tmux

Version 2026.144.1443
Repo superproject

Terminal multiplexer providing persistent, detachable terminal sessions inside containers The tmux candy installs the tmux package (same name on RPM, DEB, and PAC distros) so the binary lands at /usr/bin/tmux. tmux is the multiplexer used by Charly’s typed terminal provider: it starts isolated detached session servers with no controlling TTY and lets sessions outlive disconnects. It is verifiable by asserting the binary exists, the package is registered, the version banner prints, and a real detached session can be created, confirmed live, and killed.

Installed on every distro:

  • tmux

This candy’s plan: — the runnable spec charly check executes against a live deployment. check: steps are idempotent probes; run: steps change state.

Intent Step
check the tmux multiplexer binary is installed at /usr/bin/tmux
check the tmux package is registered with the system package manager
check invoking tmux -V exits cleanly and prints a tmux version banner
check tmux starts a detached session with no TTY, confirms it is live, then tears it down
