    I would assume this is due to tmux running in its own bootstrap
    namespace, similar to the problem of not being able to access the
    pasteboard services from within tmux.
    
    A good explanation can be found here:

Thank you. Installing tmux-pasteboard and configuring tmux to use reattach-to-user-namespace allows me to use launchctl setenv within tmux. And I’ve added the Deprecated Daemonomicon to my reading list.

Something like tmux-reattach-to-user-namespace might be a better package name, it seems to me.
