Integration idea: WinkTerm remote terminal with atomic exec + SSE for Codex workflows
Resolved 💬 1 comment Opened May 27, 2026 by Cznorth Closed May 27, 2026
Summary
WinkTerm is an open-source, self-hosted terminal where AI shares the same PTY session as the user — not a separate chat panel.
Why it may be relevant here
- Human-in-the-loop terminal ops: AI writes commands to the shell input line; the user presses Enter, edits, or cancels
- In-terminal chat: type
#at the prompt (no alt-tab to a sidecar) - HTTP Agent API designed for coding agents: atomic exec with real
exit_code, SSE streaming, server-side grep, one-shot SSH run - Installable skill:
curl http://<host>:8000/api/agent/skill.md— drop into Cursor / Claude Code / Continue skills directory - BYO LLM via OpenAI-compatible endpoints; Docker one-liner deploy
Demo
Possible integration ideas
- Document WinkTerm as a remote terminal backend for agents that need shared PTY + SSH access
- Ship or link the installable skill in docs/examples
- Support driving WinkTerm sessions via existing agent workflows
Happy to help with a PR or integration testing.
