I love terminal agents, but I don't love the decades-old-looking basic markdown interface. So I made Mirafold.

Mirafold is an open source faithful browser re-skin of the terminal agent you already use (Codex, Claude Code, Gemini CLI). Nothing has changed about what your agent says or does except that now it's rendered more beautifully and with more functionality.

It runs in a shell composed of an input box and your folder tree and files ready to view on the outside, enclosing the agent's generative UI within.

If for instance a chart, table, graph, checklist or diff makes more sense as a part of its response than text, that is what you'll see! And that list is not exhaustive - Mirafold has 18 components for the model your agent runs to pick from to enhance your experience with.

Pick any of those agents and any model you have available with api keys - from the big companies or smaller ones with open models - and you can even run it with a local model and not worry about keys at all. Or use your Codex subscription if you've got one - this isn't formally allowed by OpenAI but they don't seem to have a problem with it, so Mirafold leaves that up to you.

Want to see Mirafold's generative UI on your phone and run it from anywhere? Just scan a QR code in a session and take it with you via an end-to-end encrypted relay. We have a hosted service for you at $12/month or you can host it yourself - all the code is open source.

Want to run multiple agent sessions at once? Use the Fleet View at the home screen for mission control - read the latest responses, answer permission requests, and submit your next prompt - all without having to go into each session itself.

Want to run regular interactive terminal commands without having to open a new window? Mirafold has a real PTY inside your session - use the ! prefix and now sudo, ssh, etc, will let you do more than one command at a time.

It's in public beta and things are moving fast. And right now I'm running it solo. Tell me what you like love or hate, and if you want, I will be in touch. Code is at https://github.com/mirafold/mirafold and https://github.com/mirafold-mirafold-relay. Run it: npm i -g mirafold.
