 ```
 
-This opens the native terminal client with the same configured model, workspace, tools, streaming protocol, and session engine as the WebUI. Use `/sessions` to switch saved conversations, `/new-chat` to preserve this conversation and start another one, `/branch` to fork from a completed reply, `/context` to inspect the compacted summary and raw message suffix available to the agent, or `/diff` to review the latest turn's file changes. Type `@` to mention an installed app, configured MCP server, or saved session. While nanobot is working, `Enter` steers the current turn, `Tab` queues a visible follow-up for the next turn, and `Option+Up` on macOS (`Alt+Up` on Windows/Linux) returns the latest queued message for editing. Press `Shift+Enter` to add a newline; `Ctrl+J` is the universal fallback for terminals that cannot distinguish modified Enter keys. Use `PageUp` at the top to load earlier transcript pages. The next launch returns to your last session unless `--session` selects another WebSocket session; use `--classic` to resume a session from another channel. The existing nanobot `/new` command keeps its original behavior: it resets the current chat. `nanobot agent` and `nanobot webui` share one on-demand local gateway: either command can start it, each launcher releases only its own client, and the last interactive launcher to exit stops it. Use `nanobot gateway --background` when the gateway must stay alive with no local clients. Type `exit` or press `Ctrl+C` when you are done. Use `nanobot agent --classic` for the legacy Python prompt.
+This opens the native terminal client with the launch directory as its workspace. It shares saved conversations and the local gateway with the WebUI.

+- Type `/` to discover commands, `/sessions` to switch conversations, or `@` to mention an app, MCP server, or saved session.
+- Press `Enter` to send or steer, `Tab` to queue a follow-up, and `Shift+Enter` to add a newline (`Ctrl+J` works in terminals that cannot distinguish modified Enter keys).
+- Use `/detach` to leave the current task running, or start with `nanobot gateway --background` when nanobot should stay online after all local clients exit.
+
+Each launch starts a new session by default. Use `--session` to resume one and `--workspace` to choose another workspace. See the [CLI reference](./docs/cli-reference.md#agent-cli) for session branching, diffs, history, shortcuts, gateway lifecycle, and compatibility options.

+Interactive mode uses nanobot's native TypeScript terminal UI. It talks to the same local gateway as the WebUI, so streaming, tool progress, and WebSocket sessions share one protocol instead of maintaining a second agent loop.

Exiting one TUI or WebUI launcher releases only that client; the last interactive launcher stops the on-demand gateway.

+The default `--theme auto` mode paints first with the terminal's default background, probes the real foreground and background colors asynchronously, and follows supported live appearance changes. Use `--theme light` or `--theme dark` when a terminal or multiplexer does not report its colors reliably.

Access changes still pass through the gateway's local-trust and active-turn policy checks.
 
 `Enter` sends the current message. While a turn is active, `Enter` steers it immediately, `Tab` queues a visible follow-up for the next turn, and `Option+Up` on macOS (`Alt+Up` on Windows/Linux) returns the latest queued message to the composer. Press `Shift+Enter` to add a newline; `Ctrl+J` is the universal fallback when a terminal cannot distinguish modified Enter keys. `Alt+Enter` and `Ctrl+Enter` are also accepted when distinguishable. Use `Up`/`Down` at the composer edge to recall prompts from the current saved session. Large pastes appear as a compact placeholder in the composer but are sent unchanged. Type `/` to discover nanobot commands and terminal navigation in one palette, or type `@` to complete installed apps, configured MCP servers, and saved sessions. Use the arrow keys to choose an item and `Tab` to complete it. `/sessions` opens a searchable conversation picker, `/new-chat` preserves the current conversation and starts another one, and `/branch` forks from a completed reply. `/diff` opens a read-only unified diff for the newest turn; use `Left`/`Right` to switch edits and `Esc` to close it. The core `/new` command retains its cross-channel behavior and resets the current chat. `Ctrl+C` copies a selection, stops a running turn, clears a non-empty composer, or exits when idle. Use `PageUp`/`PageDown` to scroll, `Ctrl+Home`/`Ctrl+End` to jump to the transcript edges, and `Ctrl+O` to expand or collapse long tool traces. When you leave the bottom, the TUI shows a scrollbar and a `Ctrl+End` hint until you return. The footer reports provider token/cache usage when available. Selections copy through OSC 52 when the terminal supports it. The transcript reflows when the terminal is resized, and exiting restores the previous screen.
