An agent skill that opens an executable and its argument array in a visible host terminal window via scripts/open-terminal.js, building a shell-free launch plan that keeps argv entries separate. It supports dry-run inspection with JSON output, terminal capability detection, detached fallback, and --recover/--standalone modes for configuration or mux interference.
Reach for it when you need a command like an interactive CLI, SSH session, or dev process launched in a new terminal window with a diagnosable, actionable plan if no supported terminal is available.
Use it to
- Launch an interactive CLI or SSH session in a new terminal window
- Dry-run with --json to inspect the exact argv and terminal adapter before launching
- Detect whether a supported terminal is available on the host
- Recover from user terminal configuration or mux state with --recover or --standalone
- Start a detached WezTerm process as a fallback
