Peter Pistorius(@appfactory):I’ve started building Machinen Desktop: a spatial desktop for persistent terminal windows. Every terminal is backed by a multiplexer, so sessions never die; and friends can join those same sessions to collaborate and share compute! The entire app is controllable through a TypeScript API over HTTP. Your agent can create and arrange windows, run commands, and manage the workspace while you observe. It’s also fully pluggable through TypeScript. Plugins can add status-bar widgets, handle events, define context menus, and more... so each workspace can be tailored to its own needs. Follow along here: https://t.co/8DLpvgWL9K I use it daily, but it has some rough edges.
