FAQPage Schema
How do I run multiple Claude personalities in separate tmux panes?

To run multiple Claude personalities in separate tmux panes, use the teammate Skill to spawn distinct personas via the claude-talk CLI. It validates personality names and routes each spawned instance into a dedicated tmux pane for parallel workflows.

Can I spawn a Claude teammate interactively instead of providing a name?

Yes, you can spawn a Claude teammate interactively by omitting the personality name. Running the spawn command without arguments prompts you to select a personality, which is then routed to its own tmux pane for isolated communication.

Do I need tmux and claude-talk to manage parallel Claude conversations?

Yes, managing parallel Claude conversations requires the claude-talk CLI, tmux, and a Bash-enabled shell. These dependencies allow the teammate Skill to create separate panes and establish communication channels between spawned personalities.

What is the best way to compare different Claude personas side-by-side?

The best way to compare Claude personas side-by-side is spawning multiple teammates in separate tmux panes. This enables real-time prompt prototyping, response testing, and behavior comparison within a single terminal session.

How does messaging work between spawned Claude teammates?

Messaging between spawned Claude teammates works through the claude-talk CLI communication channels. The Skill monitors which personality was spawned and its assigned tmux pane to ensure smooth collaboration and message routing across panes.
