The workspace

Terminal, browser, and files

Three panes share the window with chat. The composer stays at the bottom, so you can prompt without switching back.

Terminal

Term opens a shell in the active workspace directory. The Rust engine owns that session. The pane is an xterm grid with a WebGL glyph atlas, so full-screen tools repaint in place. Find, remote shells, quick commands, and theme import are on the Terminal page.

Select output and choose Add to chat, or paste it into the composer. Brompter stages a chip such as Terminal 4 (159-164). Click the chip to read the full text with line numbers. You stay on the terminal.

Browser

Web opens a local app address through a frame proxy, including sites that refuse to be framed. The dev toolbar’s URL bar changes the path the preview loads. In the desktop overlay this is the app under the chat. Standalone desktop mode hides iframe-only tools and keeps screenshots.

Files

File browses the workspace, fuzzy-searches names, edits text in the pane, and previews images. HTML can switch between the rendered page and the source. Paths in an assistant message become editor links for VS Code, Cursor, IntelliJ IDEA, or Fleet, including remote forms of those links.
