neovim-remote is a command-line tool that lets users control existing Neovim processes from the shell. It provides an executable called nvr, which supports remote file opening, command execution, key sending, and expression evaluation. The tool solves a common terminal workflow problem by opening files inside an already running Neovim session instead of starting nested editor instances. It can be used from shell commands, terminal buffers, scripts, and Git editor workflows. If no target Neovim server is available, it can start a new process depending on configuration. The project is especially useful for Neovim users who want editor reuse, remote control, and smoother command-line integration.
