CLI Themes

Personalize the CLI with Matrix, Dracula, Nord, and more.

Available Themes

Six built-in themes are available out of the box:

Theme	Description
matrix	Green-on-black cyberpunk aesthetic
dracula	Dark purple-teal Dracula color palette
nord	Clean blue-gray minimal theme
retro	Warm amber CRT terminal look
purple	Violet and indigo tones

Setting a theme persists across sessions and applies immediately:

  Theme set to "matrix". Restart the stack to see the new colors.

Troubleshooting

Tracey Tip

Run tracellm theme reset if colors appear garbled after setting a theme. The reset command restores the default palette immediately.
