Termexo

Termexo is a Windows desktop workspace for running and monitoring Claude Code, Codex CLI, and shell sessions in one project-based window. It helps developers track agent status, resume prior sessions, arrange terminals, and switch Claude Code model profiles locally without an account.

Termexo

A local workspace for coding agents

Termexo is a Windows desktop workspace for running and monitoring multiple coding-agent terminals from one window. It is designed for workflows that use Claude Code, Codex CLI, and shell sessions in parallel, combining their views into project-based workspaces rather than requiring separate terminal windows.

The application keeps sessions, terminal state, project layouts, and model selections on the local computer. Users can arrange visible terminals in a grid, identify agents that need input or approval, search prior sessions, and resume them through the coding CLIs' own commands. Termexo also provides model profiles for routing Claude Code to supported providers or compatible endpoints.

The homepage describes the current product as local-first and account-free. It identifies remote approval, quota visibility, CLI installation and upgrades, separate logins, proxy configuration, and agent-to-agent handoffs as planned roadmap items rather than current capabilities.

Core features

Multi-agent workspace

Open multiple Claude Code, Codex CLI, and shell terminals in one window, keep sessions alive in tabs, and arrange visible terminals in a grid from 1 to 6 rows and columns. Workspace layouts are remembered per project.

Attention notifications

See whether an agent is working, waiting for input, awaiting approval, finished, or failed across open projects. Taskbar flashes, system notifications, and persistent in-app banners highlight sessions that need attention.

Session search and resume

Search saved Claude Code and Codex sessions across projects by name, path, branch, or model, then reopen them using the CLIs' native resume commands so their existing context returns.

Model routing

Create model profiles for Claude Code and switch providers without reinstalling the CLI or editing configuration files manually. Supported examples include Anthropic, DeepSeek, MiniMax, GLM, and compatible endpoints.

Persistent local workspaces

Keep project folders, open terminals, grid layouts, selected models, and related workspace state on the local machine so a workspace can be reopened with its prior setup.

Interface languages

Follow the Windows language automatically or choose from Chinese, English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, and Korean.

Practical use cases

  • Compare and supervise agents

    Keep Claude Code, Codex CLI, and shell sessions visible together while working on the same project or related tasks. The grid lets users choose which terminals to watch without closing the others.

  • Manage multiple projects

    Run several projects in parallel and rely on project-specific layouts and saved terminal state when switching between them. This suits developers who move frequently between repositories or workspaces.

  • Resume interrupted work

    Search for a previous session using its project, path, branch, or model, then continue from the CLI's stored context instead of reconstructing the task in a new terminal.

  • Test model providers

    Use a different provider for a Claude Code task when testing model behavior or cost tradeoffs, while preserving the same CLI workflow and switching profiles from the application.

  • Handle asynchronous approvals

    Monitor long-running agent tasks while working elsewhere on the desktop. Persistent notifications and taskbar signals make approval or input requests visible even when another terminal or project is active.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Runs multiple coding-agent and shell terminals in one project-based window.
  • Provides persistent workspaces and native session resume for Claude Code and Codex CLI.
  • Highlights approval and input requests across projects with taskbar, notification, and in-app signals.
  • Supports model profiles for routing Claude Code to several providers or compatible endpoints.
  • Keeps project state and session files local, with API keys stored through Windows Credential Manager.

Cons

  • The documented current platform is Windows 10 and Windows 11; support for macOS or Linux is not stated.
  • The homepage provides only partial details about supported agents and environments beyond Claude Code and Codex CLI.
  • Quota visibility, phone-based approval, remote access, CLI installation, separate logins, and agent handoffs are listed as planned rather than current features.

FAQ

What platforms does Termexo support?

Termexo runs on Windows 10 and Windows 11. The homepage presents an installer and an npm command, `npx termexo@latest`, for starting the application.

Does Termexo require an account or cloud connection?

No account is required. Termexo is described as a local application with no cloud service or server to log into, and its project paths, sessions, terminal state, and settings remain on the computer.

Which coding agents and terminals does Termexo support?

The homepage specifically mentions Claude Code and Codex CLI. Termexo displays their sessions in one window, keeps sessions alive in tabs, and can resume saved sessions through the CLIs' own `claude --resume` and `codex resume` commands.

Can users switch models without changing the CLI?

Termexo can save model profiles for Claude Code and route the CLI to Anthropic, DeepSeek, MiniMax, GLM, or another compatible endpoint. The source does not provide a complete compatibility list for other agents or environments.

How does Termexo handle session files and API keys?

Termexo reads Claude Code and Codex session files without editing or deleting them, and stores API keys in Windows Credential Manager rather than plain-text configuration files. The homepage does not provide broader security or team-administration details.
