Zellij support

[rstacruz]

hey @raine, just thought I'd share that I've been playing around with Zellij as an alternative to Tmux. I'm not migrating from tmux to zellij just yet... but it made me think, what if workmux supported alternative muxers rather than tmux? There's also byobu...

I had Claude work on a prototype and it kinda works: main...rstacruz:feat-zellij

Anyway, just leaving it here in case you want to give it a go :)

Not totally against but a bit reluctant at this time for a few reasons:

• Supporting multiple multiplexers adds complexity and slows down experimentation, which is not ideal at this time when the tool is kind of taking its shape. For example, just added status icons to indicate what Claude's state is in each worktree.
• Feature disparity between multiplexers makes things confusing. I would imagine it's the case that tmux and zellij have different capabilities, and taking advantage of those capabilities to the fullest will mean that each supported multiplexer's support will work differently. Managing that code and documentation wise seems a bit painful to me. Case in point: this status icon support would probably look different or be infeasible in zellij.
• I feel I would need to start using zellij to be sufficiently motivated and to be able to vouch for the support to be good. I have been kind of curious about it though

Zellij is way better terminal ai-coding platform:
We can create tabs for agents runtime, or dev process or monitoring dashboard so much could be done. It's always great to have z-work.
