gpty features functions such as tiled pane layouts for terminals, code editors, and file trees, a concept capture engine, and control interfaces via JSON-RPC and MCP (Model Context Protocol). This allows AI agents and automation tools to create panes, inject text, and observe terminal output without scraping the TUI (Text User Interface).
gpty also operates as an MCP server, enabling AI agents and coding assistance tools to control the workspace. Additionally, it includes a feature to generate MCP tool manifests without using a GUI. Standalone binaries for Linux, macOS, and Windows are available in the GitHub Releases.
