Each agent's own CLI runs in a real terminal pane. MXterm Pro does not install them: the CLI has to be on your machine.

  • Claude Code
  • Codex
  • Gemini CLI
  • GitHub Copilot
  • Cursor Agent
  • OpenCode
  • Qwen Code
  • Amp
  • Antigravity

Inside the workspace

The tools you reach for every day.

Each surface is built around a real workflow, from an SSH file browser to several coding agents working side by side.

Control Room

Run several coding agents in one Control Room.

Bring Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI or Grok into separate panes, watch their state, and optionally give each agent its own Git worktree. Control Room is also known as War Room.

Explore Control Room

SSH & SFTP

A remote file browser that feels at home beside your terminal.

Save SSH hosts, browse remote folders, search files, edit code in the built-in editor, and move files with upload, download and background transfers.

Explore SSH & SFTP

Real PTY panes

Real PTY panes, arranged around the work.

Split right or down, move panes between tabs, maximize the pane that matters, and keep multiple live terminal sessions visible in one workspace.

Explore the terminal workspace

Token Meter

Know where your usage stands before the next turn.

Example values. Claude plan limits are opt-in and macOS only.

Explore Token Meter

Command Recipes

Ready-made Linux commands, one shortcut away.

Press Cmd+J and search by keyword across everyday tasks such as disk, memory, ports, Docker, Nginx and logs. Recipes are fixed local commands, not AI-generated shell.

Explore Command Recipes

Remote control

Steer your agents from another machine.

Start the host server on the Mac that runs your agents, share only the panes you choose, and open them from another machine's MXterm Pro or from any browser.

  • Share one pane or a whole tab. Off by default. Free shares up to 5 panes at once.
  • View only or Control, on a timer you set.
  • Pair with a 6-character code. Revoke a device and it is cut off at once.
  • Over Tailscale or your local network, on the Free plan.

On your phone

Your agents, in your pocket.

See every agent running on your Mac and reply from anywhere. Pair once with a 6-character code or a QR scan. Until the apps are out, any browser works through the host page.

Why MXterm Pro

More than a terminal. Still focused like one.

Simple terminals leave you stitching together separate SSH managers, file tools and agent windows. MXterm Pro keeps those workflows in one native workspace without pretending to be a remote orchestration platform.

Local-first

Transcripts stay on your machine and the provider keys you add are kept in your OS keychain. License activation and anonymous usage reporting are described in the Privacy Policy.

Developer-first

Keyboard shortcuts, command recipes and app-native pane controls remain central.

What it does not do

It is not a dual-pane SFTP sync tool, a fleet manager or a voice assistant. Token Meter shows plan limits for Claude Code and Codex, and balances for the providers whose API key you add.

Get started

Up and running in three steps.

No account and no card for the Free plan.

  1. Download

    Get the .dmg for macOS or the installer for Windows from the download page.

  2. Install and open

    On macOS, drag MXterm Pro to Applications; the app is notarized by Apple. On Windows, the installer is not code-signed yet, so SmartScreen asks you to confirm on the first run.

  3. Open your first workspace

    Pick a folder, split panes and start Claude Code, Codex or Gemini CLI in them. The agent CLIs must already be installed on your machine.

FAQ

Questions developers ask before switching.

What is included in the free plan?

The core terminal, SFTP, Token Meter, local editing and Command Recipes are available from day one. Pro removes the limits on saved SSH hosts, Machines, Control Room members, paired computers and shared panes, and adds My Devices (open your other signed-in Macs with no code or password) and the Standing access password.

Is MXterm Pro a remote server control plane?

No. It is a native terminal workspace with SSH/SFTP and agent collaboration. Remote control lets you steer the panes you share from another machine; it does not manage a fleet of servers.

Does SFTP sync a local and remote folder?

No. SFTP is a single remote browser with transfers, editor, search and chmod tools.

Does MXterm Pro run on Windows?

Yes, as a Windows 10 or 11 x64 build. The installer is not code-signed yet, so SmartScreen warns on the first run. Some features are macOS only, such as Claude plan limits in the Token Meter.

Do I need to install the AI agents myself?

Yes. MXterm Pro runs each agent's own CLI in a terminal pane and does not install them. Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI and the others must already be on your machine.

Is Pro a subscription?

No. Pro is a one-time purchase from $29 for 3 devices, with a 14-day refund. Mac and Windows devices count together.

What are the Free limits for remote control?

Remote control works on the Free plan. By default Free saves 1 Machine, connects 2 computers (this one and one other) and any number of phones, shares up to 5 panes at once, and allows a temporary access password of up to 8 hours. Pro removes all of these limits and adds My Devices (open your other signed-in Macs with no code or password) and a Standing access password with no time limit; its temporary password lasts up to 7 days. The 6-character pairing code works on every plan.

Can I watch my agents from my phone?

Yes, in any browser today: start Remote Access on the computer, pair with the code and open a shared pane. A native app for Android and iPhone is in testing, and the download page lists what is ready. iPad and Apple Watch are next.

How does Control Room collaboration work?

Connected agents share room discussion. You can address everyone or a member, Probe or Execute, and export the discussion as Markdown.
