…dicator Sets the terminal title via OSC 0 escape sequence (\x1b]0;...\x07): ⚕ Hermes — session name (named session, idle) ⚕ Hermes ⏳ (agent thinking) ⚕ Hermes (unnamed session) Symbol comes from the active skin's response_label (⚕ default, ⚔ Ares, etc.) so it adapts to the current theme. Updated at: - run() startup - _preload_resumed_session() when a titled session is resumed - /title command when a title is set or committed from pending - process_loop when agent starts (thinking=True) and finishes Skipped when stdout is not a TTY, TERM=dumb, or NO_COLOR is set.
Users on tmux/screen, or whose iTerm2 profile appends the job name
(Python) to the tab title, can now disable OSC title sequences:
display:
terminal_title: false
Default: true (enabled).

Thanks for the contribution, @iRonin! Closing this as a duplicate of #5318 (by @iRonin), which targets the same fix/feature. We're consolidating on that PR for review. If you want to help push it over the line, please jump in there — or if you think your approach is better for a specific reason that isn't covered in the other PR, let us know and we can reopen. |
