pty-handling

What problem does it solve?

PTY Handling provides a cohesive toolkit to manage interactive terminal processes, enabling reliable spawning, I/O streaming, and environment isolation for terminal-based applications such as coding agents and REPLs.

Core Features & Use Cases

• PTY session spawning across platforms using node-pty or Python equivalents
• Shell detection and wrapping for zsh and bash to ensure proper command formatting
• Robust lifecycle management with signals and clean termination
• Fine-grained PTY dimension control and environment isolation for deterministic behavior
• Debugging of common PTY errors like EBADF, ENOENT, or zombie processes in long-running tasks

Quick Start

Launch a PTY session and interact with a shell, streaming input and output in real time.
