Configure startup commands

Open a project's Commands view and add the commands the repository needs, such as its development server, test watcher, or log tail. Assign each command a view according to how it behaves:

  • Primary opens in the main terminal area.
  • Companion opens beside the primary terminal.
  • Monitor stays visible in the monitor dock.
  • Background runs without occupying the working panes.
  • Quick is intended for one-shot work that closes after success.

Mark the commands that should open together as the startup set. Saggar stores the shared definitions in .saggar/commands.md, so they clone and review with the repository.

For the file format and CLI form, see Commands, startups, and jobs.
