Environments

Terminal and editor. In your Hand’s workspace.

Your Hand works in its own workspace. With the terminal and the code editor you work right in it: the same folder, the same files, on your laptop or your phone. Just pick the way you like to work.

  • One workspace with your Hand
  • Laptop and phone
  • Keeps running
The console with the Terminal tab, connected to the workspace folder; Claude Code starts in Shell 8.
The same terminal on a phone, with an extra key bar for Esc, Tab, Ctrl and the arrow keys.
One workspace

One folder. Three ways to work.

Your Hand, the terminal, the code editor and Files all work in the same folder. Open what your Hand made straight in the editor. What you change in the terminal is ready for its next task.

Let your Hand do it

In chat, with Voice or through the AI you already use. Your Hand works in the workspace while you follow along.

/workspaceOne folder for your Hand, your terminal, your code editor and Files.

For software development

From project files to running software. With your Hand.

Give your Hand a project in its workspace and ask it to install dependencies, run a command or investigate an error. You can open the same code and terminal output to guide the next step.

Try saying
“Install the dependencies, run the project and find out why the app won't start.”

From a simple script to a development project, the terminal and code editor use the same folder as your Hand.

Terminal

Rolling up your sleeves? The terminal is ready.

A real shell in your Hand’s workspace. Run commands and start command-line tools such as Claude Code, without installing anything on your own computer.

  • Full screenMake the terminal as big as your screen when you want to focus.
On your phone too

A terminal that fits in your hand.

On your phone the terminal gets an extra key bar with Esc, Tab, Ctrl and arrow keys, plus an input field for your command. So you can drive Claude Code with your thumb.

The terminal key bar on a phone: Esc, Tab, Ctrl, arrow up, arrow down, arrow left and arrow right.
Code editor

Prefer to see what you are doing? Open the code editor.

The code editor is OpenVSCode: a version of VS Code that runs on your Hand and opens in your browser. If you already use VS Code, you will feel at home right away.
