New for Rex testers. 👁️ Activity Mode shows you active and idling processes and agents for quick context switching, and some extra metadata. We're working our way slowly through the waitlist. Our priority is building quality software, so we're admitting testers in batches of 50 or 100 at the moment and addressing any feedback with the group before adding the next wave.

We've had this update UI in for weeks, but I still smile when I see it. We invited 350 new testers to Rex yesterday, more than the entire previous week.

I used the browser view transition api for this little detail. Hard to imagine when we had to live without this.

One of my favourite things about building Superlogical is that we all care, a disproportionate amount, about the little conveniences, performance gains and UI treats that most rational people just don’t. I'm currently working on our scrollback search UI. You basically have two common choices as a designer: a) insert a toolbar into the view or b) float a search bar over the view For terminals, any intrinsic size change causes a reflow - which is jarring for the user to see and potentially pushes offscreen something you were looking at. This means option A sucks. For option B though, the problem is that you’re potentially obscuring matched words that fall under the search UI since it floats over them. (Every app I tried makes this mistake which is kinda nuts) So what's the solution? Give our search UI a gentle nudge out the way when it's over something you're trying to see.

I used a similar technique recently to reverse engineer the beautiful tabs in OpenAI ‘s Atlas browser. Took a screen recording, had an agent describe the design, the tab metrics, the easing curves etc. Had Codex do one pass and have Claude critique it, and got this highly responsive, pretty well structured macOS component out of it

The benefits of switching between horizontal → vertical tabs are underrated. For the Superlogical multiplexer macOS client, both tab styles are great for very different working styles. For me, horizontal tabs are great for more focussed projects or tasks. I'll open a repo, spawn a few tabs with lazygit, a couple agents etc, and live in that for a while. Vertical tabs however, span sessions and even machines - much better for monitoring existing workloads, disparate agent runs and the like. Operator mode. Still quite early wip stuff but already a delight to use.

Sharing my opinionated setup for coding with agents. zellij + ghostty + codex, claude, pi & ∞ + lazygit Enough insight at a glance as to whats changing, but still surfing tokens. Inbuilt sensible keybindings and sane defaults. One command: ❯ sesh

made something I wanted for a while: a high performance custom tab/splits library in swift for native Mac apps. with support for drag/drop, CoreAnimation accelerated transitions, and more. spent a lot of time on the polish of this thing to feel snappy, but fun.

there's a lot of i love about this site, but i really enjoyed building this matrix-inspired, ascii art, interactive, poolside-logo-masked, code generating artwork. huge props to Glenn Hitchcock for his design vision here.

I love the idea of complementing the user's shell. Augmenting their experience rather than attempting to hijack it. Our latest experiment allow you to insert a path to ✨anything, anywhere✨ with instant fuzzy matching as well as traditional path navigation. As useful for your `cat` as your `claude`.

In the last 18 months or so my terminal use has exploded. From being a place where I mostly navigated the file system, ran a server and did some very light nvim use, to my entire workspace, connected to multiple machines, where I spend most of my day. This is the starting point we're using for designing the Superlogical multiplexer, and we're borrowing ideas from another app that blurs the local and remote, long lived sessions and throwaway tabs: the web browser. And the first thing I wanted to borrow: favicons, for your terminal apps. We call it the Deck icon (like a deck of cards), since it needs to represent your own layout of (potentially) multiple running processes.

It's Friday, lets talk about themes. For Superlogical we've created a suite of 41 original themes for both light and dark modes that are portable across all our clients. Themes tint not just the ANSI terminal colors, but the entire application chrome.

i think we're all really particular about our terminal environment. we're building the Superlogical clients to have beautiful defaults but also quite a few levels of customisation. this ranges from full liquid glass embrace to totally solid system palettes, through to our 41 custom themes which tint the entire application. we also have two modes of density: our "islands" for terminals (comfortable mode) and a more traditional single pixel border (compact mode).

This was a fun one to implement because I've also (afai consciously know) never seen "gradient" selections like this. The ::selection pseudo element doesn't support anything other than flat color so, on selection we sample the height the selected element is sitting at against the matching current state of the noise gradient on the right. We then relight that color down in lightness with oklab for better contrast in light/dark modes. This gets recalculated on scroll.y for a nice effect as you scroll the page up/down that makes the whole thing feel like its living the mood shift. Here's a video of this all playing out in the debug tooling we made:

Here's a little video about how we're thinking about session and tab management in the Superlogical multiplexer and some of the GUI we're experimenting with to make it a productive and intuitive space for your work. We're designing the client from the beginning to handle the modern terminal sprawl: local and remote sessions, long lived processes, agent harnesses, rich TUI apps, ephemeral processes, and everything in between.

Saturday hacktime: made a renderer for Codex pets in your terminal using kitty image protocol. I'm sure people will find an appropriate use for this technology.

I open sourced my custom tab bar and window splits library for Swift. Say hi to Bonsplit. CoreAnimation-driven animations, pretty flexible/configurable, feels right at home on the Mac and showcased in a demo app. Read the docs/see examples/get the code
