Kill pane¶

`kill_pane`¶

kill_pane

Kill (close) a tmux pane. Requires exact pane_id (e.g. ‘%5’).

Use when you’re done with a specific terminal and want to remove it without affecting sibling panes.

Avoid when you want to remove the entire window — use kill_window.

Side effects: Destroys the pane. Not reversible.

Example:

{
  "tool": "kill_pane",
  "arguments": {
    "pane_id": "%1"
  }
}

Response (string):

Pane killed: %1

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
`pane_id`	str	yes	—	Pane ID (e.g. ‘%1’). Required — no fallback resolution.
`socket_name`	str	no	—	tmux socket name.
