SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Coordinating multiple AI agent sessions across several harnesses can become chaotic and error-prone. This Skill centralizes pane-based orchestration using dmux (tmux pane manager) to streamline parallel work streams and reduce context switching.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Parallel agent orchestration: manage multiple agent panes across Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cline, Gemini, Qwen, and other harnesses from a single session.
  • Pattern-driven workflows: implement common multiprocessing patterns (Pattern 1: Research + Implement, Pattern 2: Multi-File Feature, Pattern 3: Test + Fix Loop, Pattern 4: Cross-Harness, Pattern 5: Code Review Pipeline) with pane splitting and merging.
  • Safe, modular collaboration: isolate tasks per pane and coordinate task handoffs to reduce conflicts.

Quick Start

Start a dmux session and create parallel agent panes for your current project tasks.

Frequently Asked Questions about dmux-workflows

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run parallel AI agent sessions in tmux?▼

You can run parallel AI agent sessions by using a tmux pane manager to orchestrate multiple agent panes within a single session, enabling concurrent task execution across different harnesses.

Can I coordinate Claude Code and Codex agents in the same workflow?▼

Yes, cross-harness orchestration allows you to manage Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cline, Gemini, and Qwen panes from a single session to execute pattern-driven workflows and coordinate task handoffs.

What is the best way to manage multiple AI coding agents without context switching?▼

Orchestrating agents through a centralized tmux pane manager isolates tasks per pane and coordinates handoffs, which streamlines parallel work streams and reduces the chaos of context switching.

How do I set up a code review pipeline using parallel agent panes?▼

You can implement a code review pipeline by applying pattern-driven workflows that split and merge tmux panes, assigning specific review and implementation tasks to isolated parallel agent sessions.

Does parallel agent orchestration support test and fix loops?▼

Yes, parallel orchestration supports multiprocessing patterns like the test and fix loop, allowing you to dedicate separate panes to running tests and applying fixes concurrently across your harnesses.
