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.

stackable project rows with the explorer, Claude, and diff viewer side by side genuinely sped up how I review changes across multiple repos at once. Asking Claude for a tweak and watching the app hot-reload with it still feels a bit like magic.
Love the no-editor, diff hunk by hunk flow, that's a clever take on reviewing AI generated code. One thing I'd find useful is a way to save session state per project so when you reopen a workspace the explorer tree, open files, and even scroll position come back exactly where you left them. Right now it sounds like every launch starts from scratch and that would save a lot of clicking.

@aysunasralq0vp this (minus the scroll position) is the default at present! will add the missing piece :)

The self-rebuilding feature is genuinely wild. One thing I'd love: a way to bookmark or save the exact stack layout across projects so I can pick up right where I left off when I jump back in.

@asiyekmeogipbc multiple people have had this suggestion, will definitely be adding it in! Thanks for the feedback :)

the self-rebuilding feature is wild, asked the claude pane for a dark mode toggle and watched it hot reload right in front of me. also appreciate the no-account stance, just downloaded and started using it.
The layout is genuinely nice, basically treating each project like a little row you can stack while juggling multiple. Kind of wild that you can ask Claude in the pane to add something and the app just rebuilds itself around you.
@tanay good to know a follow-up prompt usually gets you unstuck. checkpointing would be a nice safety net for the cases where the rebuild goes sideways in a way that's hard to describe back to the model though - worth adding even as a manual 'save state' button before you ask it to touch the cockpit itself.

@omri_ben_shoham1 Sounds like a quick win, thanks for the suggestion!

Hi Everyone!
Super excited to announce some big updates for tterm this week!
- Point at any part of the UI to rebuild/edit that component (⌘⇧E) - A sidebar assistant that does coding & browser work (⌘⇧J) - An improved, faster browser agent for more complex tasks - Saved layouts, with per-project-type presets
- Atomic state writes and checkpointing for tasks!

@ayekapszm5vk my feelings exactly!

@melahatdnda0pp haha thank you!
