Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill
What it does
This skill allows an AI agent to interact with and manage terminal sessions using tmux. It enables creating, listing, attaching to, detaching from, and killing tmux sessions programmatically. This provides a way for agents to automate terminal workflows and manage complex tasks requiring multiple terminals.
When to use it
- Automating server administration tasks that require managing multiple terminal windows.
- Creating reproducible development environments by scripting the setup of
tmuxsessions. - Running long-running processes in detached
tmuxsessions, even after the agent disconnects. - Managing remote shell connections and workflows within a consistent environment.
Key capabilities
- Create new tmux sessions
- List existing tmux sessions
- Attach to an existing session
- Detach from a session
- Kill a tmux session
Example prompts
- "Create a new tmux session named 'dev_env'."
- "List all running tmux sessions."
- "Attach to the tmux session called 'production'."
- "Kill the tmux session named 'test_server'."
Tips & gotchas
Requires tmux to be installed on the system where the agent is operating. The agent needs appropriate permissions to manage tmux sessions, which may require sudo access depending on the configuration.
