Reproduce YOUR real terminal and CLI agents (Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI) faithfully in any generated graphic, GIF, or video frame. Use whenever an asset shows a terminal, an agent transcript, a statusline, or a CLI banner. Capture your actual theme, font, prompt and statusline first, and never invent a generic "hacker terminal" look.

# Terminal replica

Terminal-like graphics must match the real tool and the real setup of the person who ships the asset. A generic green-on-black "hacker terminal" reads as fake. This skill is a method for capturing your own setup, plus a render recipe and a worked example.

## Method

1. Capture the ground truth. Take a fresh screenshot of your real terminal running the tool. Sample background, foreground and accent colors from it with an eyedropper or `PIL.Image.getpixel`. A live screenshot beats any spec in this file.
2. Record these five facts about your setup:
   - Emulator (Terminal.app, iTerm2, Warp, the VS Code integrated terminal, Ghostty).
   - Font family and size. Check the emulator's settings. VS Code on macOS defaults to Menlo 12.
   - Theme: background, default foreground, and the 16 ANSI colors.
   - Shell prompt shape (for example `user@host ~ %` for default macOS zsh, or your powerline or starship layout).
   - Statusline format, if your agent has a custom one.
3. Use your own session logs for transcript shapes. Claude Code stores them at `~/.claude/projects/<project-slug>/*.jsonl`. The assistant and tool-use turns show exactly what text appears.
