Profiles

Profiles let you define how new tabs start: shell, working directory, and appearance.

Create a Profile

  1. Open Settings with Cmd + ,.
  2. Go to the Profiles section.
  3. Create a new profile and configure:
    • Name
    • Shell (for example zsh or bash)
    • Default working directory
    • Tab color

Use a Profile

  • Open a new tab and choose the profile.
  • Tabs opened with that profile inherit its shell and working directory.
  • Use multiple profiles for different workflows (app repo, infra repo, personal scripts).

Edit or Remove Profiles

  • Update profile values in Settings at any time.
  • Delete unused profiles to keep profile selection clean.
  • Keep at least one general-purpose profile as your default.
