Canvas Layout, Prompt History & AI File Detection

Grid layouts and tab bars work for two or three terminals. But when you're running six AI agents across different tasks — a refactor here, tests there, docs on the side — you want to arrange them spatially, like sticky notes on a whiteboard. v1.4.0 introduces a freeform canvas layout where you drag terminals anywhere, plus prompt history to revisit every prompt you've sent to AI agents.

Freeform Canvas Layout

Drag terminals anywhere on an infinite canvas with full zoom and pan support. Position related terminals near each other — put your Claude Code backend terminal next to its test terminal, and your frontend Codex terminal in a separate cluster. The spatial arrangement gives you a visual map of your entire workflow.

Vertical Tabs Layout

Not everyone wants a freeform canvas. v1.4.0 also adds a vertical tabs layout with side-by-side tabs and full-height terminals. Useful when you want two terminals visible simultaneously without the overhead of canvas positioning.

Prompt History: Every Prompt, Searchable

Ever sent a great prompt to Claude Code last week and can't remember the exact wording? Prompt history saves every prompt sent to every AI agent. Browse them in a searchable list, filter by project, agent, or date, and reuse any prompt with one click.

AI File Detection

When an AI agent creates a markdown file — a CHANGES.md, a README update, or a design doc — 1DevTool detects it and notifies you. Click the notification to open the file in a clean reading mode. You never have to wonder "did Claude generate something?" — the notification tells you exactly what was created and where.
