Microsoft releases Intelligent Terminal with native AI agent integration

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Microsoft has released an official fork of Windows Terminal, named Intelligent Terminal, which integrates native agent capabilities. This new version utilizes the Agent Client Protocol (ACP) to connect with various local AI agents, including options like Claude, Codex, Copilot CLI, and open-source models. The move is seen as a positive step by Microsoft, offering users more choice in AI integration rather than forcing a single solution. AI

IMPACT This release offers users more flexibility in integrating local AI agents with their terminal environment, potentially improving developer workflows.

RANK_REASON This is a product release from a major tech company, but it is a fork of an existing product and integrates existing AI models rather than being a novel AI model release or research.

    An official Microsoft fork of Windows Terminal with native agent integration. It uses ACP (Agent Client Protocol) to connect to the local agent, so you can use Claude, Codex, Copilot CLI or an open source option like Pi with a local LLM. Looks like MS has learnt from it's mistake…
