tmux

# tmux Use for existing interactive tmux sessions. For one-shot commands, use normal shell. For new non-interactive background jobs, use background execution. ## Basics ```bash tmux ls tmux list-windows -t shared tmux list-panes -t shared:0 tmux capture-pane -t shared:0.0 -p tmux capture-pane -t shared:0.0 -p -S - ``` Target format: `session:window.pane`, e.g. `shared:0.0`. ## Send input Literal text, then Enter: ```bash tmux send-keys -t shared:0.0 -l -- "Please continue" tmux send-keys -t shared:0.0 Enter ``` Special keys: ```bash tmux send-keys -t shared:0.0 C-c tmux send-keys -t shared:0.0 C-d tmux send-keys -t shared:0.0 Escape ``` Use `-l --` for arbitrary text. Split text and Enter to avoid paste/newline surprises. ## Sessions ```bash tmux new-session -d -s worker tmux rename-session -t old new tmux kill-session -t worker ``` ## Prompt checks ```bash tmux capture-pane -t worker-3 -p | tail -20 tmux capture-pane -t worker-3 -p | rg "proceed|permission|Yes|No|❯" ``` Approve/select only when the prompt is understood: ```bash tmux send-keys -t worker-3 -l -- "y" tmux send-keys -t worker-3 Enter ``` ## Helpers - `scripts/find-sessions.sh`: discover sessions. - `scripts/wait-for-text.sh`: wait until pane output contains text. ## Notes - `capture-pane -p` prints to stdout for scripts. - `-S -` captures full scrollback. - tmux sessions persist across SSH disconnects. ## PilotDeck Migration Note - Source: /var/folders/27/xyyzc_n172l3jjmnxgqmhhzh0000gn/T/tmp.AyWDWGKoS4/openclaw/skills/tmux - Review status: candidate for PilotDeck native skills pack. - Platform-specific OpenClaw/Hermes metadata was removed or should be ignored during review.
