amux is an open-source agent multiplexer that lets you run, monitor, and control multiple headless Claude Code sessions from a single dashboard — in your browser, on your phone, or from the terminal.
The problem: I run 5-10 Claude Code agents at a time across different repos. Keeping track of which one is waiting for input, which one is working, and which one broke something was chaos. I needed a control tower.
What it does:
- Spin up any number of Claude Code sessions, each isolated in its own tmux pane
- Live status detection (working / needs input / idle) via SSE — know at a glance which agents need you
- Web dashboard installable as a PWA on your phone. Monitor and send commands from the couch
- Multi-pane grid view to watch multiple agents side by side
- File attachments — paste images, drag-and-drop files directly to agents
- Built-in kanban board for tracking work across all your agents
- Token usage stats so you know what each agent is costing you
- Tailscale integration for secure remote access with zero config
The entire thing is a single Python file with zero dependencies beyond Python 3 and tmux. No build step, no npm install, no Docker. Clone, run `install.sh`, done.
I use this every day to coordinate agents working on different microservices simultaneously. The phone PWA is surprisingly useful — I'll kick off a batch of tasks and check in from my phone while doing other things.
Everything is also exposed via REST API so you can script orchestration workflows with curl.

Happy to answer any questions about the architecture or how I use it day to day.
