intelligent-terminal

Intelligent-terminal is presented as a fork of Windows Terminal that adds native agent integration directly into the command‑line interface. The brief description positions it as a tool for developers who want to run agents without leaving their terminal session.

The terminal replacement builds on the familiar Windows Terminal experience, so you can expect the same tabbed layout, support for multiple shells, and customizable settings that you already know. What distinguishes it is the inclusion of an agent framework that is accessible from within the terminal itself. This means you can invoke agent‑based workflows, such as automated code fixes or cloud‑side operations, without opening a separate UI. The integration is described as “native,” implying that the agents run in the same process space as the terminal rather than through external scripts.

The target audience appears to be developers who work on Windows and use command‑line tools regularly. If you already rely on Windows Terminal for PowerShell, cmd, or WSL sessions, you can adopt intelligent‑terminal to add agent capabilities without changing your workflow. The tool is likely installed as a replacement for the standard terminal executable, after which you would launch it as you would any other terminal. From there, commands that invoke agents can be entered directly, and the output is displayed alongside your regular shell output.

Because the source is a fork, you can expect the same extensibility points, settings JSON, custom key bindings, and support for third‑party extensions, while also gaining the ability to call agents that are part of Microsoft's broader developer ecosystem. The documentation on the Microsoft Dev Blogs site does not list specific agent commands, limits, or pricing, so you will need to refer to the project's repository or accompanying guides for detailed usage instructions.
