TermMate provides a consistent interface for all agents. Here are the core concepts and features you’ll use every day.

Setting the WirkingDir (CWD)

By default, the agent starts in your current workspace directory.
  • VS Code: Uses the primary folder of your active workspace.
  • Sublime Text: Uses the root directory of your project file.

Multi-Project Support

You can grant the agent access to additional directories beyond your primary workspace. This is useful for monorepos or projects with external dependencies. This is similar to “Add Directory” option in your agent CLI.

Permissions & Tool Calls

Agents are “agentic” because they use tools. Before an agent can perform a destructive action, TermMate will ask for your permission:
  • File Edits: Review a diff of the changes before they are applied.
  • Terminal Commands: See the exact command the agent wants to run.

Plan Mode

For complex tasks, we recommend enabling Plan Mode. In this mode:
  1. The agent first analyzes the task and writes a detailed plan.
  2. You review and approve the plan.
  3. The agent executes the steps one by one.
This prevents the agent from going “off the rails” on large refactors.
