RMUX drops programmable terminal engine for agents

A universal Rust-based terminal multiplexer with a typed SDK designed to let AI agents drive CLI and TUI apps programmatically. It brings "Playwright-style" automation to the command line, offering structured snapshots and deterministic waits for agentic workflows.

// ANALYSIS

Tmux was built for human muscle memory; the agentic era needs a multiplexer that speaks code, not just keystrokes.

–The typed Rust SDK replaces brittle "blind typing" and flaky grep loops with deterministic "wait_for_text" assertions.
–Native Windows support via ConPTY makes it a truly universal tool for cross-platform agent deployment without WSL.
–Structured snapshots provide agents with JSON-ready terminal state, bypassing the need to scrape raw PTY buffers.
–Ratatui integration allows developers to embed live, interactive agent sessions directly into custom TUI dashboards.
–Tmux compatibility for 90+ commands ensures a low barrier to entry for developers migrating from legacy multiplexers.
