nodeterm

A node-based terminal manager — your terminals and agents on an infinite canvas.

Multiple real terminals live as draggable nodes on a single pan/zoom canvas, and every project doubles as a Trello-style board of live Claude Code sessions. Built for people with ADHD and scattered workflows: a spatial layout instead of a stack of hidden tabs.

Why nodeterm

Stacked terminal tabs hide context — you lose track of what's running where. nodeterm turns that into a map: every shell is a node you can place, group, label, and zoom into. Sessions are spatial and persistent, so your mental model stays intact across restarts. And because the app is built around a clean service seam, the same canvas runs three ways — as the desktop app for macOS and Linux, as a self-hosted browser app you reach from anywhere (Server Edition), and an iOS companion that attaches to the same live sessions.

📚 Full documentation lives at nodeterm.dev/docs — get started, concepts, agents, remote access, troubleshooting.

✨ Features

Everything is a node

Right-click the canvas to open a terminal — or an AI agent. Each runs in its own persistent tmux session, next to sticky notes (link one to feed an agent context), Monaco editors, diff views, and web/video nodes — arranged spatially, like a map. Quit the app, even restart the machine — every session comes back.

Know when an agent needs you

Hook-driven status — no output scraping: pulsing RUNNING / NEEDS YOU badges, subagent cards with live transcripts, a per-node context meter, and OS notifications. Click the ping, answer the permission prompt right in the node, and get told the moment the turn is done. On a MacBook, agents live in the notch too.

One project, two views

Every project is a canvas — and also a kanban board. Cards are your live sessions: drag them across columns while the agent keeps running, open a card into a live card modal (the real session + members, due date, priority, comments), and assign teammates. Toggle with ⌘⇧B. ▶ Watch the board video with sound

Your sessions, anywhere

Pair your phone with one QR — scan with the nodeterm iOS app — and the same live session continues in your pocket, E2E encrypted over the relay, not just your LAN. The same canvas also runs self-hosted in any browser (Server Edition).
