NTM - Named Tmux Manager

NTM turns `tmux` into a local control plane for multi-agent software development. It combines session orchestration, graph-aware work triage, safety policy and approvals, Agent Mail coordination, durable state capture, machine-readable robot surfaces, and a local REST/WebSocket API in one Go binary.

TL;DR

The Problem

Running several coding agents in parallel is easy to start and annoying to sustain. Plain `tmux` gives you panes, but it does not give you durable coordination, work selection, safety policy, approvals, history, replayable automation surfaces, or a shared control model that both humans and agents can use.

The Solution

NTM gives you a single local system for:

• spawning labeled multi-agent sessions in tmux
• sending work, interrupts, and follow-ups across panes
• triaging what to do next with br and bv
• coordinating agents with Agent Mail, file reservations, and assignments
• protecting dangerous operations with policy, approvals, and guards
• exposing the whole system through --robot-*, REST, SSE, WebSocket, and OpenAPI
• capturing state with checkpoints, timelines, audit trails, and pipeline state
