HUD is a new open-source terminal UI designed to provide a more streamlined interface for interacting with coding agents like ClaudeCode, Codex, and OpenCode. It offers a compact heads-up display that shows agent activity and status without excessive scrolling. Users can seamlessly switch between the HUD and the full terminal UI of their chosen agent, ensuring no session data is lost. The tool is installed via npm and requires Node.js version 18 or higher, along with one of the supported coding agents configured on the system's PATH. AI
