sharkd proposes a unix socket that can be used to communicate with a tshark daemon.
It can request to open a file, filter etc:

https://github.com/gcla/termshark/blob/master/docs/FAQ.md#how-does-termshark-use-tshark

this could allow mptcpanalyzer to run a live mode in a better way than reading tshark's stdout ?
