## FAQ

### What operating systems are supported?

The server works on macOS and Linux only; Windows is not supported.

### Can the agent handle interactive prompts like npm init?

Yes, it spawns processes in a PTY and renders the screen so the agent can answer prompts and pick menu items.

### How does the server handle large terminal outputs?

Screens are capped at 80,000 characters to ensure they fit within limits, and the scrollback is limited to 1,000 lines.
