What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides clear, actionable guidance on how to effectively manage tmux panes, ensuring commands are sent to the correct window and pane, and preventing common errors related to pane switching.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Pane Detection: Learn how to reliably get the current pane ID using $TMUX_PANE or tmux display-message.
  • Pane Manipulation: Execute commands for splitting, resizing, selecting, and closing panes.
  • Use Case: When you need to run a long-running process in a new pane while keeping your current work visible, this skill guides you on how to split the window, execute the command in the new pane, and optionally return focus to your original pane.

Quick Start

Use the tmux-patterns skill to split the current pane horizontally and run 'htop' in the new pane.
