What it does

Auto-tiling terminals — Grid layout that automatically arranges panes
Run any CLI agent — Claude Code, Codex, Copilot CLI, or any terminal program
Spaces — Organize work into separate spaces, each with its own terminals and tasks
Task management — Kanban board with 5 status columns, drag-and-drop support
Persistent workspaces — Layout and state survive restarts (SQLite-backed)
Lightweight — ~2MB binary, ~30-50MB RAM (vs Electron's 200-300MB)
Browser-based — Opens in your default browser, no app window needed
