tmux Interactive Sessions

Use the loaded mcp__tmux__* tools for interactive terminal work.

When to Use This

  • REPLs: python, node, irb, psql, sqlite3
  • Long-running processes: dev servers, watch commands, builds
  • Interactive CLIs: htop, vim, less
  • Persistent state: when cd, source, or export must persist

Workflow

  1. find-session first to reuse existing, else create-session
  2. list-panes to get paneId
  3. execute-command with rawMode: true for REPLs
  4. capture-pane after rawMode commands to see output
  5. kill-session when done

Key Insight

The standard execute-command wraps commands with markers to detect completion. This breaks REPLs and interactive apps. Use:

  • rawMode: true — for REPLs, interactive prompts
  • noEnter: true — for TUI navigation (sends keystrokes only)

After either, use capture-pane to see results.
