abstract var hideFromUser: Boolean?

When enabled the terminal will run the process as normal but not be surfaced to the user until Terminal.show is called. The typical usage for this is when you need to run something that may need interactivity but only want to tell the user about it when interaction is needed. Note that the terminals will still be exposed to all extensions as normal. The hidden terminals will not be restored when the workspace is next opened.

When this is true, the complete environment must be provided as nothing will be inherited from the process or any configuration.
