Mel – the agentic terminal
The AI terminal for teams.
Mel Terminal
A terminal worth living in.
Mel is a free terminal for Mac, Windows and Linux with structured command blocks, a fuzzy palette, splits and tabs, clickable output, and context chips that know your project. A team of AI agents is built in.
The terminal
Built for how you actually work.
Command blocks
Each command and its output is a selectable, filterable block — copy it, share it, bookmark it, or rerun it.
Command palette
A fuzzy palette for every action: splits, tabs, search, agent, workflows. Press ⌘P and go.
Splits & tabs
Split panes any direction, keep a sidebar of sessions, and drag to resize — your workspace, your way.
Clickable output
Paths and URLs in output are live — Cmd-click to open files, folders, and links instantly.
Context chips
Node, Python, Rust, Go and git chips show your project state and switch versions inline.
Built-in code review
Review diffs, comment on lines, and edit with an LSP-aware editor — without leaving the terminal.
File tree & search
A project explorer and ripgrep-powered global search, docked in the tools panel.
Mel Drive
Save workflows, prompts, notebooks, and env sets, with a team section for what your team shares and a Trash you can restore from. Open a workflow and its card docks above the input; a click puts its command in the box.
Conversations at hand
The Tools panel lists your agent conversations with a search box, a New conversation button and a green check on each one whose last request was answered. View all opens the Runs screen.

The Mel terminal is free to download, no account needed. The AI agent is free on your own provider key — 1,500 hosted-AI credits a month on Pro.
