mmux vs the rest

Comparisons

Terminal multiplexers

• mmux vs tmuxThe general-purpose terminal multiplexer mmux itself runs on: panes, windows and full configuration, with no notion of agents.
• mmux vs ZellijA Rust terminal workspace with tiled, floating and stacked panes, layouts, plugins and a web client; mmux trades layout freedom for an agent sidebar.

Agent managers in the terminal

• mmux vs Agent DeckA Go session manager on tmux with agent status, forks, MCP and skill management and a web UI; mmux works per project, with dev processes and a git panel.
• mmux vs CCManagerA TUI for parallel agent CLIs across worktrees and projects that runs without tmux; mmux keeps agents alive in tmux and adds shells, processes and git.
• mmux vs Claude SquadRuns each agent in its own tmux session and git worktree; mmux creates worktrees on demand and adds dev processes and a git panel.
• mmux vs workmuxA CLI that pairs each git worktree with a tmux window and uses tmux as the interface; mmux puts its own TUI on a hidden tmux session.

Terminal apps

• mmux vs cmuxA native macOS terminal by Manaflow, built on libghostty, with tabs, splits, a browser and notifications; a separate project from mmux despite the name.
• mmux vs WarpA desktop terminal with its own AI agent, cloud agents and paid usage; mmux runs inside any terminal and keeps your agent CLIs alive in tmux.

Desktop apps for coding agents

• mmux vs Codex appOpenAI's desktop app for parallel Codex threads in git worktrees; mmux runs any CLI agent in a terminal, locally or over SSH.
• mmux vs ConductorA Mac app by Melty Labs that runs Claude Code, Codex and other agents in parallel worktrees, built around pull request review.
• mmux vs Nimbalyst (formerly Crystal)The successor of Crystal: a desktop app with Claude Code and Codex sessions next to visual editors and a task tracker.
• mmux vs OrcaA desktop app for agents in parallel worktrees, with an editor, a browser and SSH worktrees built in; mmux does the same job inside a terminal.
• mmux vs PaseoA daemon that runs your agent CLIs, with desktop, iOS, Android, web and CLI clients; mmux keeps everything in one terminal session.
• mmux vs SoloA macOS and Windows app by Aaron Francis that supervises a dev stack from solo.yml and lets agents control it over MCP, HTTP or a CLI.
• mmux vs SupersetAn Electron app for parallel CLI agents in worktrees, with a CLI, SDK and hosted MCP server; mmux is a single-binary TUI on tmux.
