cmux is an open-source terminal “built for multitasking.” Its official copy clearly targets programming agent workflows and offers a Mac download. Rather than being a traditional terminal that simply provides shell windows, it organizes the development workflow around workspaces, session recovery, notifications, browser automation, and AI coding agent session management.
Based on the documentation navigation, cmux covers getting started guides, core concepts, configuration, the TextBox beta, session recovery, custom commands, Dock shortcuts, CLI reference, browser automation, skills, notifications, and SSH Agent. The changelog shows recent improvements to the iPhone Companion App beta, which can pair an iPhone with a Mac and connect to the terminal from the phone, with optional terminal notification forwarding. It also supports dragging workspaces across windows, and custom sidebar extensions now run as separate processes, reducing the risk that an extension crash will bring down the main app.
cmux clearly places strong emphasis on agent workflows. The scraped content mentions Claude Code Teams, oh-my-opencode, oh-my-codex, oh-my-claudecode, and OMP agent hook integration. The changelog also mentions fixes for Claude resume, Codex resume, node-backed Claude sessions, and more, indicating dedicated support for AI coding session recovery, state tracking, and notifications.
The page does not provide pricing, paid tiers, or payment method information, so its business model cannot be determined. The documentation entry points are fairly complete, including docs, blog, changelog, community, and CLI reference. However, the content captured this time is mainly from the changelog, so the quality of the actual tutorials could not be further verified.
Its strengths are that it is open source, designed for multitasking and agent-based coding, offers a feature set aligned with the needs of modern AI developers, and appears to be actively updated. Limitations include that the available text only clearly mentions a Mac version, while support for other platforms is unknown; TextBox and the iPhone Companion App are still in beta; and information on self-hosting, API/SDK support, and pricing is limited. It is a good fit for Mac developers, frequent users of agents such as Claude/Codex, and anyone who needs to manage multiple terminal sessions and notifications.
The captured content does not indicate availability from mainland China, mirrors, payment options, or localization, so this remains unknown. If access is restricted, alternatives such as iTerm2, WezTerm, Tabby, Ghostty, or Warp may be worth considering.
