Why An Agent — Not A Code Terminal?

为何用智能体,而非代码终端?

Some people use AI coding terminals extremely effectively, and with enough customization they can behave a lot like an agent. But this usually requires working directly in the terminal, configuring tools and integrations, and adapting the environment to each workflow.

An agent packages those capabilities into something designed to be persistent and accessible. Instead of sitting at a computer with a terminal open, you can communicate with your agent through text, Discord, Telegram, LINE, WhatsApp, and other channels. It can keep its tools, skills, memory, and context available across those conversations—so the same agent can help whether you're at your desk or sending it a message from your phone.

The difference isn't necessarily intelligence—it's accessibility, persistence, and integration into everyday life.
