What it enables: - Persistent shell sessions: keep working directory, environment variables, virtualenvs, and running processes alive across tool calls. - Long-running processes: start a dev server, watcher, or build in the background and continue working while checking logs or interacting with the process later. - Precise
Works with: Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Cline, Windsurf, VS Code
