tmux-ide 2.9.14
Native pane cards, compact navigation, keyboard badges and a browser launch command.
2.9.14 accompanies native macOS alpha 0.1.9, build 2026102701.
The CLI/daemon and native app are separate installations.
Native workspace
Terminal panes have separate rounded cards with gutters and a continuous header and content surface. Close sits on the far right. The compact sidebar handles session switching; the top bar no longer duplicates session tabs, and the connected footer is removed. Window tabs remain above the pane cards.
Pane dividers activate correctly and content sizing keeps bottom terminal rows visible. Use Command–Option–Arrow to focus an adjacent pane and Command–Shift–Enter to expand or restore it. Menus display these shortcuts as keyboard badges.
Open a browser pane
Run tmux-ide open https://example.com inside a tmux pane, or select a session
with --session NAME. Add --window to create a browser window instead of a split.
The command requires a separately installed terminal-browser executable and
reports missing executables or invalid targets before creating a pane.
The prepared development integration supports native pixel surfaces and favicon metadata in pane headers and window tabs. It observes only its own pane's cells, and native receivers discard obsolete surface handoffs during resize without closing the whole image connection. Stock terminal-browser installations retain their existing terminal rendering path. tmux-ide does not bundle or automatically update the external browser. Native address and navigation controls are planned for a subsequent change.
Updating
Update the CLI/daemon and the native macOS app separately. Existing tmux sessions remain intact. No measured GUI/TUI performance-parity claim is made.
