Pure Emerald Level IndicatorsFrequently Asked Questions
FAQPage SchemaHow to install agent-mux?โผ
Run `npx skills add buildoak/agent-mux --all -g -y` in your terminal to install the skill globally. The agent-mux binary itself can also be installed via Homebrew or Go as described in the README.
What does agent-mux do?โผ
It is a cross-engine dispatch layer that sends coding tasks to Codex, Claude, Gemini, agy, or Grok through one CLI and one JSON result contract. Worker identities live in simple markdown prompt files with YAML frontmatter.
How do I run a coding task on a different engine?โผ
Use a profile flag like `agent-mux -P=lifter -C /repo "Fix the retry logic"` or override the engine directly with `-E gemini -m gemini-3.1-pro-preview`. Profiles resolve engine, model, effort, and timeout from a single markdown file.
Can agent-mux recover timed-out or failed jobs?โผ
Yes. Every dispatch writes durable artifacts, and you can resume with `--recover=<id>` to continue from prior context. You can also steer, nudge, or abort running workers mid-flight.
Do I need coding experience to use agent-mux?โผ
Basic terminal familiarity helps, but your AI agent handles the dispatch commands for you based on plain-English requests. Engine CLIs like Codex or Claude must be installed and authenticated separately.
