`exit_copy_mode`

Exit copy mode in a tmux pane.

Returns the pane to normal mode. Use after scrolling through scrollback history.

MCP request method: tools/call Send exit_copy_mode as the tool name, with the arguments below.

Arguments#

pane_id? = null (string | null) #

Pane ID (e.g. ‘%1’).
session_id? = null (string | null) #

Session ID for pane resolution.
session_name? = null (string | null) #

Session name for pane resolution.
socket_name? = null (string | null) #

tmux socket name.
window_id? = null (string | null) #

Window ID for pane resolution.

No other arguments are accepted.

Result#

Returns object

is_caller? = null (boolean | null) #

MCP caller identity for this pane. True when the pane matches the caller’s TMUX_PANE and lives on the same tmux socket as the caller’s TMUX (verified via socket realpath); False otherwise, including the case where the pane id matches but the socket does not or cannot be proven to; None when the MCP process is not running inside tmux at all.
pane_active? = null (string | null) #

Active flag (‘1’ or ‘0’)
pane_at_bottom? = null (boolean | null) #

True when the pane touches the window’s bottom edge.
pane_at_left? = null (boolean | null) #

True when the pane touches the window’s left edge.
pane_at_right? = null (boolean | null) #

True when the pane touches the window’s right edge.
pane_at_top? = null (boolean | null) #

True when the pane touches the window’s top edge. tmux accounts for pane-border-status here, so the top row may be 1 instead of 0 when the status bar is at the top.
pane_bottom? = null (integer | null) #

Bottom edge row (inclusive), window-relative.
pane_current_command? = null (string | null) #

Running command
pane_current_path? = null (string | null) #

Current working directory
pane_height? = null (string | null) #

Height in rows
pane_id (string) #

Pane ID (e.g. ‘%1’)
pane_index? = null (string | null) #

Pane index
pane_left? = null (integer | null) #

Left edge column, 0-based and window-relative.
pane_pid? = null (string | null) #

Process ID
pane_right? = null (integer | null) #

Right edge column (inclusive), window-relative.
pane_title? = null (string | null) #

Pane title
pane_top? = null (integer | null) #

Top edge row, 0-based and window-relative.
pane_tty? = null (string | null) #

TTY device path of the pane (e.g. ‘/dev/pts/5’).
pane_width? = null (string | null) #

Width in columns
session_id? = null (string | null) #

Parent session ID
window_id? = null (string | null) #

Parent window ID
