SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The WezTerm Skill enables controlling the WezTerm terminal emulator from the command line to manage panes, tabs, and workspaces efficiently.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Pane management: list, split, navigate, and resize panes programmatically.
  • Workspace and session control: spawn new tabs, switch focus, and automate workflows across multiple panes.
  • Use Case: Imagine debugging a multi-process application in a single window with logs in one pane and commands in another.

Quick Start

  • Start a new session and run a command: wezterm cli spawn -- bash
  • Split the current pane to the right and run a command: wezterm cli split-pane --right -- htop
  • Send text to the active pane: wezterm cli send-text "ls -la\n"

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate pane management in WezTerm from the command line?▼

Send commands to a specific WezTerm pane programmatically using the WezTerm CLI send-text command. This injects text directly into the active pane, enabling automated multi-pane workflows like viewing logs while executing commands simultaneously.

What is the best way to orchestrate multiple terminal panes during a debugging workflow?▼

Orchestrate multiple terminal panes during debugging by spawning and splitting WezTerm panes via the CLI. You can programmatically arrange a single window with logs in one pane and debugging commands in another for synchronized multi-process observation.

Can I manage WezTerm workspaces and tabs across local or SSH sessions using the CLI?▼

Manage WezTerm workspaces and tabs across local or SSH sessions using the CLI to spawn new tabs, switch focus, and automate workflows. The CLI operates directly through WezTerm without requiring other external terminal management tools.

Do I need external dependencies or tools to split WezTerm panes from a script?▼

You do not need external dependencies or tools to split WezTerm panes from a script. The WezTerm CLI natively handles splitting, spawning, and activating panes entirely on its own without requiring other packages.
