tmux-ide: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

tmux-ide CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from wavyrai/tmux-ide. It costs 2,984 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for tmux-ide, a terminal-native interface that adds an agent-aware dock to ordinary tmux sessions. It shows agent status, notifications, and restores sessions after a crash while keeping them as normal tmux sessions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them to adopt or unadopt sessions, install agent integrations, monitor agent states, restore fleets, and resume agent conversations after tmux failures.
Why use it?
They explain the commands, keyboard surfaces, status detection, integrations, and recovery behavior needed to operate the tool safely.

Written for Claude Code: UserPromptSubmit hook event. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions Claude Code; mentions Codex.

This is wavyrai/tmux-ide's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on tmux-ide itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything tmux-ide configures →

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-ide CLAUDE.md 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 8d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 110 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

tmux-ide

The terminal that understands your agents. tmux-ide is a terminal-native IDE and agent cockpit built around tmux: one command adds a native chrome (the dock) to any existing tmux session — fleet tabs with live agent-status glyphs, ground-truth working/blocked/done detection, notifications when an agent needs you, and crash-proof restore that revives whole fleets including Claude conversations. Nothing to migrate into, nothing to lock into: the chrome is tmux options; unadopt reverts; if tmux-ide dies your sessions are ordinary tmux.

Positioning: other tools rebuild the terminal to understand agents; tmux-ide teaches the terminal you already use to understand them. Never reference competitor projects by name in code, comments, commits, or docs.

Quick start

tmux-ide adopt <session>            # add the dock to a session you already have
tmux-ide integration install claude # ground-truth agent status via Claude Code hooks (+ skill sync)
tmux-ide                            # home screen (fleet cockpit) — or launches project config if present
tmux-ide restore --resume-agents    # after a tmux server death: rebuild everything, revive claudes
tmux-ide app [session]              # the unified app: a terminal IDE over the fleet (needs bun, or update --tui-binary)

Keys & surfaces (prefix-first)

The PRIMARY key form is the tmux prefix + letter — it survives every keyboard protocol. The ⌥ twins are a fast path that dies while a focused app (e.g. Claude Code) switches the terminal's key encoding (kitty protocol); kitty-encoded user-keys fallbacks are registered but coverage varies by terminal.

Action Reliable Fast path
Home cockpit (fleet tree + detail popup) prefix h ⌥h
Switcher popup prefix j ⌥p
Cheat sheet prefix k ⌥k
Actions menu (also: right-click anywhere — opens at the pointer, on button RELEASE) prefix u ⌥m
Sidebar (fleet nav column) prefix b ⌥b
Panels: explorer / git changes / config prefix e / g / v ⌥e / ⌥g / ⌥,

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.
