I get why folks use tmux/herdr, but I already use i3wm/Hyprland for window/workspace management, and want to have "shared first class windows" instead of dual binds of "super-based binds for i3 windows ... oh wait control-a based binds for tmux panes".

Has anyone got a tool/setup that is tmux-like but the remote terminals/panes are all local/native windows?

ITerm2 has a really great tmux integration where you get native windows or tabs for tmux windows and the panes are really easy to interact with. Of course it’s macOS only but I use it on my MBP and ssh to attach to my tmux sessions from a secondary Mac (getting the same experience remotely) or my phone (without all the niceties, just normal tmux, but still usable)

    Ditto, iTerm2 tmux integration is a game-changer. People at work had this whole custom-built solution to help run stuff remotely, and I couldn't even understand what that was for because I'm so used to just iTerm2+tmux.

Something like this would be great. It seems what one really need is just persistent terminal session. So this thing probably can be built on top of zmc with a few scripts.

    okey just did some investigation. ~/.config/herdr/herdr.sock JSON-RPC API so we can avoid herdr UI. In fact herdr's TUI is using it too. So basically you can write your own tool to make it work (vibe it with AI if you want)
