┏━━━ § 02 / 05 ━ WHAT IT DOES ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓
FOUR THINGS · DONE WELL

A multiplexer is a tool. Quil is a contract.

The contract: your machine rebooting is not your problem. Neither is re-explaining context to Claude Code, re-pasting your last screenshot, or rebuilding five SSH tunnels by hand. Four capabilities, each load-bearing, each opinionated.

◇ 01 Reboot-proof sessions

Tabs, panes, working directories, and layout ratios snapshot continuously to ~/.quil/workspace.json. Type quil after any restart — everything snaps back in under 30 seconds. Ghost buffers replay the last 500 lines per pane while shells re-initialise.

← PERSISTENCE
◇ 02 Claude Code resumes itself

Each AI pane owns a UUID at spawn. On restart, Quil runs claude --resume <id> automatically. No copy-paste, no context rebuild, no re-explaining what you were doing. Your conversation is where you left it.

← AI CONTINUITY
◇ 03 Typed panes, not shells

A Claude Code pane resumes differently than an SSH tunnel, which resumes differently than a stripe listen. Five types built in — terminal, claude-code, opencode (beta), ssh, stripe. Yours in 30 lines of TOML. No compile, no restart, hot-reload on save.

← TOML PLUGINS
◇ 04 MCP server for agents

Run quil mcp and any MCP-capable client — Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code — can list panes, read output, send keystrokes, and snapshot your workspace. 17 tools. Your terminal becomes addressable by AI.

CLICK ANY PANE · TRY A COMMAND

Four panes. Four types. One workspace.

A real Quil layout — a Claude Code session, a live shell, an SSH tunnel, and a Stripe webhook listener. Click a pane to focus it. Everything you see here survives a reboot.

NOT ANOTHER TMUX

Different category.

tmux and Zellij survive network disconnects but not host reboots. WezTerm is a terminal emulator that happens to multiplex. Screen is 38 years old. Quil is a workflow orchestrator that treats your terminal as the source of truth.

vs · tmux The 2007 standard. Still the answer if you just need tabs on a remote host. → compare vs · Zellij The modern Rust option. Friendly UX, WASM plugins, no reboot story. → compare vs · WezTerm A terminal emulator with multiplexer bolted on. Use both — they complement. → compare vs · GNU Screen 1987. Still on every Unix host. Not a dev-experience tool anymore. → compare
