Introducing cmux Fork cmux Fork Conversation lets you branch Codex/Claude Code/OpenCode/Pi/Hermes... threads to new tabs, new splits, and new workspaces It's pretty useful for exploring multiple directions in parallel, or if you want to have multiple Claudes with the same context work in the same directory (works surprisingly well)...

very cool! is super hard today to fork a current conversation (at least with claude), and I need it all the time. will be possible to extend this with plugins?

how would you like to extend? we're gonna add a cli command in next version that lets you identify which claude/codex session id is associated with each terminal, so you could add your own cmd shift p or right click action to dispatch new workspace/run the claude resume/fork command yourself and do customizations there

I've built cmux forking into my workflow a month or two ago, I should have submitted a PR (not as feature rich as yours). It's crazy powerful when you have pi manage this functionality in your workflow automation. pi's cmux windows are more intense than mine 😅

conversation forking solves the biggest problem with long agent sessions. you want to try three different approaches but context is expensive. right now I copy-paste system prompts into new tabs like a barbarian. this is the fix

I've been doing this with tmux on pi if anyone is interested

Nice work, the ability to branch contexts in parallel cuts down on context drift. I’ve seen similar tricks with hooks, but this feels smoother. Keep context isolated, it prevents accidental state bleed

Hermes just made its in-app browser a whole lot more useful. You can now keep multiple browser tabs open inside Hermes Desktop instead of every new page replacing the one you were already using. And that matters more than it sounds. Because this is not just about “having tabs.” It means Hermes can work across multiple pages without forcing you to keep losing your place every time you open the next thing. Research one source, keep it open, open another tab, compare them side by side, and keep moving. Check a few products before buying something. Look at multiple hotel or travel options at once. Keep a YouTube tutorial open in one tab while Hermes looks through docs or another page in the next. And because this lives inside Hermes Desktop, you are not limited to one basic browser view either. You can keep multiple tabs open. You can view two pages side by side. You can stack them top and bottom. You can even run a four-panel view when you want several pages open at once. So the browser inside Hermes is starting to feel a lot more like a real workspace instead of one page you keep replacing. There is also some nice polish that comes with it. Browser tabs now label themselves based on the page, and the address bar behaves more cleanly while pages are loading. And remember, this is the same in-app browser Hermes can already read, click through, type in, scroll, and annotate. So this is not just a prettier browser. It is a more capable workspace for the browser Hermes is actually using. If Hermes is going to do more of your work on the web, this is exactly the kind of browser upgrade it needed.
