Terminal Presets

Launch AI coding-agent CLIs from a terminal through the Agent CLI menu. Open the terminal commands menu from the terminal-icon button in the header, alongside Signals, tmux, and Shortcuts. The menu is available in the detailed view, on terminal board tiles, and in Terminal Spotlight. CrispyVibe detects installed agent CLIs and lists them there.

Supported agents

The menu shows the agents CrispyVibe detects on your system. Each item launches its CLI:

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

CrispyVibe checks your PATH and standard install directories when the terminal view appears, then caches the results. If it finds no agents, the menu shows “No agents on PATH.”

Launching an agent

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

The launch behavior depends on the surface:

Detailed view — CrispyVibe creates a terminal tab named after the agent (for example, “Kiro” or “Claude”) and runs the command there in the active tab’s working directory.
Terminal board tile — CrispyVibe runs the command in that tile’s own session.
Terminal Spotlight — CrispyVibe runs the command in the terminal currently shown in Spotlight, whether it is a persistent tab or a temporary terminal. It does not create a new tab.

Keyboard focus moves to the launched session.

Standard or Full Trust

Choose the trust mode per agent, each time you launch. The app has no global trust setting for this menu.

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 a separate trust selection for auto-launched terminals. That selection does not apply to this menu.

Tips

Your shell resolves the command — CrispyVibe dispatches the command to 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 does not include them.
Re-detection — CrispyVibe refreshes the available agents when the terminal view appears. After installing an agent, switch away from and back to the terminal to detect it.

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 is 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.
