Workspaces

How RemoteMux uses tmux-backed workspaces for parallel work.

Workspaces are the units you work in once an environment exists.

The Default Workspace

Every environment starts with a workspace named main:

• main uses the shared /workspace root
• It has a primary tmux session
• rmux workspace attach targets it by default

Named Workspaces

Named workspaces let you keep parallel work isolated:

rmux workspace new server
rmux workspace new agent-a
rmux workspace new agent-b

For git repos, named workspaces use remote git worktrees. For non-git directories, RemoteMux creates copied folders.

Commands

rmux workspace attach            # open the default workspace
rmux workspace attach server     # open a named workspace
rmux workspace run bun test      # send a command without attaching
rmux workspace logs server       # view workspace output
rmux workspace rm agent-a        # remove a workspace

Editor Access

rmux workspace code main         # open in VS Code
rmux workspace cursor server     # open in Cursor

Editor access currently supports backend=aws and backend=gcp. See Editor Access for details.
