In their own words

amux

amux is a terminal multiplexer for shared workflows in which people use keybindings and agents use CLI commands in the same panes. Users can create and arrange panes, manage windows, zoom panes, and broadcast keystrokes to multiple panes. Its CLI offers structured JSON session capture, blocking waits, and push-based events without requiring an SDK or language-specific library. Pane history stays on the server and can survive detach and reattach, server reload, and crash recovery; the default scrollback is 5,000 lines per pane. A built-in mailbox lets panes send, read, reply to, and acknowledge messages, with recipients checking an inbox instead of receiving automatic PTY input. An optional local MCP server over stdio exposes mailbox tools. Remote panes and windows can be mirrored over SSH, forwarding input and streaming remote PTY output. The repository documents Claude Code and Codex integrations, including mailbox-drain hook recipes. amux is MIT licensed and free, with installation through a shell script, Homebrew, or go install. The first server start installs a terminfo entry and requires ncurses tic. It runs on Linux and macOS, but does not implement every tmux feature, including session groups and advanced hooks.

LibreBooking

LibreBooking is an open-source resource scheduling system for organizations that manage reservations. It supports bookings across multiple resources, waitlists and recurring bookings, with check-in for reservations. Role-based access controls, reservation quotas and credits, and granular usage reports help organizations manage access and track use. The interface is described as mobile-friendly and responsive, with custom themes and color schemes. Calendar integration with Outlook and Thunderbird uses ICS; authentication guides cover LDAP, Active Directory, OAuth2 and SAML. An optional RESTful JSON API supports third-party integrations, automation or client applications, and the project provides documentation for custom plugins. Organizations can install a prebuilt release, deploy with Docker, or install manually. Manual installation requires PHP 8.2 or later, Apache 2.4 or later, and MySQL 8.0 or MariaDB 10.6 or later; other web servers are not currently supported or tested. LibreBooking is free, licensed under GPL-3.0, and available for Linux, self-hosted and web use. The README warns that versions earlier than 7.0.0 have a critical vulnerability that can permit unauthenticated administrator account takeover; it says to upgrade to 7.0.0 or later immediately.
