A fast, lightweight, open-source alternative to Warp — command blocks, inline AI, panes, themes, remote control, and more. Built with Rust + Tauri 2 + SolidJS + xterm.js: a few-MB native binary, fully local, no account, no telemetry.
Platforms: Linux (X11 & Wayland), macOS (Intel & Apple Silicon) and Windows — built for all three on every release. macOS & Windows binaries are currently unsigned (a one-time first-launch prompt; see Install).
 Command blocks — each command + output is a navigable block |
 Inline AI — explain a block or generate a command |
 Panes, tabs & themes |
 Remote control from your phone |
 Settings — appearance, shell, AI providers, file tree, shortcuts & more |
|
- Command blocks — each command + its output is an isolated, navigable block (via shell integration / OSC 133), with exit-code badges, copy, rerun.
- Inline AI — explain a block or generate a command from natural language. Multiple providers: the local Claude or Codex CLI, or any OpenAI-compatible API (OpenAI, DeepSeek, Ollama…). Pick per provider model.
- Panes & tabs — splits, drag-and-drop rearrange, layout presets, full session persistence (tabs, panes, sizes, working dirs).
- Autocomplete — inline suggestions from history, files, aliases, commands.
- File tree sidebar that follows the active pane's directory, with customizable right-click commands.
- Remote control — drive your terminals from your phone or another PC, on the LAN or over the internet (cloudflared quick tunnel), with QR pairing. The mobile page has a Termux-style key row, live directory completion, swipe-to-move-cursor, and a tab bar to switch/create terminals.
- Themes & fonts — 9 built-in themes, custom font import, Nerd Font support, remappable keybindings, text zoom.
- 14 languages — fully translated UI, switchable in settings (English default).
- Desktop notifications when long commands finish in the background.
- Self-updating on every platform, with signature-verified updates.
Grab the installer for your OS from the latest release.
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hugomyb/Lume/main/scripts/install.sh | bashThis installs the latest AppImage and adds a menu entry. If it doesn't launch,
install FUSE 2: sudo apt install -y libfuse2.
Download Lume_*_amd64.deb from the latest release:
sudo apt install ./Lume_*_amd64.debsudo dnf install ./Lume-*.x86_64.rpmyay -S lume-bin # or: paru -S lume-binDownload the universal Lume_*_universal.dmg, open it, and drag Lume to
Applications. It's unsigned for now, so on first launch macOS will block it —
right-click the app → Open (or System Settings → Privacy & Security →
Open Anyway). After that it launches normally and auto-updates.
Download and run Lume_*_x64-setup.exe (NSIS installer). It's unsigned for
now, so SmartScreen may warn — click More info → Run anyway. Updates install
in-app afterwards.
For command blocks, autocomplete and cwd tracking, add the integration line to
your shell config (Lume shows the exact line on first launch; the script is
written to your config dir — ~/.config/lume/ on Linux/macOS, %APPDATA%\lume\
on Windows):
# ~/.zshrc (or .bashrc / fish config.fish)
[[ -n "$LUME_TERM" ]] && source "$HOME/.config/lume/lume-shell-init.zsh"# PowerShell — $PROFILE (Windows)
if ($env:LUME_TERM) { . "$env:APPDATA\lume\lume-shell-init.ps1" }Requirements: Rust (stable), Node 20+, and the Tauri Linux deps:
sudo apt install -y libwebkit2gtk-4.1-dev libgtk-3-dev librsvg2-dev \
libayatana-appindicator3-dev libxdo-dev patchelf
npm install
npm run tauri dev # run in dev
npm run tauri build # build bundles (target/release/bundle/)Contributions are welcome! See CONTRIBUTING.md for how to set up, build, run the checks, and open a pull request. By participating you agree to the Code of Conduct.
