val request_detach_client_at :
  ?cancel:Cancellation.t ->
  t -> Libtmux.Client_name.t -> (unit, Libtmux.Error.t) result
```

Request detachment of the client currently bearing this name. Success confirms request processing, not peer exit. Detaching the library's own primary lane can lose the response and retire its generation.

## Parameters

- `cancel?` (`Cancellation.t`)
- `arg1` (`t`)
- `arg2` (`Libtmux.Client_name.t`)

## tmux command

The tmux commands behind `request_detach_client_at`.

## tmux C API
