Open

Open Project Tab

Open a project in a new Terminator tab with Claude Code running.

Usage: /open PREFIX — e.g. /open MCF, /open NORE, /open PIPE

Steps

1. Parse the prefix

The argument is a project prefix. Uppercase it. If no argument, list available prefixes from docs/projects/ and stop.

2. Look up the project path

Read the frontmatter from each file in /media/data/dev/bain-studio/docs/projects/*.md and find the one where prefix: matches. Extract the path: value.

python3 - <<'EOF'
import os, re

projects_dir = "/media/data/dev/bain-studio/docs/projects"
prefix = "PREFIX_PLACEHOLDER"

for fname in os.listdir(projects_dir):
    if not fname.endswith('.md'):
        continue
    content = open(os.path.join(projects_dir, fname)).read()
    fm = re.search(r'^---\n(.*?)\n---', content, re.DOTALL)
    if not fm:
        continue
    pfx = re.search(r'^prefix:\s*(\S+)', fm.group(1), re.MULTILINE)
    path = re.search(r'^path:\s*(.+)', fm.group(1), re.MULTILINE)
    if pfx and path:
        p = pfx.group(1).upper()
        if p == prefix or p.startswith(prefix + '-'):
            print(path.group(1).strip())
            break
else:
    print("NOT_FOUND")
EOF

If NOT_FOUND, report "No project with prefix {PREFIX} found." and stop.

If the path does not exist on disk, report that and stop.

3. Open the terminal tab

terminator --new-tab --working-directory="{PATH}" -e "zsh -c 'claude; exec zsh'"

--new-tab opens a new tab in the existing Terminator window if one is running.

4. Confirm

Report: "Opened {PREFIX} → {PATH} in a new Terminator tab."
