What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the management of Zellij terminal multiplexing, enabling you to spawn multiple Claude Code or tool instances, organize commands in separate panes/tabs, and maintain clean, repeatable layouts for development workflows.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Pane creation: Create new panes in specific directions (left, right, up, down) to organize tasks side-by-side.
  • Tab management: Create and close tabs to separate different projects or contexts.
  • Command execution: Run commands in new panes or tabs to keep tasks isolated.
  • Instance spawning: Launch multiple Claude Code or tool instances in their own panes.
  • Layout organization: Save and replicate multi-pane layouts for consistent workflows.
