Even G2 Terminal shows live AI coding session status on Even Realities G2 glasses, lets you approve actions, and send brief guidance from a connected host machine.

Even G2 Terminal

What is Even G2 Terminal?

Even G2 Terminal is a terminal-mode workflow for Even Realities G2 glasses that shows live AI coding session status on the glasses while the agent runs on a host machine. It is designed to let developers monitor active sessions, approve actions, and send brief guidance without returning to their laptop.

The product pairs the Even Realities app on a phone with a CLI-based host process. Once connected, the glasses show whether sessions are running, blocked, or waiting for input, so the wearer can stay aware of agent activity while stepping away from the computer.

Key Features

  • Live session status on the glasses: shows whether an agent run is active, blocked, or waiting for input, so you can check progress without opening another screen.
  • Action approval on-device: simple actions can be approved with a tap on the ring, keeping routine confirmations off the laptop.
  • Tap-and-hold guidance: a longer press lets you record a quick voice instruction when the agent needs more context.
  • Host-based CLI setup: installs with a single npm command and runs a process on the host machine to stream session information.
  • Phone pairing through the Even Realities app: Terminal Mode is enabled in the app, then the host is paired by scanning the QR code printed by the CLI.
  • Support for multiple sessions: the interface is intended to keep track of more than one running session at once.

How to Use Even G2 Terminal

Install the host package with npm, choose an agent provider with --provider, and keep the server process running on the machine where your coding agent works. Open the Even Realities app on your phone, enable Terminal Mode in Settings, and scan the QR code shown by the CLI to pair the host.

After pairing, the session status appears on Even G2 while the agent runs. You can approve simple actions with a ring tap or tap and hold to leave a short voice instruction when the agent needs additional guidance.

Use Cases

  • Monitoring an AI coding session while away from the desk, such as during a coffee run, walk, or workout.
  • Reviewing whether a session is running, blocked, or waiting for input across multiple tasks without switching back and forth between windows.
  • Approving routine agent actions from the glasses instead of returning to the laptop for every confirmation.
  • Giving short voice guidance to a live session when the agent reaches a step that needs human direction.
  • Keeping up with ongoing coding work from a mobile setup where the laptop is not in front of you.

FAQ

  • What does Terminal Mode run on? It runs as a host process on the machine where the coding agent is working and streams status to Even G2.
  • How do I connect it? Install the package, enable Terminal Mode in the Even Realities app, then scan the QR code printed by the CLI.
  • Can I approve actions from the glasses? Yes. The page says simple actions can be approved with a ring tap, and tap-and-hold can be used to provide a short voice instruction.
  • Does it show more than one session? The source says it can show what is running, blocked, or waiting for input across multiple sessions.
  • Is there an advanced setup? The page mentions advanced setup for reaching the host from outside the local network, but does not describe the details.

Alternatives

  • Laptop-only agent workflows: keep the coding agent entirely on the computer and inspect status directly in the terminal or editor.
  • Mobile companion apps: use a phone app to check session status and interact with the agent when you are away from your desk.
  • Desktop dashboards for agent monitoring: view running tasks and approvals in a separate desktop UI rather than on wearable hardware.
  • Manual terminal supervision: manage the agent directly in the terminal without a glasses-based display or ring-based approvals.
