README
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
brandbv - 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
Why NTM
| Area | What NTM provides | Typical commands |
|---|---|---|
| Session orchestration | Spawn, label, inspect, zoom, dashboard, palette | ntm spawn, ntm dashboard, ntm palette |
