send_text

Type text strings into terminal applications through the tui-mcp server. Send exact text input with newline support for Enter key simulation.

Instructions

Type a string of characters into the TUI app. The text is sent exactly as provided - MCP JSON handles escaping, so do not double-escape. To type a literal backslash, send one backslash. Include a trailing newline (\n) if you want to press Enter after the text. Use send_keys instead for special keys like Ctrl+C or arrow keys.
