Can I use it for regular terminal commands?

Absolutely. It can fork any raw CLI command, such as 'npm run dev', 'pytest', or system monitoring tools, into a separate tmux window.

Does it support AI agents other than Claude?

Yes, it specifically supports forking tasks to Codex CLI and Gemini CLI agents, provided they are enabled in your configuration.

What is the primary purpose of Tmux Fork?

It allows Claude to open new terminal windows in tmux to run commands or launch additional AI agents in parallel without stopping your current work.

How does the context handoff feature work?

When forking a terminal, the skill can generate a summary of your current progress and pass it as a prompt to the new agent, ensuring the new session has the necessary context.

Productivity & Workflow

Spawns parallel terminal sessions and AI coding agents within tmux to streamline multi-tasking and background processing.

Tmux Fork is a high-utility skill for Claude Code that enables the creation of new tmux windows for parallel task execution. It allows developers to offload specific tasks—such as running persistent development servers, executing long-running test suites, or initializing secondary AI agents like Gemini or Codex—into separate terminal sessions. With built-in support for context handoff, the skill can summarize current progress and pass it to a new session, ensuring seamless continuity across multiple agentic workflows without interrupting the main development thread.
