AGENTBØY

OSC 98 approval flow

Agents ask for permission with an escape sequence: OSC 98 ; prompt=… pops a retro RPG dialog with YES / NO / DIFF, git-checkpoints the pane's working directory on YES, opens the Diff Inspector on DIFF, and answers y/n back to the shell. The dialog renders on the chassis, outside PTY-paintable space — a spoofed escape sequence can't fake it. Full spec: protocol.md.

Split panes, real PTYs

Terminator-style splits — every pane runs its own PTY, with draggable dividers, search, and X11 CLIPBOARD + PRIMARY support. Undo checkpoints roll back the last AI edit with one right-click.

ACTION status LED

A traffic light on the chassis shows what's happening at a glance — and turns red when the agent prints a numbered option menu or a y/n question and waits on you.

Robo-Terminal

Brushed gunmetal with machined vent ribs on the side rails; keys carved in as backlit dark wells. Shown in the Phosphor livery.

Robo-Grip

The Mk.III: brushed metal with rubber side grips and milled steel keys. Shown in the Sapphire Ocean livery.

Fable Deck

Claude's own layout: midnight-indigo lacquer, brass inlay, twelve bigger keys in two rows and an engraved star chart over the controls.

cmatrix screensaver

F9 SAVER toggles cmatrix in an overlay on its own PTY — rendered under the active CRT tube, and the same button turns it off (any key or click exits too). Install it with sudo apt install cmatrix.

BARE mode

F8 BARE hides the whole chassis for a bare, distraction-free terminal; the same key or a right-click brings the shell back. Windows narrower than a third of the screen shed the toolbar automatically (slim shell).

Speaker & built-in tune

The round speaker by the A button is the master sound toggle: ON starts Phosphor Drift, a cozy lofi tune composed for agentboy (the speaker glows while it plays), and enables the effects — all derived from the tune itself: D-major pentatonic, soft triangle waves, plus a whisper-quiet typing tick.
