Crux
AI-native dev environment orchestrator
What it does
Crux is a CLI that reads a declarative YAML config and launches your local dev stack—backends, web and mobile apps, workers, and dependency checks—each in its own named terminal tab. You keep scrollback and interactive control; agents connect via MCP to read live and historical logs (including stopped runs), start, restart, or stop services, and send input to tabs. The terminal stays the source of truth. Install with Homebrew.

I run a lot of Claude Code and Codex sessions in parallel. I was using Ghostty with a bunch of split panes, and relying on native macOS notifications to know when an agent needed me. But Claude Code's notification body is always just "Claude is waiting for your input" with no context, and with enough tabs open, I couldn't even read the titles anymore. I tried a few coding orchestrators but most of them were Electron/Tauri apps and the performance bugged me. I also just prefer the terminal since GUI orchestrators lock you into their workflow. So I built cmux as a native macOS app in…



- RARmux – A programmable terminal multiplexer with a Playwright-style SDKMay 2026 · github.com · ▲194
Author here. RMUX started from a frustration: I've used tmux for years and got tired of scraping output with grep and sleeps to automate anything. So I rebuilt the multiplexer from scratch in Rust, with a programmable layer on top. Two surfaces: a tmux-compatible CLI (~90 commands, your keybindings just work), and a typed async Rust SDK on the same daemon — stable pane IDs, structured snapshots, locator-style waits. The idea is Playwright-style automation, but for terminals. Native on Linux, macOS, Windows (real ConPTY, no WSL). Demos and docs at rmux.io. Happy to answer questions about the…
