Workspaces for Tabby - Visual split-layout workspace editor
npm install tabby-tabbyspacesVisual workspace editor for Tabby. Create split-layout terminal workspaces without touching config files.
- Visual split editor - Design layouts inline, not in modal dialogs. Split horizontally, vertically, nest to any depth
- Layout toolbar - Select a pane, then split, add adjacent panes, or delete with toolbar buttons
- Per-pane configuration - Set profile, working directory, and startup command for each pane
- One-click launch - Open workspaces instantly from the toolbar dropdown
- Launch on startup - Auto-open multiple workspaces when Tabby starts
- Any shell - Works with Bash, Zsh, PowerShell, Nushell, cmd, WSL, and any other shell Tabby supports
This plugin was written 100% by Claude Code.
Igor Halilovic had the idea and provided product direction. He hates Angular so much (19 years of web dev, wrote his own TypeScript framework) that he didn't look at this code. Not once. He told Claude Code what he wanted, Claude Code built it.
Human provides the what and why. AI handles the how.
Here's the fun part: to test this plugin, we built tabby-mcp - an MCP server that lets Claude Code interact with Tabby via CDP. So the AI that built TabbySpaces can now test it too. Full circle.
