tmux-mcp and libtmux-mcp
These two tools are competitors, with both projects providing MCP servers specifically for the tmux terminal multiplexer, allowing users to choose one over the other for managing their tmux sessions.
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.
