Build web-based terminals by wiring node-pty on a Node.js backend to xterm.js in a React frontend over WebSockets. Use this skill whenever the user mentions node-pty, wants to embed a shell/terminal in a web UI, build a browser-based SSH or REPL interface, a cloud IDE terminal, a remote shell tool, a dev-container console, or anything that connects xterm.js to a real PTY — even if they don't name the library. Also use for Express + ws terminal servers, ConPTY on Windows, PTY resize/fit handling, multi-session terminal backends, and reconnection/session persistence for web terminals.
