coding-agent

You can run coding agents in the background by using PTY-enabled interactive sessions within a specified workdir. This approach returns a session ID, allowing you to automate repetitive coding tasks and monitor progress without keeping the terminal open.

A PTY, or pseudo-terminal, is required to ensure proper terminal behavior and color output during background execution. It allows programmatic control of interactive CLIs like OpenCode or Pi Coding Agent, maintaining the expected terminal environment for automated workflows.

Background orchestration works specifically with PTY-enabled interactive CLIs such as Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, and Pi Coding Agent. It requires a target workdir to apply iterative coding tasks and optional background sessions for monitoring.

You manage background coding agent sessions by specifying a target workdir and enabling optional background mode. This process returns a unique session ID that you can use to monitor the progress of your automated iterative coding tasks within focused workspaces.

The best way to automate repetitive coding tasks is through background programmatic control of coding agents using a PTY. This enables remote prompts and automation workflows within focused workspaces, returning session IDs for continuous monitoring.

Yes, you can use background PTY-enabled sessions for remote prompts within focused workspaces. By specifying a target workdir, you can programmatically orchestrate coding agents and apply iterative coding tasks across your automation workflows.
