SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a fast, low-overhead way for external tools and AI agents to interact with a running agent-hand instance, enabling programmatic control over sessions, canvas operations, and hook event handling without the overhead of the main TUI application.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Fast IPC: Utilizes a lightweight companion binary (agent-hand-bridge) for quick communication via Unix sockets.
  • Multiple Interaction Modes: Supports hook event processing, canvas manipulation, session management, and status queries.
  • Use Case: An AI agent needs to automatically create new project sessions, add tasks to its workflow canvas, and respond to prompts from other tools. agent-hand-bridge allows the agent to do this efficiently in the background.

Quick Start

Use agent-hand-bridge to list all current sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions about bridge-overview

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate terminal session management for AI agents programmatically?

Automate session management by using a lightweight bridge binary to interact with a running terminal instance via Unix sockets. This enables external tools to control sessions, manipulate canvases, and process hook events efficiently in the background.

What is the best way to handle hook event delivery for automated AI workflows?

Handle hook event delivery by utilizing a low-overhead companion binary that processes events through Unix socket IPC. This bypasses the main TUI overhead, allowing AI agents to quickly respond to prompts from other external tools.

Can I use Unix sockets for canvas manipulation in automated session environments?

Yes, you can use Unix sockets for canvas manipulation. The lightweight bridge supports multiple interaction modes including canvas operations, enabling AI agents to programmatically add tasks to workflow canvases without TUI overhead.

Does the agent-hand-bridge binary require the main TUI application to run?

The bridge binary interacts with a running agent-hand instance but bypasses the overhead of the main TUI application. It provides fast IPC for external tools to query status, manage sessions, and process hook events independently.

How to query session status programmatically without launching a full terminal interface?

Query session status programmatically by sending requests through the lightweight bridge binary via Unix sockets. This mode retrieves current session statuses quickly without launching the full TUI application.
