Feature Request
Add a terminal preview or status summary for sessions visible from the home screen sidebar, so users can monitor session activity without attaching.
Problem
During long-running agent tasks, users want to quickly check what each session is doing without having to attach to each one individually. The original version of agent-view had a terminal preview feature that was useful for this.
Proposed Solution
Add a toggleable terminal preview or status indicator to the session list/sidebar on the home screen (src/tui/routes/home.tsx). Options include:
- Minimal: A one-line status summary showing the current operation (e.g., "Searching /BUSTA/workflows for JSON")
- Full preview: A small terminal preview pane showing recent output from the selected session
The feature should be toggleable since not all users may want it, and it adds visual complexity.
Implementation Notes
- Could read recent tmux pane content via
tmux capture-pane to get the latest output
- A keybinding to toggle the preview on/off would keep the UI clean for users who don't need it
- Even a short status line extracted from the last few lines of terminal output would be valuable
