```
tmux.Session.OpenControl(ctx: context.Context, options: ConnectionOptions) -> (*Connection, error)
```

OpenControl opens terminal control-mode transport to the receiver's daemon. The returned connection owns its lanes and must be closed. A receiver already bound to a connection cannot be rebound. Before tmux 3.6, destroying the attached session follows that session's detach-on-destroy policy and may end the connection.
