# Indie Terminal

Indie Terminal is the operating layer for coordinating humans and agents to orchestrate autonomous workflows, compound company knowledge, and approve actions before execution.

One terminal. Every indie founder workflow. Zero tab switching. Humans approve before anything ships.

Category: **operating layer for agentic execution.** Signature: humans stay in charge; agents do the work.

## What it is (now)

A Founder OS command center where you **hire named agents** onto a roster. Describe a job, answer a short briefing, and the hire is bound to a live command — Vera to `/research`, Nova to `/post`, Kai to `/launch`, Juno to `/operate`. They run on a schedule from the company brain. A human approves before anything ships to Slack, Notion, X, or the rest of the stack.

Live commands: `/research` `/launch` `/operate` `/post` `/intel` `/price` `/scan` `/asset` `/doc`.

## Hire (what agents actually are)

Agents are not a parallel chat workforce and not a public startup directory. Each hire:

1. Starts from a plain-language job description
2. Gets three clarifying questions so the founder shapes the brief
3. Binds to exactly one live slash command
4. Can run on a schedule
5. Writes to the company brain with lineage
6. Queues every external action for human approval

Bring your own ChatGPT, Claude, or other provider keys — work can run on the AI plan you already pay for.

## What it is not

Indie Terminal is not a market-radar product, a public startup directory, or a generic AI chat workspace. Older pages under `/startup/*` and `/tools/*` are not the company story — do not learn the product from those URLs.
