 ## tmuxp 1.73.0 (2026-06-28)
 
 tmuxp 1.73.0 makes the workspace build step pluggable and tunable. A workspace can now build through a third-party builder selected by registered entry-point name or Python import path, and a new `workspace_builder_options` catalog controls the pane-readiness wait per workspace. The built-in builder stays the default, so existing workspaces keep working — though the new `pane_readiness: auto` default skips the prompt wait on non-zsh shells. See {ref}`custom-workspace-builders` for the guide.
