  • Getting the right target pane was the first hurdle. I ended up storing the pane id in a file because of tmux format expansion quirks.
  • The Cursor UI draws a nice box around the prompt, so the prompt line contains a │ and other markers. I had to filter those out and strip the box-drawing characters.
