VisitConmux vs RMUX
What both publish
| Fact | Conmux | RMUX |
|---|---|---|
| Integrations | Conmux provides a Rust crate and CLI plus a Tauri GUI shell, and its README identifies Conflux as a separate multi-agent workbench built on it. | The project documents a ratatui integration widget and a Claude Code teammate mode that runs Claude inside a local RMUX workspace. |
| License | The project is dual-licensed under MIT or Apache 2.0. | RMUX is dual-licensed under MIT or Apache License 2.0. |
| Security | The project says it is local-only, has no accounts or telemetry, and uses named-pipe DACL and remote-client protections; it also notes these do not stop malicious code running as the same user. | During Web Share, shells and PTYs stay on the local daemon while the browser decrypts encrypted terminal updates locally; tunnels carry encrypted frames. |
| Security boundary | The local named pipe uses a DACL limited to the current user's SID, rejects remote clients, and includes first-instance squatting protection. | The maker says tunnels see handshake metadata and encrypted frames but cannot read keystrokes, PINs, raw tokens, or terminal cells. |

Pick Conmux if…
Conmux suits Windows users who want supervised CLI workflows without a full IDE, including work across native programs, PowerShell, and WSL. It is also relevant to developers needing programmable pane control.
Pick RMUX if…
RMUX suits developers who want persistent local terminal sessions or programmatic control through an SDK. Its browser sharing and access roles may also suit people who need to share a pane or session with others.
