Running 4 AI agents in 4 terminals? Give each one its own GPU-powered Matrix rain color so you never lose track.
GitHub
Windows & Linux
Free Edition Available
Running Claude Code, ChatGPT, Gemini, and a local LLM? Each gets its own color.
One color per AI agent. Green for Claude, red for ChatGPT, blue for Gemini — always know which terminal is which.
Switch layouts, swap windows, adjust speed and glow — all without leaving your agent session. Global hotkeys work from any app.
Run a full AI team side by side. Automatic Pillars and Quads layouts keep every agent visible.
GPU-accelerated pixel shaders (HLSL on Windows, GLSL on Linux). Your agents run at full speed while the Matrix rains.
Close your laptop, reopen tomorrow — bluepill restores every agent window, color, and layout exactly as you left it.
Spread your agent stack across every display. MatrixShader auto-distributes windows to fill your screens.
Pick your agent's color from a 3D white room with a CRT TV. Quick launch: construct --green, --red, and more.
Beyond Matrix rain: Aurora, Fireplace, Rain on Glass, and more. Give each agent a unique visual identity with construct --aurora.
Color-code your AI agents. Know which terminal is which at a glance.
Running multiple AI coding assistants simultaneously? Each terminal gets its own color-coded Matrix rain so you always know which agent is which. Switch between built-in layout modes and more with hotkeys.
Side-by-side columns. Each window runs a different AI tool with its own color.
2x2 grid for maximum screen real estate per window.
