# Overview

Terminal in the full Desktop or Web runtime is a real interactive shell rooted in the selected project or managed cloud workspace.

*Studio interface in English. Sample data.*

## Steps

1. Open Terminal from Stage, Command Center, or the workspace launcher.
2. Run pwd or the platform equivalent and confirm the expected project root.
3. Execute a small read-only command before any mutation.
4. Keep output visible while you verify files, services, or tests in the task.

## Expected result

Commands execute in the intended workspace and their output remains available in the terminal tab.

> **Note:** When a terminal runtime is not injected, the generic Stage surface degrades to read-only streamed command output instead of pretending to be interactive.
