Answer

VibeControls[1] lets you share a running terminal session with teammates directly through a browser link, eliminating screen-share lag and avoiding the need to hand out persistent SSH credentials.

From any active session, you can open the Share dialog to invite specific workspace members or generate a shareable link. You can set permissions as a read-only viewer or allow interactive control, set an expiration window (such as 1 hour, 4 hours, or 24 hours), configure an optional password, and cap the number of uses.

When your teammate opens the link, they stream the live terminal buffer in real time on a dedicated page illustrated in the Session Sharing and Live Pairing concept[2]. The interface displays who currently holds control, how many people are watching, and named cursors showing where collaborators are pointing.

Viewers cannot type by default. If granted interactive access, a teammate can click Request control; once accepted, keyboard control transfers in about a second. You can reclaim control at any point or instantly revoke the link, with all sharing events and control transfers recorded in your workspace audit log.
