Tmux Bridge FAQs

Question 1

What is Tmux Bridge?

Accepted Answer

Tmux Bridge is an MCP server that enables AI agents (like Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex) to communicate seamlessly by programmatically reading, typing, and sending messages across different tmux terminal panes. It acts as a central communication hub for your AI team.

Question 2

How does Tmux Bridge enhance multi-agent workflows?

Accepted Answer

It allows AI agents to coordinate complex tasks by chaining tool calls across panes. For instance, one agent can research in one pane, send findings to another for implementation, and have a third agent review the code, all autonomously within your terminal.

Question 3

What are the primary requirements to use Tmux Bridge?

Accepted Answer

To get started, you need 'tmux' installed (the terminal multiplexer), Node.js 18+ to run the MCP server, and at least one MCP-compatible AI agent configured to use Tmux Bridge.

Question 4

Which AI agents are compatible with Tmux Bridge?

Accepted Answer

Tmux Bridge natively supports any MCP-compatible agent over stdio, including Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex, and Kimi CLI (v1.26+). It's also designed to work with other MCP-enabled clients like Cursor, Windsurf, Aider, and more.

Question 5

What are the core capabilities Tmux Bridge provides to AI agents?

Accepted Answer

Agents gain the ability to read the last N lines of any tmux pane's output, type text or send formatted messages into other panes, send special keys (like Enter or Ctrl+C), and label panes for easy targeting. This facilitates monitoring, task assignment, and collaborative development.
