Herdr has been my daily driver for about a month now. It cant auto-name sessions like every other multiplexer though. That one stupid feature is so valuable I'm considering moving on.

I've had no problem just asking an agent to do this. Just run !herdr --skill and ask any agent tab to rename all the sessions to something meaningful (use a cheap model if cost is an issue).

Or vibe code a script for this. I use pi so I just use a random cached session for this and rewind using /tree after (using local models so I don't care much about tokens).

Where are you looking to move to? I agree that it seems like an obvious feature to be missing.

Eagerly awaiting https://www.superlogical.com/ TBH.

Thanks for mentioning it. Glad to see it's by @mitchellh. Excited! Personally I'm a fan of the inline textbased window(tab)/session style in Tmux and not native tab bars etc. but we'll see.

They have a plugin ecosystem, one of which is auto-named sessions. I imagine implementing your own wouldn't be too difficult either, if that one doesn't meet your standards of trust.

You could even just make a harness hook in Claude or Codex after installing the Herdr skill, telling the LLM itself to update names on start.

Heck, I think this works via the plugin system?

Look at that: https://github.com/kryptamine/herdr-auto-title

I must say I didn't know this existed. I looked into having the LLM name herdr sessions but found that tabs aren't addressable - the agent doesn't know which tab it's running in to target it for renaming.

The plugin is interesting and the defaults are terrible, but I think I could get what I need here. Thanks for your comment!
