tmux-restore is a tmux plugin that persists sessions across reboots, with special support for resuming AI coding agent conversations (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, etc.) mid-session. It combines tmux-resurrect, tmux-continuum, and custom adapters to save state on a timer and at shutdown, restoring agent conversations and avoiding re-running risky commands. The project is a neat integration of existing tools rather than a new paradigm, and its focus on AI agent session continuity is timely.

Target audience: backend devs, devops, developers using AI coding agents in terminal workflows
