tmux-mcp and tmuxcontrollib
Both projects provide MCP servers for Tmux, making them competitors for anyone looking to control Tmux sessions remotely via the MCP protocol.
About tmux-mcp
nickgnd/tmux-mcp
A MCP server for our beloved terminal multiplexer tmux.
Exposes tmux session state and control as MCP resources and tools, enabling Claude Desktop to list sessions/windows/panes, capture terminal output, and execute commands within tmux. Implements shell-agnostic command execution with configurable shell detection (bash, fish, etc.) to properly parse exit statuses. Integrates directly with Claude Desktop via the Model Context Protocol, allowing AI assistants to observe and manipulate terminal multiplexer state programmatically.
