i’ve fallen in love with cmux by @manaflowai
coding has become all about parallel work. this means you need:
- more visual context to reduce the negative effects of multitasking
- faster ways to navigate between projects/tools, since you have many more open at any given time
before i had tabs for each project and splits for each tool but everything felt clunky. i lacked context and switching to the project/tool combination felt far away
now i have a script that sets up the tabs in cmux every time i create a new worktree. i can quickly switch by pressing ⌥+2 (go to project 2) and ⌘+1 (go to tool 1). this means i can view my tools in full screen instead of seeing them all cramped up
also i can stay more in the loop because the layout allows for more visual context like notifications or pull requests
it’s crazy how much this has helped my mental clarity
we’ll work hard on making opencode better for these setups as well
