AI Terminal

What It Is

Aether Desktop includes AetherTerm — an AI-assisted terminal you can use alongside or instead of the built-in VS Code terminal.

Type in natural language and get the right command:

> "find all Python files modified this week"
→ find . -name "*.py" -mtime -7

> "show disk usage sorted by size"
→ du -sh * | sort -rh | head -20

> "what does xargs do?"
→ (explains with examples)

Launch

# Open AetherTerm
aether-desktop launch terminal

Or access it from within the IDE through the AetherTerm tab.

Safety Features

AetherTerm flags risky commands before execution — accidental rm -rf, credential leaks, and other dangerous patterns are caught in real-time.

Stop

Close the window, or:

aether-desktop stop terminal
