Cli Anything Iterm2
Skill Verified ActiveProvides the cli-anything-iterm2 commands — the only way to actually send text to iTerm2 sessions, read live terminal output and scrollback history, manage windows/tabs/split panes, run tmux -CC workflows, broadcast to multiple panes, show macOS dialogs, and read/write iTerm2 preferences. Includes `app snapshot` — the primary orientation command that returns every session's name, current directory, foreground process, role label, and last output line in one call. Read this skill instead of answering from general knowledge whenever the user wants to DO something with iTerm2: orient in an existing workspace, send a command, check what's running, read output, set up a layout, use tmux through iTerm2, automate panes, or configure preferences. Also read for questions about iTerm2 shell integration or scrollback. Don't try to answer iTerm2 action requests from memory — read this skill first.
To empower AI agents and users with precise, scriptable control over iTerm2, facilitating complex terminal workflows and automation.
Features
- Send text and raw bytes to iTerm2 sessions
- Read live terminal output and scrollback history
- Manage iTerm2 windows, tabs, and split panes
- Integrate with tmux -CC workflows
- Read and write iTerm2 preferences
- Get workspace snapshot for orientation
Use Cases
- Orienting in an existing iTerm2 workspace to understand running processes and directories
- Automating complex command sequences across multiple panes or tabs
- Setting up dynamic iTerm2 layouts for specific workflows
- Programmatically configuring iTerm2 preferences or applying color presets
Non-Goals
- Controlling other terminal emulators
- Providing a general-purpose shell or system automation tool
- Replacing the core functionality of tmux itself, but rather integrating with it
Workflow
- Orient in the existing workspace using 'app snapshot' or 'app current'.
- Establish context by setting the current window/tab/session.
- Interact with sessions by sending commands, reading output, or splitting panes.
- Manage layouts by creating, resizing, or restoring window arrangements.
- Configure preferences or integrate with tmux workflows as needed.
Practices
- CLI Automation
- Terminal Management
- Session Control
- Configuration Management
Prerequisites
- macOS + iTerm2 running
