DAEMON MODE

Persistent sessions, crash recovery, reconnect anytime.

Sessions Persist

ori-term separates your shell sessions from the window. A background process keeps your shells running even when you close the window. Reopen ori-term and pick up exactly where you left off -- scrollback, working directories, and all.

A single-process mode is available as a fallback for sandboxed environments.

Auto-Save

Layout saved automatically -- Window positions, tabs, pane layout, and working directories are saved every 30 seconds
Crash recovery -- If anything goes wrong, ori-term detects it on next launch and offers to restore your session
Safe writes -- Session files are written safely to prevent corruption from unexpected shutdowns

Smart Output Handling

ori-term prioritizes responsiveness where it matters:

The pane you are working in updates instantly
Visible but unfocused panes update at display refresh rate
Background panes update less frequently to save resources

Remote Shells

SSH -- Open remote shells via SSH with agent forwarding and keepalive
WSL -- Windows Subsystem for Linux integration with auto-detection
Run local and remote shells side by side in the same window
