FAQPage Schema
How do I stop a tmux worker pane that has become unresponsive?

To stop a tmux worker pane, you target it by its pane number to terminate the associated Claude process. This safely halts the unresponsive worker and updates its task status without crashing the session.

What happens if I try to kill the boss pane instead of a worker pane?

The process enforces target pane validation to prevent stopping the boss pane. It ensures you only terminate specific worker panes, protecting your primary Doey session from accidental shutdown.

How do I manually terminate a hung Claude process in a Doey session?

You can manually terminate a hung Claude process by invoking the stop command with the specific worker's tmux pane number. This action safely stops the worker and updates the task status accordingly.

Does stopping a tmux pane automatically update the task status?

Yes, terminating a worker pane automatically updates the task status accordingly. This ensures the Doey session accurately reflects the halted state of the worker process after manual shutdown.

When should I manually shut down a worker pane instead of waiting for it to finish?

You should manually shut down a worker pane when it becomes unresponsive or misbehaves. Terminating the worker process by its pane number cleans up the task and maintains Doey session stability.
