Quickstart

With Radius open, run these commands one at a time in any terminal. Each step builds on the one before it.

1. Open a tab

page="$(radius tab open "https://example.com")"

Radius opens the page and saves its returned tab_... ID in page so the next command can use it.

chat="$(radius tab open "radius://chat" --right-of "$page" --size 40%)"

Radius Chat opens in a new pane to the right of the page. The original page keeps 60% of the space and Chat uses 40%.

group="$(radius group create "CLI Demo" --tab "$page")"

The split becomes a group named CLI Demo. Radius treats a split as one tab collection, so grouping either pane groups both panes together.

You have now created a grouped, two-pane workspace with three commands.

Inspect the group from the terminal:

radius group show "$group"

Open another page in the group without changing the active tab:

radius tab open "https://developer.mozilla.org" --group "$group" --background

Return focus to the original page:

radius tab focus "$page"
