Show HN: spymux – Spy on your tmux panes

I had motivation for writing this after I kept switching back and forth between agents to see if they've finished what they were working on (and I couldn't find a similar tool out there). I'd imagine it can be useful for other scenarios as well, e.g. tracking multiple build/test jobs over multiple windows.

Still a work in progress, but I thought I'd share :)

I could have sworn this feature came by default but I guess not. On a side-note, does anyone know of any curated list of tmux plugins similar to vimawesome?

You are not mistaken - the session selector shows the overview of all windows from given session. Very similar, but not full screen

I must be missing something here that this addresses something just pane splitting doesn't...?

Great question! It really depends on how you operate. When I'm working on a project I typically have a dedicated window for it with only a few splits (e.g. neovim, a watch, an agent, etc). This tool will aggregate splits across all windows.
