Upivia Terminal · one command

The governed
agent terminal.

A full-screen terminal built on Textual. Chat with Yupi, watch agents delegate work, and edit files on your machine — every action metered, policy-checked, and audited.

Runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows (WSL). Requires Python 3.10+. Install in one line.

Everything, in your terminal.

Streaming chat

Full-screen Textual TUI with live token streaming and a command palette.

Local file tools

Read, write, edit, search, and run files on your machine — governed and audited.

Syntax-highlighted diffs

OpenCode-style edit diffs so you see exactly what changed before it lands.

Multi-agent delegation

Watch agents hand work to each other in a live Team panel with per-agent budgets.

Realtime session sync

Web ↔ terminal sessions stay in lockstep; pick up where you left off anywhere.

Background device mode

Keep this machine online so the web app can edit its files remotely.

Quick start

01

Install

One line with uv (or pipx).

uv tool install upivia-tui
02

Authenticate

Enter your platform URL and PAT.

upivia-tui init
03

Launch

Open the full-screen terminal.

upivia-tui

You'll need a Personal Access Token from Settings → Access Tokens. Prefer to stay online as a device? Run upivia-tui --background so the web app can edit files on this machine.
