Overview

Copilot CLI brings agent work into the terminal. Zentty keeps that work visible and organized without asking you to change editors or move into a cloud workspace.

How Zentty helps

Normal CLI use

Run Copilot CLI in any Zentty pane.

Task grouping

Group agent tasks with related local shells.

Attention state

See when the pane needs human attention.

Tools unchanged

Keep your editor and git workflow unchanged.

Workflow

  1. Open a worklane for the repository.
  2. Start `copilot` in a pane.
  3. Use the other panes for verification.
  4. Let Zentty pull you back when needed.

Not a replacement

Zentty does not replace GitHub Copilot CLI

GitHub Copilot CLI remains the coding agent. Zentty is the native Mac terminal around it: real panes, worklanes, and attention state.

Common questions

Does Zentty replace GitHub Copilot?

No. Zentty is the terminal layer around the Copilot CLI.

Does Zentty need my GitHub account?

No. Authentication belongs to the Copilot CLI itself.
