Delete buffer

delete_buffer

delete_buffer

mutating tool

Delete an MCP-owned buffer.

Returns:

str

Use when you’re done with a buffer and want to free server-side state. Always call this when the buffer’s purpose is complete — tmux servers outlive the MCP process, so leaked buffers persist across MCP restarts.

Side effects: Removes the named buffer from the tmux server. Subsequent paste_buffer calls against the deleted name return ToolError.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
buffer_name	str	yes	—	Must match the full MCP-namespaced form.
socket_name	str	no	—	tmux socket name.
