Open
Conversation
New pane tools: snapshot_pane (rich capture with cursor/mode/scroll metadata), wait_for_content_change (detect any screen change), select_pane (directional navigation), swap_pane, pipe_pane, display_message (tmux format string queries), enter_copy_mode, exit_copy_mode, paste_text (bracketed paste via tmux buffers). New session tool: select_window (navigate by ID/index/direction). New window tool: move_window (reorder or cross-session moves). Models: PaneSnapshot, ContentChangeResult. Tests: 22 new tests covering all new tools.
Document snapshot_pane, wait_for_content_change, display_message, select_pane, select_window, swap_pane, move_window, pipe_pane, enter_copy_mode, exit_copy_mode, and paste_text with usage guidance, JSON examples, and parameter tables following existing patterns. Update tools/index.md with new grid cards and expanded "Which tool do I want?" decision guide covering navigation, layout, scrollback, and paste workflows.
