Launch a live conversation mirror in a split terminal pane. Use when the user can't see scrollback, lost context after /clear or /compact, or asks what was said earlier.
Launch tower in a split pane to mirror this session in real-time.
When you detect these situations, tell the user you're opening tower in a split pane so they can see the full conversation history, then follow the steps below.
Detect the user's terminal by running:
bash ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/detect-terminal.sh
Launch tower in a split pane:
bash "${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/launch-pane.sh"
If the output contains "MANUAL_SPLIT", the terminal doesn't support programmatic splits. Show the user the manual instructions from the output.
If the launch succeeded, confirm to the user that tower is running in the split pane.
Run the setup first:
bash ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/setup.sh
Then retry the launch.
