add hexai-tmux-edit: tmux popup editor for AI agent prompts
New tool that opens $EDITOR in a tmux popup for composing longer prompts when working with AI CLI agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Amp, Aider, etc.). Captures existing prompt text from the target pane, pre-fills the editor, and sends edited text back via tmux send-keys. Config-driven agent detection via regex patterns in [tmux_edit] config section. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
