I walk you through my full terminal-first setup whichs integrates neovim and tmux with AI coding agents such as claude code and opencode in an optimal way. With tmux you can run multiple AI coding agents in parallel and using Neovim you easily edit generated code. In 2026 it is time to quit cursor, vscode and start using CLI tools to create an optimal AI dev workflow. if you're thinking about switching from VS Code or Cursor to a keyboard-driven terminal workflow, this video covers everything you need to get started with tmux and neovim.
