Terminal Optimization

Configure terminal environment for effective Claude Code usage.

Ghostty Configuration

Ghostty works well with Claude Code. Key settings:

# ~/.config/ghostty/config
font-family = JetBrains Mono
font-size = 14
window-padding-x = 10
window-padding-y = 10
cursor-style = bar
shell-integration = detect

See ghostty-config.md for full config.

Statusline

Display context usage and git info in shell prompt. Useful for:

• Tracking Claude Code context consumption
• Current git branch/status at a glance
• Session identification

See statusline-setup.md for starship/oh-my-zsh configs.

Voice Dictation

macOS: Press fn key twice to toggle dictation. Tips:

• Speak punctuation explicitly ("comma", "period", "new line")
• Pause briefly before/after commands
• Works in any text field including terminal

See voice-dictation.md for detailed tips.

Tab Naming

Name terminal tabs by project/task:

# Set tab title (most terminals)
echo -ne "\033]0;my-project\007"

# Or use terminal-specific shortcuts
# Ghostty: Cmd+Shift+I
# iTerm2: Cmd+I

tmux for Worktrees

Use tmux sessions per git worktree:

# Create session for worktree
tmux new-session -s feature-branch -c ~/repos/project-feature

# Attach to existing
tmux attach -t feature-branch

Each worktree gets isolated Claude Code context.
