Terminal
Terminal, Overview
A full terminal, running your actual shell, docked in the same window as your code and reachable in one keystroke.
Opening a terminal
Press Ctrl+` to toggle the integrated terminal panel. It opens rooted at your workspace folder, running whichever shell is your system default — PowerShell or Command Prompt on Windows, zsh or bash on macOS and Linux, or anything else you configure.
Shell Integration & Profiles
Command decorations, working-directory detection, and multiple shell profiles side by side.
Tasks
Turn a terminal command you run often into a one-click, or automatic, task.
Managing multiple terminals
Open more than one
Click the + in the terminal panel's tab bar, or press Ctrl+Shift+`, to open additional terminal instances.
Split panes
Click the split icon to divide the terminal panel and run two shells side by side — handy for a dev server in one pane and ad-hoc commands in the other.
Rename and group
Right-click a terminal tab to rename it, change its icon or color, or move it into a split group — useful once you have several running at once for different purposes.
Kill or restart
Close a terminal with the trash icon, or restart the same profile in a fresh instance from the dropdown next to it.
Terminal and Gunamaya AI
Gunamaya AI runs commands in the same integrated terminal you use manually — when it installs a dependency or runs your test suite, you see it happen in a real terminal instance, not a hidden subprocess, and you can take over that same terminal yourself at any point. See Tools, Rules & Context for how command approvals work.
Clear scrollback without losing your prompt
Ctrl+K clears the terminal's scrollback buffer while keeping your current shell session alive — faster than closing and reopening a terminal just to get a clean view.
