+# Async Support
+
+`libtmux` provides **first-class async support** for non-blocking tmux operations. Execute multiple tmux commands concurrently for **2-3x performance improvements**.
+
+**Two async patterns available:**
+
+**Pattern A: Async methods** (`.acmd()`) - Use with existing Server/Session/Window/Pane objects:
+```python
+import asyncio
+import libtmux
+
+async def main():
+ server = libtmux.Server()
+ # Execute commands concurrently
+ results = await asyncio.gather(
+ server.acmd('new-window', '-n', 'window1'),
+ server.acmd('new-window', '-n', 'window2'),
+ server.acmd('new-window', '-n', 'window3'),
+ )
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+**Pattern B: Async-first** (`common_async` module) - Direct async command execution:
+```python
+import asyncio
+from libtmux.common_async import tmux_cmd_async
+
+async def main():
+ # Execute multiple commands concurrently
+ results = await asyncio.gather(
+ tmux_cmd_async('list-sessions'),
+ tmux_cmd_async('list-windows'),
+ tmux_cmd_async('list-panes'),
+ )
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```

+# Async Examples
+
+All the sync examples above can be executed asynchronously using `.acmd()` methods:
+
+```python
+>>> import asyncio
+>>> async def async_example():
+... # Create window asynchronously
+... result = await session.acmd('new-window', '-P', '-F#{window_id}')
+... window_id = result.stdout[0]
+... print(f"Created window: {window_id}")
+...
+... # Execute multiple commands concurrently
+... results = await asyncio.gather(
+... session.acmd('list-windows'),
+... session.acmd('list-panes', '-s'),
+... )
+... print(f"Windows: {len(results[0].stdout)} | Panes: {len(results[1].stdout)}")
+>>> asyncio.run(async_example())
+Created window: @2
+Windows: 2 | Panes: 2
+```
+
+Use `common_async` for direct async command execution:
+
+```python
+>>> async def direct_async():
+... # Execute commands concurrently for better performance
+... results = await asyncio.gather(
+... server.acmd('list-sessions'),
+... server.acmd('list-windows', '-a'),
+... server.acmd('list-panes', '-a'),
+... )
+... print(f"Executed {len(results)} commands concurrently")
+... return all(r.returncode == 0 for r in results)
+>>> asyncio.run(direct_async())
+Executed 3 commands concurrently
+True
+```
+
+**Performance:** Async operations execute **2-3x faster** when running multiple commands concurrently.

+libtmux.common_async
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This is the async-first implementation. The sync version (common.py) is
+auto-generated from this file using tools/async_to_sync.py.
+
+Async Support Patterns
+----------------------
+
+libtmux provides two complementary async patterns:
+
+**Pattern A**: `.acmd()` methods on Server/Session/Window/Pane objects:
+
+>>> import asyncio
+>>> async def example():
+... # Uses 'server' fixture from conftest
+... result = await server.acmd('list-sessions')
+... return isinstance(result.stdout, list)
+>>> asyncio.run(example())
+True
+
+**Pattern B**: Direct async execution with `tmux_cmd_async()`:
+
+>>> async def example_b():
+... # Uses test server socket for isolation
+... result = await tmux_cmd_async('-L', server.socket_name, 'list-sessions')
+... return isinstance(result.stdout, list)
+>>> asyncio.run(example_b())
+True
+
+Both patterns preserve 100% of the synchronous API. See the quickstart guide
+for more information: https://libtmux.git-pull.com/quickstart_async.html
+
+Performance
+-----------
+
+Async provides significant performance benefits for concurrent operations:
+
+>>> async def concurrent():
+... # 2-3x faster than sequential execution
+... sock = server.socket_name
+... results = await asyncio.gather(
+... tmux_cmd_async('-L', sock, 'list-sessions'),
+... tmux_cmd_async('-L', sock, 'list-windows', '-a'),
+... tmux_cmd_async('-L', sock, 'list-panes', '-a'),
+... )
+... return len(results) == 3
+>>> asyncio.run(concurrent())
+True
