# 1. Inspect Panes & Status
zswarm list                                     # List active panes
zswarm status                                   # Check status: busy | waiting | idle | exited

# 2. Spawn Panes & Worktrees
zswarm spawn --command "claude" --name reviewer # Spawn agent pane
zswarm spawn --command "codex" --worktree feature-auth --name auth-dev   # Isolated git worktree pane

# 3. Pass Prompts & Input
zswarm send --to reviewer --body "Review changes in src/" --submit auto
zswarm keys --to reviewer --key "Ctrl c"        # Send special keys / interrupts

# 4. Read Outputs & Wait
zswarm dump --to reviewer --max 4000            # Read recent screen tail
zswarm tail --to reviewer                       # Incremental read since last check
zswarm wait --to reviewer --match "DONE"        # Block until pattern matched or pane idle

# 5. Coordinate Crew & Sync Signals
zswarm broadcast --all --group builder --body "Run test suite"  # group matches pane title or command
zswarm signal --channel tests --payload ok      # Send signal to durable channel
zswarm await --channel tests --count 3          # Wait for 3 worker signals
