Terminal Presets

Launch AI coding-agent CLIs straight from a terminal. Agents live in the Agent CLI menu inside the terminal commands menu — the terminal-icon button in the header, alongside Signals, tmux, and Shortcuts — available both in the detailed view and on terminal board tiles. CrispyVibe detects which agent CLIs are installed and launches them for you.

Supported agents

Only agents detected on your system appear, each launching its CLI:

Kiro — kiro-cli
Claude — claude
Codex — codex
Gemini — gemini
OpenCode — opencode
Copilot — copilot

CrispyVibe checks your PATH and standard install directories automatically; results are cached and refreshed when the terminal view appears. If none are found, the menu shows “No agents on PATH.”

Launching an agent

In a terminal (detailed view or a board tile), click the terminal-icon menu in the header.
Open the Agent CLI submenu.
Click an agent (or pick Standard / Full Trust — see below).

Where it lands depends on the surface:

Detailed view — a new terminal tab is created, named after the agent (e.g. “Kiro”, “Claude”), and the command runs there in the active tab’s working directory.
Terminal board tile — the command runs in that tile’s own session.

Keyboard focus moves to the launched session.

Standard or Full Trust

Trust mode is chosen per agent, each time you launch — there’s no global toggle to set and forget.

Agents that support elevated permissions expand into a submenu with Standard and Full Trust:
- Standard — default arguments, no elevated permissions.
- Full Trust — full-trust arguments (for example --dangerously-skip-permissions for Claude, --dangerously-bypass-approvals-and-sandbox for Codex, --approval-mode yolo for Gemini, --trust-all-tools for Kiro, --allow-all for Copilot).
Agents without a full-trust variant (e.g. OpenCode) appear as a single item and launch in Standard.

⚠️ Note: Full Trust auto-approves the agent’s actions. Use it only in projects you trust.

Startup profiles in VibeSpace Settings have their own separate trust selection for auto-launched terminals — that’s unrelated to this menu.

Tips

Your shell resolves the command — it’s dispatched into your interactive shell, which resolves the executable against its own PATH (including .zshrc / .bash_profile additions). Tools installed via version managers (Volta, nvm, asdf, mise, Cargo) work even if the app’s own PATH doesn’t include them.
Re-detection — available agents refresh when the terminal view appears. If you just installed an agent, switch away from and back to the terminal to pick it up.

Troubleshooting

Issue	Solution
Agent not in the menu	Ensure the CLI is installed and on your `PATH`. Try running it in a regular terminal first.
Menu shows “No agents on PATH”	No supported agent detected. Install at least one of: kiro-cli, claude, codex, gemini, opencode, copilot.
”Select a project or terminal directory” error	No working directory available — open a project in the VibeSpace.
Agent launches but the command fails	The tool may need authentication or configuration. Check its own setup instructions.
