Farming CRT

Farming CRT is a keyboard-first second interface for scanning Agents, Chat, Terminal, Search, and History. It connects to the same backend as Farming Code and does not create another set of Sessions.

Main control screen

The main screen arranges Projects and Agent states into a compact control room. Scan running state, unread activity, and current tasks before opening an Agent.

Chat

Agents with structured Chat show messages, progress, and a Composer while retaining keyboard-first navigation.

Terminal

Terminal connects to the same native PTY Session for complete output and native coding CLI interaction.

Token usage

The Token view summarizes current Provider activity and historical usage to reveal active periods, trends, and unusual peaks.

When CRT fits

Use CRT when live output, task state, and fast keyboard switching are the main signals. Return to Farming Code to browse or edit Project files.

Open CRT

In Farming Code, open Settings → Interface and select Farming CRT. Code and CRT store interface preferences separately. Switching does not stop Agents or change their Project, Provider, or permissions.
