Mac-native terminal with vertical tabs built for AI agent flow — keep several Claude Code / Codex sessions visible at once.
cmux is a terminal app optimized for the multi-agent coding workflow: vertical tabs make it easy to see several Claude Code or Codex sessions; clipboard and selection patterns match agent use.
