What Is a Terminal Workspace?
A terminal workspace is a persistent terminal that keeps sessions, output, and state alive across reconnects.

A terminal workspace is a terminal you can leave and resume without losing state. It is the terminal as a durable workspace, not a disposable connection.
Direct answer
A terminal workspace keeps:
- session identity stable,
- output replay available on reconnect,
- state continuity across time.
Why it matters
Most terminals are optimized for fast sessions. A terminal workspace is optimized for continuity, which is the missing piece in long-running dev workflows.
