FAQPage Schema
How do I edit cmux configuration values in cmux.json safely?

To edit cmux configuration safely, use a guided helper that views, validates, and modifies ~/.config/cmux/cmux.json. It enforces schema validation to catch unknown settings and opens the file in your preferred editor for immediate live reload without manual restarts.

What is the best way to validate cmux settings against a schema?

Validating cmux settings involves checking keys in ~/.config/cmux/cmux.json against a bundled schema. This process catches unknown or invalid configurations across appearance, sidebar, notifications, automation, browser, and shortcuts before applying any changes.

Can I update specific JSON paths in my cmux configuration without restarting?

Yes, you can update specific JSON paths within ~/.config/cmux/cmux.json using a bundled helper script. After modifying the targeted paths, changes apply immediately with live reload, eliminating the need for manual application restarts.

Does the cmux settings editor support configuration for shortcuts and automation?

The cmux settings editor supports configuration across appearance, sidebar, notifications, automation, browser, and shortcuts. It validates these categories against a schema and applies JSON path updates directly through your preferred text editor.

Why does my cmux.json configuration fail to apply changes correctly?

A cmux.json configuration may fail due to misconfigured or unknown settings keys. Using a schema-backed validation helper catches these invalid entries before they are applied, ensuring only valid configuration changes are written and reloaded.
