Show HN: Tmux-IDE, OSS agent-first terminal IDE

What it is

Tmux-IDE is a terminal IDE that treats AI agents as first-class collaborators. Picture your coding environment as a persistent tmux session on a remote server. You SSH in, agents work in separate panes, and everything stays alive when you disconnect. It's declarative — you describe your workspace layout in config, not clicking menus.

Why it matters

If you're coding with Claude or other agents, this solves the "where does my agent work" problem. Your agent gets a stable terminal environment that doesn't die when your laptop sleeps. You can kick off a long-running agent task, close the lid, and pick up later. Relevant if you want agent workflows that outlive your local session.

Key details

• •Open-source project, built as a personal tool and shared publicly
• •Runs inside tmux, the terminal multiplexer — means it works over plain SSH
• •Described as "declarative" and "scriptable" — likely config-driven workspace setup
• •Designed for multi-agent scenarios where multiple AI assistants work in parallel panes
• •Always-on architecture: agents keep running on a remote machine between your sessions
