EliasOenal / term-cli
Interactive terminals for AI agents, built for what you can't --yes away. SSH+MFA, GRUB/U-Boot, debconf installers, SOL/serial consoles, fsck, cryptsetup, pdb/gdb, apt, certbot, pwsh and even Vim in tmux-backed sessions. Agent-driven, human-assisted for secrets/MFA. Single-file Python. Agent Skill. CI with 700+ tests. BSD License.
Why this job: says: agent skill; topics: agent-skills, skills, claude-code, opencode
What it does
- Explicit errors. start fails if session exists; kill fails if not exists
- Wait strategies. wait (prompt), wait-idle (output settles), wait-for (pattern)
- Human collaboration. request/request-wait + term-assist for passwords, MFA prompts, manual steps
- Locked sessions. Human controls, agent observes (start with --locked or use term-assist lock)
- Dimension preservation. Human joining doesn't resize agent's terminal
