Troubleshoot Terminal Integration

Use these checks when Reasoning cannot read terminal content or a terminal action is unavailable.

Confirm the terminal

Open a VS Code integrated terminal in the intended project or Agent Manager worktree. Run a harmless command and confirm that its output is visible.

Then retry AI Cockpit: Add Terminal Content to Context or @terminal from Chat.

Check shell integration

Review the active VS Code terminal profile and VS Code's shell integration state. Restart the terminal after changing its profile or shell configuration.

Agent Manager terminals use the selected worktree. Confirm its working directory before retrying a command or attaching output.

Collect a safe error

Open the Reasoning output channel and capture only the relevant, redacted error. Remove command output that contains credentials, environment values, customer data, or unrelated project information.
