Mitchell Hashimoto announced libghostty-vt 1.0, a portable C library for terminal emulation. The 1.0 release commits the library to a stable ABI under semantic versioning, which is the point where projects embedding it get a compatibility promise between versions. The library already powers the terminal inside JetBrains IDEs and several agentic coding tools. That means the guarantee applies to software already in users' hands, not only to new adopters. For agent tools that run or display terminal sessions, it offers a maintained, production emulator to embed instead of a homegrown one.
