+##### Using the SSH multiplexer programmatically
+
+To use the SSH multiplexer programmatically, your SSH client library will need
+to support one of two things:
+
+- The ability to use a ProxyCommand with FDPass. If so, you can use the
+  `ssh_config` file generated by `tbot` to configure the SSH client.
+- The ability to accept an open socket to use as the connection to the SSH
+  server. You will then need to manually connect to the socket and send the
+  multiplexer request.
+
+The `v1.sock` Unix Domain Socket implements the V1 Teleport SSH multiplexer
+protocol. The client must first send a short request message to indicate the
+desired target host and port, terminated with a null byte. The multiplexer will
+then begin to forward traffic to the target host and port. The client can then
+make an SSH connection.

 ### Destinations
 
 A destination is somewhere that `tbot` can read and write artifacts.
