About Clide
Clide is a native macOS terminal with an AI pair-developer built into the side panel. Split panes into a 6×6 grid, drag files from Finder or the screenshot HUD into the AI chat, and let the agent read your scrollback, open files in preview, or type commands into any pane it chooses — with your confirmation. Voice input, workspace memory, adaptive theming, and a zero-telemetry privacy policy. Built on SwiftTerm with AppKit + SwiftUI. No Electron. No tracking. Just a faster loop.
