tmux-observer-friendly

当您以对观察者友好的方式创建或重启 tmux 会话时（通过不终止会话来保留已附加的观察者），同时强制替换窗格与进程，最终收敛至仅保留 1 个会话、1 个窗口和 1 个窗格，且不会对其他会话造成任何影响，应使用此技能。

Tmux Observer Friendly

[Created by Codex: 019b82d6-67dd-7010-a99f-522999f29f85]

Overview

Create and restart tmux sessions without kicking already-attached observers by never killing the tmux session; instead, replace panes and clean up windows until the session has exactly one window and one pane.

Definition: Observer-Friendly Tmux

  • •Preserve any existing tmux attach -t <session> connections by never running tmux kill-session for the target session.
  • •Restart the running workload by creating a fresh pane and force-killing old panes (not the session).
  • •Converge to exactly 1 session, 1 window, and 1 pane for deterministic observer UX.
  • •Leave all other tmux sessions untouched.

Workflow (Idempotent Convergence)

  1. •Decide session_name, directory, and what command should run in the session.
  2. •If the session does not exist, create it detached.
  3. •If the session exists:
    • •Keep one window; kill all other windows in the session.
    • •Create a fresh pane in the kept window.
    • •Kill all old panes (force-terminates any running processes).
  4. •Ensure exactly one remaining pane, then send the command to that pane.

Script

Run the bundled script for deterministic session management:

  • •scripts/setup_hermione_session.py (sample implementation)

Default Behavior (Claude Code Resume)

Send cd <folder> && cc --resume <session_id> to the session's remaining pane.

bash
python scripts/setup_hermione_session.py \
  --name Hermione --folder ~/TheSwarm/Armada --session ba73acbe-6a42-4317-a634-33948601db8d

Custom Command

Override the default resume command with --command.

bash
python scripts/setup_hermione_session.py --name MySess --folder ~/myproj --command "python main.py"

Guardrails

  • •Avoid tmux kill-session -t <session> when observers are attached.
  • •Avoid tmux kill-server and tmux detach-client -a for observer-friendly workflows.
  • •Prefer pane/window operations (kill-pane, kill-window) scoped to the target session.
