Terminals

Native shell access — standalone or wired into your workflows.

Open a real terminal inside Circuitry and run commands the way you would in any shell. Use it on its own as an interactive session, or drop a Terminal node into a workflow to automate commands as part of a pipeline.

Interactive terminals

  • Real shell — bash, zsh, PowerShell, or cmd, running natively via Circuitry Server.
  • Persistent sessions that survive page reloads.
  • Command history with arrow-key navigation.
  • Multiple terminals open side by side.

Run git operations, manage files, start dev servers, kick off builds, or deploy — without leaving the studio.

Terminal nodes in workflows

A Terminal node runs a command as a step in a workflow. Combine it with other nodes to:

  • run a build or test command and branch on the result,
  • shell out to a CLI an agent can't reach directly,
  • automate deployments triggered by a webhook.

On iPad

Drive a terminal on your desktop from an iPad — the command runs on your main machine over Circuitry Server while you watch the output on the tablet. See iPad, powered by your machine.

Requirements

Native shell access needs a connected Circuitry Server (or the desktop app). The server is what executes commands on the host machine.
