Terminactory drops terminal factory with agent hooks

As autonomous coding agents push task runtimes from seconds to minutes, developer downtime is becoming an unexpected UX frontier. Terminactory tackles the idle-wait problem by embedding companion entertainment directly into the terminal split rather than pushing developers out to distracting browser tabs.

• –Native integration hooks for Claude Code and a shell-level `tfac msg` command allow autonomous agents to ping the game with progress logs and permission requests without breaking immersion.
• –Implemented in Rust with Ratatui, featuring deterministic 60-Hz simulation loops, automatic compact UI switching for split panes, and zero-token markdown message delivery.
• –Includes "termweb", an in-game terminal browser with multi-tab browsing, tech trees, production analytics, and embedded world lore.
• –Reflects an emerging pattern of developers using frontier coding models like Claude Sonnet to rapidly build full-featured terminal applications tailored to AI-assisted workflows.
