tterm is a macOS cockpit for working with Claude Code. Every project is a row of explorer, Claude, and file viewer. Stack as many as you're juggling. A real Chromium browser lives inside, and there's no editor on purpose: you review diffs hunk by hunk and commit. It even rebuilds itself. Ask the Claude pane for a feature and the running app hot-reloads with it. No account, no telemetry. Free for hobbyists, on Apple silicon.
the self-rebuilding part is the thing I'd want to stress test before trusting it daily. if you ask the Claude pane for a feature and the hot-reload lands on something broken, does the app roll back to the last working build automatically, or are you stuck debugging your own cockpit while it's down? that failure mode seems like the actual risk of a tool that rewrites itself while you're using it.
The diff-by-hunk flow is genuinely clever, I'd love a small "drafted explanation" panel where I can leave notes for my future self before committing. Some commits have weird "why I did this" context that gets lost once the message is final, and writing it inline in the commit box always feels rushed. A scratchpad that auto-attaches to the commit hash would fit right in with the project-row layout you already have.
Combining terminal, browser, and Claude Code in one window sounds like it could cut a lot of context-switching. How does it handle screen real estate when all three are active — tabs, splits, or something else?
Putting terminal, browser, and Claude Code in one place makes sense if the handoffs stay visible. For shipping work, the valuable layer is checkpoints: what changed, what was verified, what failed, and where the human needs to make the next call.
as a real Chromium browser is bundled in, would love to see a way to save reusable diff-view layouts or presets per project type, makes flipping between code reviews and Claude chats way faster
So grateful to everyone supporting this launch :). Totally unexpected for me that people would see this (and potentially like this, it's something I made for myself!
