Agent Chat for Tabby — exposes terminal tabs over MCP so an AI agent in one tab can send input to another
Readme
tabby-agent-chat
MCP server for Tabby. Lets AI agents (e.g. Claude Code, Codex) running in different Tabby tabs send each other input.
Use case
You have several agents running in different Tabby tabs. Ask any one of them to relay a message to another:
Tell the agent working on the refactor that the tests are failing on master.
It calls list_tabs, identifies the target by the process running in each tab,
and uses send_to_tab to type the message into that tab's stdin.
Install
1. Install the plugin in Tabby. Settings → Plugins → search "agent-chat" → install. Restart Tabby.
2. Add the MCP to your agent. In any Tabby tab, run your agent and ask it:
Install the tabby-agent-chat MCP. See $TABBY_AGENT_CHAT_INSTALL_INSTRUCTIONS
The plugin exports that env var into every shell Tabby spawns. It points at an
INSTALL.md shipped inside the plugin.
3. Restart the agent session.
