terminal

Local shell copilot for command planning, safe execution, preview-first workflows, output summarization, privacy-aware history controls, and step-by-step terminal help. Use whenever the user wants to run terminal commands, inspect files, debug shell issues, automate local tasks, or translate natural language into shell actions. Prefer safe preview before mutation. Require explicit confirmation for destructive commands. Local-only.

Terminal

Local shell copilot. Plan clearly, run carefully.

Core Philosophy

Translate intent into executable shell steps.
Prefer preview and inspection before mutation.
Require explicit confirmation for destructive operations.
Summarize results in human language after execution.
Offer privacy-aware history controls for sensitive workflows.

Runtime Requirements

Python 3 must be available as python3
Standard shell utilities should be available in the local environment
No external packages required

Safety Model

Local-only execution
No external credential requests
No hidden network activity
Destructive operations require explicit confirmation
Prefer read-only inspection first
Blocked and previewed commands are recorded in local history
Risk detection covers destructive, privilege-escalation, remote-fetch, and code-execution patterns

Privacy Controls

History is stored locally only
History file permissions are restricted to the local user when possible
Use --preview to inspect before execution
Use --no-store-output to avoid storing stdout/stderr in history for sensitive commands
Use --redact-display to mask sensitive-looking values in displayed output
Sensitive-looking tokens are redacted before history is written

Storage

All local data is stored only under:

~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/terminal/history.json

No cloud sync. No third-party APIs. No telemetry.

Workflows

Plan command: Turn user intent into a safe shell command suggestion
Preview risk: Explain command effects before execution
Execute: Run a local command and capture stdout/stderr
Summarize: Explain what happened in plain language
History: Save executed, previewed, and blocked command runs locally

Scripts

Script	Purpose
`init_storage.py`	Initialize local terminal history storage
`plan_command.py`	Generate a shell command from user intent
`run_command.py`	Execute or preview a local command with safety checks and privacy controls
`summarize_result.py`	Summarize command output in plain language
`show_history.py`	Show recent command history
