tmux-ide.com sets no cookies and loads nothing from other sites. It counts page views with Vercel Web Analytics. The tmux-ide software checks npm once a day for a newer version, and you can turn that off.

What this website collects
We measured these facts on the live site in a real browser on 29 October 2026, on the homepage and the documentation, including a click and a search.
- Every request the page made went to tmux-ide.com. The site loads no scripts, fonts or images from other sites.
- The site sets no cookies, before or after you click a link or search.
- The site stores nothing in your browser's local storage, with one exception: if you use the theme switch, the key
themeremembers light or dark. It stays in your browser. - Documentation search sends the text you type, and nothing else from the page, as
/api/search?query=…to tmux-ide.com.
Page view counts
The site uses Vercel Web Analytics to count page views. For each page you open, the script sends one request to tmux-ide.com with the page address, the page's route pattern (such as /docs/[[...slug]]), the address of the site that linked you here, and the script's version. It sends no cookie and stores nothing in your browser.
According to Vercel's documentation, Vercel also records the location (country, region and city), the operating system, the browser and the device type. It identifies a visit by a hash of the request rather than a cookie, discards that hash after 24 hours, and gives us aggregated counts only.
Hosting and the installer
Vercel hosts tmux-ide.com. As with any website, your browser's requests reach Vercel's servers with your IP address and the headers your browser sends. When you follow a link to another site, the site's referrer policy lets your browser send only https://tmux-ide.com/, not the page you were on.
curl -fsSL https://tmux-ide.com/install.sh | sh fetches the installer with an ordinary request, the same as a page, and sets no cookie. The installer then downloads Node.js from nodejs.org and the tmux-ide package from the npm registry. When it installs the macOS native alpha, it also downloads a release file from GitHub.
What the tmux-ide software sends
This section covers the tmux-ide CLI and terminal app that npm and the installer set up. They contain no analytics or telemetry code, and make only these requests to the internet:
- Once a day, a version check asks the npm registry for the latest version (
registry.npmjs.org/tmux-ide/latest, orbetaon a beta release). The request carries no data about you or your sessions. To turn it off, set"updates": { "check": false }in~/.tmux-ide/config.json(update-check.ts). - If you set
updates.manifeststotrue(off by default), the same daily check downloads the agent-detection manifest pack from the tmux-ide GitHub releases (manifest-pack.ts). - When you run
tmux-ide update, it fetches the new release through npm or the tmux-ide.com installer.tmux-ide update --tui-binarydownloads the app binary from the tmux-ide GitHub releases.
Agent status, sessions and restore snapshots stay on your machine and on the SSH hosts you connect. Programs you run inside tmux-ide, such as coding agents, make their own network connections under their own terms. The macOS native alpha is a separate build that this page does not yet describe.
