A deeply customized fork of WezTerm, built for practical defaults on day one while keeping full Lua customization and a fast, lightweight feel. Part of a trilogy: [Kaku](https://github.com/tw93/Kaku) (ζΈγ) writes code, [Waza](https://github.com/tw93/Waza) (ζ) drills habits, [Kami](https://github.com/tw93/Kami) (η΄) ships documents. Think of them as a family: Kaku is the dad, Waza the big sister, Kami the little sister. ## Features - **Zero Config**: Defaults with JetBrains Mono, macOS font rendering, and low-res font sizing. - **Theme-Aware Experience**: Auto-switches between dark and light modes with macOS, with tuned selection colors, font weight, and practical color overrides support. - **Curated Shell Suite**: Built-in zsh plugins with optional CLI tools for prompt, diff, and navigation workflows. - **Fast & Lightweight**: 40% smaller binary, instant startup, lazy loading, stripped-down GPU-accelerated core. - **WezTerm-Compatible Config**: Use WezTerm's Lua config directly with full API compatibility and no migration. - **Polished Defaults**: Copy on select, clickable file paths, history peek from full-screen apps, pane input broadcast, and visual bell on background tab completion. ## Quick Start 1. [Download Kaku DMG](https://github.com/tw93/Kaku/releases/latest) & Drag to Applications 2. Or install with Homebrew: `brew install tw93/tap/kakuku` 3. Open Kaku. The app is notarized by Apple, so it opens without security warnings 4. On first launch, Kaku will automatically set up your shell environment ## Usage Guide | Action | Shortcut | | :--- | :--- | | New Tab | `Cmd + T` | | New Window | `Cmd + N` | | Close Tab/Pane | `Cmd + W` | | Navigate Tabs | `Cmd + Shift + [` / `]` or `Cmd + 1β9` | | Navigate Panes | `Cmd + Opt + Arrows` | | Split Pane Vertical | `Cmd + D` | | Split Pane Horizontal | `Cmd + Shift + D` | | Open Settings Panel | `Cmd + ,` | | AI Panel | `Cmd + Shift + A` | | AI Chat | `Cmd + L` | | Apply AI Suggestion | `Cmd + Shift + E` | | Open Lazygit | `Cmd + Shift + G` | | Yazi File Manager | `Cmd + Shift + Y` or `y` | | Clear Screen | `Cmd + K` | Full keybinding reference: [docs/keybindings.md](docs/keybindings.md) ## Kaku AI Kaku has a built-in assistant with two modes and a settings page for AI coding tools. - **Error recovery**: When a command fails, Kaku automatically suggests a fix. Press `Cmd + Shift + E` to apply. - **Natural language to command**: Type `# <description>` at the prompt and press Enter. Kaku sends the query to the LLM and injects the resulting command back into the prompt, ready to review and run. - **AI Tools Config**: Manage settings for Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Copilot CLI, Kimi Code, and more. ### Assistant Setup Run `kaku ai` to configure the assistant fields directly: | Field | Use | | :--- | :--- | | Auth Type | API key or Codex CLI login | | Simple Model | L
