Tmux MCP Server is a Node.js MCP server that connects an AI assistant such as Claude Desktop to a local tmux installation, so the model can observe and drive terminal sessions. It exposes tmux state as MCP resources: tmux://sessions lists all sessions, tmux://pane/{paneId} returns the visible content of a given pane, and tmux://command/{commandId}/result returns the output of a command the server executed earlier. On top of those resources it provides tools for reading and for control. Read-oriented tools include list-sessions, find-session by name, list-windows for a session, list-panes for a window, and capture-pane to pull the current text of a pane. Control tools include create-session, create-window, split-pane horizontally or vertically with an optional size, kill-session, kill-window and kill-pane, plus execute-command to run a command inside a pane and get-command-result to fetch its output afterwards. The README marks command execution as use at your own risk, since the server runs whatever the model asks for in a live shell. Setup requires Node.js and a running tmux; the server is added to a client configuration by running npx -y tmux-mcp, and an optional --shell-type flag tells the server which shell is in use, for example fish, because it needs that only to read the exit status of executed commands correctly, defaulting to bash. The project is useful for developers who keep long-lived tmux workspaces and want an assistant that can watch build output, inspect logs in a pane, or arrange and clean up windows without leaving the chat.
