Terminal Shortcuts & Tips

The agent terminal supports keyboard shortcuts, tab completion, and inline help to speed up command entry. This page documents everything available.

Keyboard Shortcuts

Shortcut Action
↑ / ↓ Navigate command history (previous / next)
Tab Autocomplete the current command name or parameter
Enter Submit the current command
Ctrl + C Clear the current input line

Tab Completion

Pressing Tab completes command names and parameter names based on what you have typed so far.

  • Command names - type the first few characters and press Tab to complete or cycle through matching commands.
  • Parameter names - after entering a command name and --, press Tab to see available parameters for that command.

Inline Help Panel

As you type a command, a help panel appears automatically on the right side of the terminal. It shows:

  • The command's purpose
  • All available parameters with their descriptions
  • Parameter types and whether they are required

The panel updates live as you type, so you can reference it without leaving the input field.

Command History

Every command you submit is saved to the session history. Use ↑ and ↓ to scroll through previous commands. History persists within the current session.

Command Aliases

Frequently used commands can be saved as aliases and run with a short name. Aliases are managed in the Commands & Aliases page of the GUI.

See Commands & Aliases for details on creating and managing aliases.

Header Bar

The header bar above the input displays real-time information about the connected agent:

Tips

  • Use jobs to list any commands running in the background (e.g. socks5, screen-tracker).
  • Use ps output as a reference when running token-steal, inject, or kill - copy the PID directly from the terminal.
  • Long-running background tasks do not block the terminal - submit the next command immediately after.
