How does Native Selection Tmux Mode work in 1DevTool?

Step 1: Open a Terminal — Click "+" to create a new terminal tab. Choose from Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Amp, bash, zsh, or custom shells. Step 2: Arrange Your Layout — Switch between grid, columns, or fullscreen with one click. Drag dividers to resize panes to your preference. Step 3: Run Your Agents — Start your AI agents with pre-configured prompts or type freely. Watch them work in real-time with status indicators. Step 4: Monitor & Manage — Use the Terminal Dashboard for a bird's-eye view. Sessions persist across restarts so you never lose context.

Terminal & AI Agents

Native Selection Tmux Mode

Native text selection is the new default tmux mouse behavior — wheel scroll moves the terminal directly, drag selects text natively, and the tmux copy-mode position indicator never appears.

Why You Need This

How this feature boosts your daily productivity

Tmux's default mouse mode intercepts scroll and selection in ways that confuse users coming from native terminals. Native Selection mode makes scroll and select work the way you expect without giving up tmux's session management underneath.

How It Works

Get started in 4 simple steps

1

Open a Terminal

Click "+" to create a new terminal tab. Choose from Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Amp, bash, zsh, or custom shells.

2

Arrange Your Layout

Switch between grid, columns, or fullscreen with one click. Drag dividers to resize panes to your preference.

3

Run Your Agents

Start your AI agents with pre-configured prompts or type freely. Watch them work in real-time with status indicators.

4

Monitor & Manage

Use the Terminal Dashboard for a bird's-eye view. Sessions persist across restarts so you never lose context.

Without 1DevTool

The manual way vs. the 1DevTool way

The Hard Way

# Search for the right tool online

Why It Matters

The productivity impact of having terminal & ai agents built into your workspace

Zero Context Switching

All your AI agents and terminals live in one window. No more alt-tabbing between 5 different terminal apps.

Visual Status Tracking

Color-coded tabs and the Kanban dashboard tell you which agents are done, running, or need attention — at a glance.

Persistent Sessions

Tmux-backed persistence means your terminal state survives crashes and restarts. Never lose scrollback history again.

Flexible Arrangements

One-click layouts adapt to your task: grid for monitoring, columns for comparing, fullscreen for deep focus.
