Overview

Gemini CLI runs where developers already work: the terminal. Zentty keeps it there and makes the long-running state easier to see.

How Zentty helps

Any pane

Launch Gemini CLI in any pane.

Grouped work

Keep Gemini work grouped with related shells and logs.

Agent state

Track whether the agent is running, idle, or waiting.

Mac-native flow

Use native Mac navigation and notifications around the CLI.

Workflow

  1. Create a worklane for the task.
  2. Start `gemini` in one pane.
  3. Use another pane for the repo, tests, or docs.
  4. Return when the agent state changes.

Not a replacement

Zentty does not replace Gemini CLI

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

Common questions

Does Zentty need Gemini-specific configuration?

No. Gemini CLI runs in a normal pane. Zentty adds the surrounding terminal workflow.

Can Gemini CLI share a worklane with other agents?

Yes. A worklane can hold any mix of shells and agent CLIs.
