What this skill does

Drive Codeman, the session manager this agent is running inside, over its HTTP API, from any agent CLI (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Antigravity, Grok Build, DeepSeek Harness, OMP): list sessions, start worker sessions in any installed CLI, send them prompts, block until they finish (wait / wait-output / send-and-wait), read their output, and clean up; where available, message claude workers directly (Claude Code cross-session messaging).

When it triggers

  • Use when asked to orchestrate or parallelize work across Codeman sessions, get a second opinion from another CLI or model, watch another session, or start and manage workers.
