Why You Need This

How this feature boosts your daily productivity

Developers constantly need to see multiple outputs at once — a dev server log, a test runner, a database shell, and an AI agent. Traditional terminals force you into a single-pane view or require complex tmux configurations. 1DevTool gives you one-click layout switching: grid for monitoring, columns for comparing outputs, and fullscreen for deep focus. Your terminal arrangement adapts to your task, not the other way around.

How It Works

Get started in 4 simple steps

1
1

Open a Terminal

Click "+" to create a new terminal tab. Choose from Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Amp, bash, zsh, or custom shells.

2

Arrange Your Layout

Switch between grid, columns, or fullscreen with one click. Drag dividers to resize panes to your preference.

Monitor & Manage

Use the Terminal Dashboard for a bird's-eye view. Sessions persist across restarts so you never lose context.

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.
