|
|
- **Sudo askpass** — Claude Code with sudo: password entered once, temporary askpass helper, auto-cleanup
|
|
- **Folder grouping** — SSH and Claude Code sessions can be grouped in folders on the sidebar
|
|
- **ctx — Context manager** — SQLite-based cross-session context database for Claude Code projects
|

|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/DexterFromLab/BTerminal.git
|
|
cd BTerminal
|
|
./install.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The installer will:
|
|
1. Install system dependencies (python3-gi, GTK3, VTE)
|
|
2. Copy files to `~/.local/share/bterminal/`
|
|
3. Create symlinks: `bterminal` and `ctx` in `~/.local/bin/`
|
|
4. Initialize context database at `~/.claude-context/context.db`
|
|
5. Add desktop entry to application menu
|
|
|
|
### Manual dependency install (Debian/Ubuntu/Pop!_OS)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo apt install python3-gi gir1.2-gtk-3.0 gir1.2-vte-2.91
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
bterminal
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Context Manager (ctx)
|
|
|
|
`ctx` is a SQLite-based tool for managing persistent context across Claude Code sessions.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ctx init myproject "Project description" /path/to/project
|
|
ctx get myproject # Load full context (shared + project)
|
|
ctx set myproject key "value" # Save a context entry
|
|
ctx shared set preferences "value" # Save shared context (available in all projects)
|
|
ctx summary myproject "What was done" # Save session summary
|
|
ctx search "query" # Full-text search across everything
|
|
ctx list # List all projects
|
|
ctx history myproject # Show session history
|
|
ctx --help # All commands
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Integration with Claude Code
|
|
|
|
Add a `CLAUDE.md` to your project root:
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
On session start, load context:
|
|
ctx get myproject
|
|
|
|
Save important discoveries: ctx set myproject <key> <value>
|
|
Before ending session: ctx summary myproject "<what was done>"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Claude Code reads `CLAUDE.md` automatically and will maintain the context database.
|
|
|
|
