SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the friction of manually launching coding agents and chore-like task orchestration by enabling background, CLI-driven coding sessions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Background execution of coding agents (Codex CLI, Claude Code, OpenCode, Pi Coding Agent) to automate repetitive programming tasks.
  • Session management using commands to monitor progress, feed inputs, and terminate tasks.
  • Supports both non-interactive background work and interactive sessions via tmux for advanced workflows.

Quick Start

Install prerequisites and start a background session in a target directory: SCRATCH=$(mktemp -d) bash workdir:$SCRATCH background:true command:"codex exec --full-auto 'Build a small feature'"

  1. Create a working area and start a background agent: SCRATCH=$(mktemp -d) bash workdir:$SCRATCH background:true command:"codex exec --full-auto 'Build a small feature'"

  2. Monitor progress: process action:log sessionId:XXX

  3. Send input if prompted: process action:write sessionId:XXX data:"y"

  4. Kill the session if needed: process action:kill sessionId:XXX

Frequently Asked Questions about coding-agent

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I run Claude Code in the background to automate coding tasks?

You can run Claude Code in the background by executing it within a Bash environment using non-interactive background sessions. This skill orchestrates autonomous coding agents, allowing you to automate code generation and batch reviews without manual intervention.

Can I use tmux for interactive sessions with Codex CLI?

Yes, tmux supports interactive sessions for Codex CLI. This skill enables both non-interactive background runs for automated scripting and interactive tmux sessions for advanced workflows where you need to monitor progress and feed inputs directly.

What coding agents can I automate besides Claude Code and Codex CLI?

Besides Claude Code and Codex CLI, you can automate coding tasks using OpenCode or Pi Coding Agent. This skill manages background execution for these agents, applying them to development tasks like code generation and batch reviews in isolated workspaces.

How do I monitor progress and send input to a background coding agent?

You monitor progress by checking the session log and send input by writing data to the specific session ID. If a task requires termination or goes wrong, you can kill the active background coding agent session using its session ID.

Do I need a specific environment to run background coding agents?

You need a Bash environment and the relevant coding agents installed to run background coding agents. This skill executes commands in isolated workspaces, requiring these prerequisites to automate repetitive programming tasks and manage sessions effectively.

What is the best way to automate batch code reviews using CLI agents?

The best way to automate batch code reviews is by running CLI coding agents like OpenCode or Codex in non-interactive background sessions. This skill eliminates manual launching friction, orchestrating isolated workspaces to execute automated scripting and reviews.
