✈️ Airport

Run Claude Code, Codex, Devin, Antigravity and other AI coding agents side by side — in VS Code's own terminals, across multiple workspaces in a single window — and see at a glance which ones need you.

If you juggle several AI agent terminals at once, you know the problems:

• They're all just terminal tabs. You end up alt-tabbing between them to check whether one is still thinking or has been sitting idle waiting for an answer for the last five minutes.
• You can't tell what an agent is touching. Once you're in a terminal, there's no easy way to see which files it's actually working on — just a separate file explorer or cd history to piece it together.

Airport fixes both: a sidebar tracks every terminal's status so you only switch to the ones that need you, and a Files view always shows the workspace the selected terminal's agent is operating on.

What it does

• A dedicated sidebar lists all your agent terminals in one place, each with a live status light.
• Start any agent — Claude Code, Codex, Antigravity, Devin, or a plain shell — in one click, each running in a real VS Code terminal.
• Know who needs you without checking every tab: terminals are color-coded so a blocked one stands out immediately.
• Browse each terminal's files in a lightweight panel that follows whichever terminal is selected, without touching your workspace folders — letting you open multiple workspaces inside a single VS Code window.
• Pick up where you left off — Airport offers to resume your previous terminals the next time you open the workspace.

Terminal Status

	Status	Meaning
	Needs you	The agent is blocked on a question or a permission prompt
	Working	The agent is thinking or running a tool
	Done	The agent finished its turn and is idle

Getting started

1. Install the extension and open the Airport icon in the Activity Bar.

2. Click + in the Terminals view and pick an agent to start.

   

3. Work as usual in the terminal that opens — Airport watches its output in the background and updates the status for you.

4. Click any terminal in the sidebar to jump straight to it, or use the Files view underneath to browse its folder without leaving the sidebar.

   

5. Right-click a terminal for more actions: Duplicate Terminal, Duplicate Terminal with Another AI Agent (pick a different agent to run in the copy), Rename, Open Folder in File Explorer, and Close.

   

Notifications can be turned on so you get an OS notification when a terminal needs you — toggle them from the Terminals view's toolbar or the Command Palette (Airport: Turn On/Off Notifications).

Requirements

• VS Code 1.93 or newer.
• A shell with shell integration support — bash, zsh, fish, pwsh, and cmd all work. If shell integration doesn't activate for your shell, the terminal still runs, it just won't show a status light.
• The AI coding agent(s) you want to run (Claude Code, Codex, etc.) already installed and working from your regular terminal.

Known limitations

• No built-in diff viewer — use VS Code's Source Control view for that (works when a terminal's folder is also a workspace folder).
• A terminal's VS Code tab name can't be changed after it's created, due to a VS Code API limitation; renaming a terminal in the sidebar keeps working, it just doesn't rename the underlying tab.
• After reloading the window, resumed terminals won't show a status until they produce new output.

About

Airport is a VS Code port of the Airport desktop app, rebuilt to run entirely inside VS Code's own terminals instead of a separate Electron window — so there's nothing to install beyond the extension itself, and it works the same over SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces.
