AI Activity Logs
Real-time activity feed that shows terminal completions and AI-generated files across all projects — with one-click navigation.
Why You Need This
How this feature boosts your daily productivity
When you run 3-4 AI agents across multiple projects, you waste 30-60 minutes per day just checking which terminals finished. Without notifications, your workflow becomes a polling loop: check terminal 1, check terminal 2, repeat. Activity Logs replace that loop with a real-time event feed — the moment Claude Code finishes on your backend project, you see it, even if you're focused on something else. Click the notification to jump straight to that terminal or generated file. Cross-project by default, so you never miss a completion on a background project.
How It Works
Get started in 4 simple steps
Open a Terminal
Click "+" to create a new terminal tab. Choose from Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Amp, bash, zsh, or custom shells.
Arrange Your Layout
Switch between grid, columns, or fullscreen with one click. Drag dividers to resize panes to your preference.
Run Your Agents
Start your AI agents with pre-configured prompts or type freely. Watch them work in real-time with status indicators.
Monitor & Manage
Use the Terminal Dashboard for a bird's-eye view. Sessions persist across restarts so you never lose context.

How it compares
With several agents running, people check each terminal in turn or rely on desktop notifications from their terminal app.
1DevToolBuilt inBuilt inOne feed lists terminal completions and AI-generated files across every project, and clicking an entry opens that terminal or file.
- Partly
Warp can send a desktop notification when a long-running command finishes, so you know to go back to that session.
- iTerm2PartlyPartly
iTerm2 can post a notification when a session goes idle, rings the bell or ends, and Alert on Next Mark flags when a command finishes.
- Partly
Herdr's sidebar and tabs show whether each agent is working, done or waiting on you.

Why It Matters
The productivity impact of having terminal & ai agents built into your workspace
Zero Context Switching
All your AI agents and terminals live in one window. No more alt-tabbing between 5 different terminal apps.
Visual Status Tracking
Color-coded tabs and the Kanban dashboard tell you which agents are done, running, or need attention — at a glance.
Persistent Sessions
Tmux-backed persistence means your terminal state survives crashes and restarts. Never lose scrollback history again.
Flexible Arrangements
One-click layouts adapt to your task: grid for monitoring, columns for comparing, fullscreen for deep focus.
