First year Finance PhD student at Columbia. Interested in AI applications in finance.
Tachyon is a fork of Warp. Its goal is to rip out a lot of the built in agent, AI, account, billing, and related features in Warp and turn it into just a super clean terminal base I can both use and also hack on for other projects.
This is a work in progress. I am still selectively adding features and continuing to strip out more stuff. Mac only for now; I will add Windows and Linux support back in future.
A feature I did add is support for rich text input into Claude Code and Codex. Ctrl-G toggles an overlay that swaps the input for Claude Code and Codex with one you can nicely copy and paste in and click around in. This drove me crazy using CC and CX in TUI.
I like using Tachyon in Zen mode, no tabs, just panes, and absolutely no header chrome whatsoever, not even traffic lights in the top left. I made this an option you can toggle in case you prefer a more normal UX.
One big thing I want to try to do eventually is have Tachyon render commands like ls as structured outputs in HTML, like widgets that can reflow nicely when resized and generally behave like you expect modern cards to behave. That violates a huge idea of everything being text for shells, and is turning out to be a lot harder to implement than I thought it would be, so that is a future aspiration for now.
