Tmux Team

Multi-Agent Coordination with tmux-team

You are working in a multi-agent tmux environment. Use the tmux-team CLI to communicate with other AI agents running in different panes.

When to Use This Skill

• Delegating specialized tasks to other agents (e.g., "Ask Codex to review this code")
• Broadcasting messages to all agents
• Checking responses from agents you've messaged
• Coordinating parallel work across multiple agents

Commands (use --wait for better token utilization)

# Send and wait for response (recommended)
tmux-team talk codex "your message" --wait
tmux-team talk gemini "your message" --wait --timeout 120

# Broadcast to all agents
tmux-team talk all "message for everyone" --wait

# List configured agents
tmux-team list

Workflow

The --wait flag blocks until the agent responds, returning the response directly:

tmux-team talk codex "Review this authentication code" --wait
# Response is returned directly - no need for a separate check command

Tips

• Always use --wait - it's more token-efficient than polling with check
• Use --timeout 300 for complex tasks that need more time
• Use --delay 5 to add delay between messages (rate limiting)
