If you have a Trimetric, then the battery end of the shunt is one of the "buss bars" you can have three neg links from, one to each battery.
Now you just need to have a positive "buss" to take the three positive links, plus whatever else. The inverter positive terminal and a short wire from that to the "buss" can be a common point for those three plus inverter, that's four, now add solar pos and converter pos, the breakaway pos, the slide pos, the jacks pos, and the 7-pin pos.
So you need a buss to take those ten positive wires and let the inner end of the Trimetric shunt take all the negs (except the three battery negs)
You need appropriate size fuses on those positives, but you can have some wires "share" a fuse just before the buss connection
