Agent Console is a terminal-first desktop app that pairs coding-agent CLIs
(Claude Code, Codex) with an integrated PTY terminal, a git diff viewer,
per-turn working-tree snapshots, and per-tool approvals — so you can drive
an agent through real work without losing control. Every session is
witnessed into a hash-chained evidence ledger (Testigo) exportable as
signed proof packets verifiable in any browser. Requires the Claude Code
CLI and Node.js 20+.
