CLIFavorite in CLIs
tmuxlet
Runs Claude Code, Codex and other coding CLIs through tmux, so agents can drive them headless.
Use it all the time
I reach for it most days.
A favorite. I haven’t marketed it at all, and I think it could be big.

The problem
Letting my agents drive interactive coding CLIs like Claude Code and Codex, headless.
What I made
It runs Claude Code, Codex, cursor-agent and other coding CLIs inside tmux, behind a “claude -p”-style interface. This site was built through it.
