Getting started#

Explore Automexia's terminal workflow with a development build. Start in a non-sensitive directory and keep your existing terminal open.

Before you launch#

Follow Installation and development setup for the current source path. The official repository owns build requirements and commands; there is no executable download offered on this website.

Record the source revision you are evaluating. Run in a desktop session without administrator rights, and review Development status first.

Your first session#

Confirm the active shell and working directory.
Run pwd or another harmless command you understand.
Open a tab for a separate task, then split a pane to keep related work visible.
Select the intended pane before typing or pasting.
Try search with a short piece of visible output.
Open the command palette to discover actions and their current bindings.
Adjust font size or appearance if needed; start with other defaults.

Your shell still owns commands, history, startup files, completion, and credentials. Automexia provides the surrounding terminal workspace.

Shortcuts and preferences#

Check the command palette and keyboard reference before relying on a shortcut. Bindings can differ from familiar shell keys and may change between development revisions.

The current source has workspace recovery for useful layouts and bounded history, but it opens fresh shells. Do not assume running jobs, remote connections, or arbitrary UI state will resume. Back up configuration before changing it or evaluating another revision.

Test the workflows you need#

Try resize, focus, paste, search, and shell integration in your own environment before relying on them. Command decorations depend on shell integration. If output or layout behaves unexpectedly, simplify the workspace and prepare a small reproduction.

Follow the repository's support guidance. Remove credentials, private paths, and unrelated terminal output from reports.

Read the User Guide, workspace guide, and FAQ. These pages explain the intended experience; behavior in a particular development revision may differ.
