
4. Extend — a DSL to fit you
Feature
Description
Header action buttons
Add input (send text) / open (URL, file manager, in-app views, file picker, new terminal, PR) / shell (run a command) via buttons, with ${variables} and when conditions
Header display chips
Reorder / hide built-in chips plus custom chips via chips
Name badge / colors
Per-directory name and per-element colors in .mulmoterminal.json
Launchers / cwd presets / PR repos
Extend launch commands, working-directory suggestions, and cross-repo PR targets in settings
Themes
Midnight / Nord / Daylight / Solarized Light
Do nothing and it works as before — buttons/chips/colors only take effect for what you add, and the default look is unchanged. For details, see Configuration.
