Welcome to WinkTerm!

What is WinkTerm?

WinkTerm is an open-source AI terminal where the AI types commands directly into your shell's input line — not just suggests them. It shares your PTY session so you and the AI work in the same terminal process.

Key Features

• Shared PTY Session — AI and user operate in the same terminal. No copy-paste.
• In-Terminal Chat — Type # followed by your question, right at your prompt.
• SSH Remote Connections — Remote server management with file transfer.
• Multi-Model Support — BYO LLM (OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama, any OpenAI-compatible).
• Docker & Desktop — docker compose up or download the desktop app.

Quick Start

docker run -p 3000:3000 -p 8000:8000 -e ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=*** ghcr.io/cznorth/winkterm:latest

Then open http://localhost:3000
