Manual configuration

Add to your ~/.claude/settings.json:

    "happy-ryo": {
      "source": {
        "source": "github",

Uninstallation

/plugin uninstall wezterm-panes@happy-ryo

Usage

/wezterm-panes:control

Or just ask Claude Code in natural language, e.g. "open a new pane to the right with Claude Code".

Available Operations

• List panes — Show all WezTerm panes with their IDs, sizes, and titles
• Split pane — Create a new pane in any direction (right, left, top, bottom)
• Close pane — Kill a specific pane by ID
• Launch Claude Code — Split a new pane and start Claude Code with automatic dialog handling
• Send text/keys — Send text or keystrokes (arrows, Enter, etc.) to a specific pane
• Read pane content — Get the text content of a pane

Launch Parameters

By default, Claude Code is launched with the following flags:

claude --dangerously-load-development-channels server:claude-peers --dangerously-skip-permissions

• --dangerously-load-development-channels server:claude-peers — Enables peer communication between Claude Code instances
• --dangerously-skip-permissions — Skips tool permission prompts so the launched instance can operate autonomously

These flags are defined in skills/control/SKILL.md. If you have concerns about the permission model, you can fork this repository and modify the launch command to suit your needs.
