TermWorks

Discover opportunities while you code.

TermWorks is a terminal plugin that surfaces contextual developer opportunities — jobs, startup roles, and tool recommendations — based on what you're actually building. You earn for every verified opportunity shown.

curl -fsSL https://term.works/install.sh | bash

How it works

  1. Install the CLI — one command, works with zsh and bash
  2. TermWorks classifies your activity locally — nothing raw is uploaded
  3. Relevant opportunities appear occasionally between commands
  4. Earn for every verified opportunity. Cash out via Stripe Connect.

Typical earnings: $5–$25/month depending on terminal activity. Heavy terminal users (DevOps, infra) earn toward the top end.

What developers say

I'm in the terminal all day on four machines running kubectl and Terraform. If a platform-eng role at an AI startup appears while I'm doing a rollout — that's more targeted than anything LinkedIn has ever sent me. And I get paid for it.

Senior DevOps engineer

The LinkedIn InMail thing is broken. If I could tell a system 'I work in Node and Go, I'm open to remote roles at funded startups, now show me those and nothing else' — that's the version of recruiting I'd actually want.

Full-stack indie hacker

I don't want to join a job board. I want to keep doing what I'm doing and have the right opportunity find me when I'm in the right headspace for it — which is when I'm in the terminal, building things.
