tmux is an open-source terminal multiplexer created by Nicholas Marriott and first released in 2007. It runs on Unix-like operating systems such as Linux and macOS, and lets users create multiple sessions and windows and split the screen within a single terminal.

Programs keep running after a session is detached from the terminal, and the user can reattach later. This makes tmux a common way to keep remote server work and long-running jobs alive, including sessions of command-line AI coding tools.
