# Agent CLI Welcome Screen — effect skill for code & terminal

> **For AI agents:** find the right skill in one call — `curl -s "https://varg.ai/how-to/api/search?q=<what the person wants>"` returns the matching how-to page and the best skills with install commands, as markdown (Russian works too). Full index: https://varg.ai/how-to/llms.txt. Every page has a markdown twin: add `.md` to its path. Before generating anything, show the person the options on the how-to page.

A coding agent's terminal welcome screen appears, a prompt types, and the agent starts working.

## What it does

Built on [Claude Code](https://remocn.dev/r/claude-code.json) by Kapish Dima (remocn), MIT. The write-up and recipes below are varg's.

Dashed welcome box with the tool name, a prompt line typing the task, then status lines and file edits streaming.

**When:** Videos about agent workflows, skills and plugins for terminal agents.

**Watch out:** Do not copy a brand's TUI pixel for pixel without permission; keep it generic or use the real recording.

**Timing:** Welcome 0.4 s, prompt typing 50–70 ms/char, status lines every 0.3 s.

**Also called:** Claude Code screen, TUI welcome, coding agent terminal

### In HyperFrames

```bash
npx hyperframes add code-snippet-apple-terminal-pro
npx hyperframes add typed-prompt
```

### In Remotion

```tsx
// npx shadcn@latest add @remocn/claude-code
// npx shadcn@latest add @remocn/opencode
```

### In CapCut

Record the real terminal agent session; cut thinking pauses; zoom on the prompt then on the result.
