1. This isn't a "run my prompt" tool. TerminAI maintains a persistent, live "System Spec" of your machine—your installed binaries, your paths, your shell quirks. When standard CLIs fail, it pivots and writes custom Python/JS on-the-fly to solve the problem. It doesn't just call tools; it builds the tool it needs.
2. Every action is auditable. Every thought, plan, tool call, and outcome is logged to a local JSONL file you control. When something goes wrong, you have a forensic trace of why it made that decision. That's the trust guarantee—not "just believe me," but "here's the receipt."
3. Why this has to be open source. %% And why I began developing this in December %% The CLI democratized compute. The GUI democratized access. We're now at the third shift: the OS is becoming an intelligent partner. But who owns that partner? If the "System Operator" is rented from a closed provider, you're a tenant in your own machine. TerminAI is the open-source answer. It's the bash of the Agentic Age.
