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
The tmux-cli skill allows an AI agent to interact with and manage terminal sessions using the Tmux command-line interface. It enables creating, detaching from, reattaching to, and listing existing tmux sessions. This is useful for managing multiple terminal workflows within a single window or across different environments.
When to use it
- Remote development: An agent can create and manage separate terminal sessions on a remote server for various tasks like compiling code, running tests, and deploying applications.
- Workflow organization: The skill allows an agent to organize complex workflows by creating distinct tmux sessions for different stages of a project.
- Persistent sessions: The agent can detach from long-running processes within a tmux session, ensuring they continue executing even when the AI agent is idle or disconnected.
- Session management: An agent can list existing sessions and reattach to specific ones based on their names or IDs.
Key capabilities
- Creating new Tmux sessions
- Listing existing Tmux sessions
- Detaching from a Tmux session
- Reattaching to an existing Tmux session
Example prompts
- "Create a new tmux session named 'dev'"
- "List all active tmux sessions."
- "Detach from the tmux session called 'build'."
Tips & gotchas
- Requires that
tmuxis installed on the system where the AI agent is operating. - The skill relies on accurate session names for reattaching, so ensure consistent naming conventions are used.
