Terminal Requirements

tiki CLI tool works best with modern terminal emulators that support:

  • 256-color or TrueColor (24-bit) support
  • UTF-8 encoding for proper character display
  • Standard ANSI escape sequences
  • macOS: iTerm2, kitty, Ghostty, Alacritty, or default Terminal.app
  • Linux: kitty, Ghostty, Alacritty, GNOME Terminal, Konsole, or any xterm-256color compatible terminal
  • Windows: Windows Terminal, ConEmu, or Alacritty

Terminal Configuration

For best results, ensure your terminal is set to:

  • TERM environment variable: xterm-256color or better (e.g., xterm-truecolor)
  • UTF-8 encoding enabled

If colors don't display correctly, try setting:

export TERM=xterm-256color
