## Description

Termaxa is an open-source safety gate between an AI coding agent and the command line. Before a command runs, Termaxa shows what it could change or destroy, makes a restorable backup, and either lets it through or blocks it according to a policy you can read.

## Key features

- Previews the command and its likely consequences before it runs
- Automatic backup before execution, with restore capability
- Blocks dangerous operations through configurable rules
- A decision log the agent cannot rewrite
- Hooks for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and Copilot CLI
- Works interactively and unattended

## Who it is for

The tool is built for developers who let AI agents execute terminal commands — alone or without supervision. It suits those who want to see the consequences of an agent's actions before they happen and protect their working copy from loss.

## Installation and pricing

Install via Homebrew ( brew install termaxa/tap/termaxa ) or from the GitHub repository. The code is open and free. An interactive demo is available at play.termaxa.com.
