SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill allows for the remote control of terminal multiplexer (tmux) sessions, enabling the sending of keystrokes and scraping of pane output for interactive command-line interfaces.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Interactive CLI Management: Execute commands and interact with running processes within tmux panes.
  • Output Scraping: Capture and analyze the output from specific tmux panes.
  • Parallel Agent Orchestration: Run multiple coding agents or tasks concurrently in separate tmux sessions.

Quick Start

Use the tmux skill to send the command 'ls -l' to pane 0.0 of the 'clawdbot' session.

Frequently Asked Questions about tmux

FAQPage Schema
How do I control interactive CLI sessions remotely using tmux?

You can control interactive CLI sessions by sending keystrokes to tmux panes and scraping output, enabling remote execution and monitoring of running processes without maintaining an active terminal connection.

Can I run multiple coding agents in parallel using terminal sessions?

Yes, you can run multiple coding agents concurrently by orchestrating them in separate tmux sessions, allowing parallel task execution and isolated output monitoring for each agent instance.

How do I capture and analyze output from a specific terminal pane?

Capturing output from a specific terminal pane is done via output scraping, which extracts the text buffer from a targeted tmux pane so you can analyze the results of interactive commands programmatically.

Do I need the tmux binary installed to manage background tasks?

Yes, you need the tmux binary installed and accessible in your system's PATH to manage background tasks, as the Skill relies on it to execute non-interactive long-running commands and discover sessions.

What is the best way to execute long-running non-interactive commands in the background?

The best way to execute long-running non-interactive commands is using this Skill to dispatch them into background tmux sessions, which keeps the processes alive detached from the foreground while providing tools for output discovery.
