smux is a one-command tmux configuration with Option-key bindings, mouse support, and pane labels, bundled with a tmux-bridge CLI. The CLI lets AI agents read, type, and send keys to any tmux pane, enabling agent-to-agent communication across panes.

Use cases

  • set up a keyboard-friendly tmux config in one command
  • let Claude Code read and type into a Codex pane
  • enable agent-to-agent communication in tmux panes
  • label tmux panes and address them by name from scripts
  • automate terminal interactions from any bash-capable AI agent

When to choose

  • you use tmux on macOS or Linux and want a batteries-included config
  • you want multiple AI coding agents to collaborate across terminal panes
  • you need a simple CLI for scripts or agents to drive terminal sessions

When to avoid

  • you don't use tmux or prefer GUI terminals
  • you need Windows support
  • you want a full agent orchestration framework rather than pane-level communication
