tmux-project

tmux-project is a command for Claude Code from Aey-Sama/tmux-arsenal. It costs 15 tokens per session (326 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that opens or reuses a tmux workspace for a project, with separate windows for a server, coding agent, and editor. tmux is a terminal tool that keeps several command-line sessions organized in one window.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start or switch to a project's server, agent, and editor windows, then work in the project directory from tmux.
Why use it?
It avoids setting up the same project terminals each time and prevents duplicate workspaces when one already exists. If a tool is missing or closed, its window remains available as a normal shell.

Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

tmux-project scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Run the preset for $ARGUMENTS (default: the current directory):

bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/src/bin/tmux-project.sh" $ARGUMENTS

It creates three windows in a session named after the project directory, then attaches (or switches, if already inside tmux):

Window Name Contents
1 server two empty panes, side by side — docker, dev server
2 agent starts claude
3 editor starts nvim (falls back to vim)

The server panes stay empty: starting a dev server in the wrong project costs something, so the user does that. The agent and editor windows launch their tool, because the worst case there is a shell they were getting anyway.

If a tool is missing, crashes, or is quit, the pane becomes a normal shell in the project directory — the window never disappears. Re-running reuses the session instead of duplicating windows.

The session is named after the project, NOT _*, so it is the user's own workspace — never kill it as if the plugin had created it. Need a scratch shell? That is prefix c, no preset required.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
