About

vmux Agent Console

Features
Read full description

vmux is a native companion app for the self-hosted vmux server, built for developers running multiple CLI coding agents in tmux. Connect to your vmux server over LAN, Tailscale, or an SSH tunnel, then monitor which panes are idle, working, blocked for input, or in error. The app keeps the attention queue first, so the panes that need you are easy to find. Features: - Queue, Active, All, and tree views for tmux panes - Pane detail view with recent terminal output - Tappable menu choices for supported coding-agent prompts - Custom shortcut keys and saved snippets - Broadcast messages to multiple panes - Server settings and connected-session management - Optional APNs alerts from your own vmux server when a pane needs input - iPhone and iPad layouts vmux is self-hosted. There is no vmux cloud account, no third-party analytics, no advertising SDK, and no developer-operated relay. Your app talks to the server address you configure, and tokens are stored in the system Keychain.
