What is Terminal Mac?
A separate macOS desktop for computer-use agents, viewed and controlled from a terminal. terminal-mac is an early release candidate for Apple silicon. Apple Virtualization runs a real macOS guest. A bundled helper inside that guest captures its screen and posts input events. A terminal viewer streams that screen using Kitty or iTerm2 graphics. Agent commands use the same helper without moving the physical Mac's pointer or changing its clipboard.
