What it does
thoo-claude-code-zellij-status is a one-plugin Claude Code bundle that wires zjstatus into Zellij so you can see what each Claude Code pane is doing without clicking through tabs. Solo builders who run two or more agent sessions in one terminal workspace get a compact operations view instead of guessing which pane is idle, blocked, or still streaming. Install it when you already use Zellij and want observability over concurrent Claude Code runs rather than another coding skill or MCP integration. It does not change how the agent reasons; it surfaces session activity so you can rebalance prompts, kill stuck jobs, or spot when a pane finished. Expect CLI-level setup aligned with Zellij and zjstatus on your machine.
Highlights
- Streams Claude Code activity across multiple Zellij panes in real time via zjstatus
- Single-plugin bundle focused on terminal multiplexer visibility, not agent logic
- Pairs Zellij workflow with Claude Code for parallel session ops
- Lightweight monitor for indie builders juggling several agent panes
Why builders use it
Running multiple Claude Code panes in Zellij makes it hard to tell which session is active, stuck, or done without manually switching panes.
You get a single real-time status picture of all Claude Code panes so you can manage parallel agent work without constant pane hopping.
