cmux history

You close a terminal tab to clear clutter, then realize you needed it. Or you close a whole workspace and lose the agent that was mid task. cmux now keeps a history of what you closed and what you focused, so getting it back takes one shortcut.

Reopen what you closed

Press Cmd+Shift+T to reopen the last thing you closed. It works for terminal tabs, browser tabs, workspaces, and windows, and restores them one at a time in the order you closed them. Each surface comes back where it was, with its panes intact.

Agent sessions come back too

History also reopens closed agent sessions. Reopen a Claude Code, Codex, or OpenCode session and it resumes where it left off. Run cmux hooks setup once so cmux can track agent sessions, then they reopen like everything else.

cmux hooks setup

This builds on cmux session restore, which resumes supported agents through their own native resume commands.

Jump back to where you were

The back and forward buttons in the titlebar, or Cmd+[ and Cmd+], jump to the previous and next workspace or window you were working in, the same way back and forward work in a browser.

The full history pane

When you need more than the last item, open the full History pane: a searchable, day grouped view of everything you closed and focused, with timestamps and a Clear Closed action.

See the keyboard shortcuts for the full list, including how to rebind history navigation.
