Puppeteer for TUIs using libghostty-vt—finally agents can drive vim without screen scraping.
Strengths
- •libghostty-vt parsing tracks cursor position and scrollback accurately.
- •Synchronization primitives know when TUI finishes redrawing—pexpect can't do this.
- •Unix-socket daemon enables live session watching from separate terminal.
Weaknesses
- •Only 64 GitHub stars suggests limited early adoption and community validation.
- •Agent-driven TUI automation is emerging—unclear long-term demand beyond hype.
