What it does

  • Terminal and editor

    Native terminal with PowerShell, Bash, Zsh or Fish, tabs and split panes, plus a code editor with project-wide search, optional LSP and built-in Git.

  • Your AI model

    OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Mistral, DeepSeek, OpenRouter or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint; or local with Ollama, LM Studio or MLX. Keys go in the system keychain.

  • Agents under control

    Launch Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI or OpenCode in panes, see whether they are working, waiting or done, and get notified when they need you. The assistant's edits are approved one by one.

  • SSH, WSL, Docker and RDP

    Saved SSH connections with tunnels, WSL distributions, Docker containers with their logs, remote desktop and serial ports, each with its own terminal.

  • Share your terminal, encrypted

    Invite up to seven people to a terminal without them needing an account. Everything is end-to-end encrypted and you decide who can type.

  • MCP client

    Connect local or remote MCP servers. Each tool asks for your approval before it is used.

An assistant that asks before it acts

The assistant reads and searches your project, proposes changes as diffs you review, and runs commands only with your permission. You can open private terminals the AI cannot see.

Who it is for

  • Developers

    Terminal, editor and Git in one window, with the AI you already pay for or a local model.

  • Sysadmins

    Your servers over SSH, your containers and your WSL machines, organised and one click away.

  • Teams working with agents

    Several coding agents in view, each in its own pane, and an alert when one stops.

Our contribution to the community

Voktty is free and its source is open: you can read it, build it and propose changes. We develop it at ForgeNEX, the same team that builds our business software, and publish it under the Apache-2.0 licence.

Voktty started as a fork of Terax, by Crynta, also Apache-2.0, and is now developed independently. github.com/crynta/terax-ai
