LiteHarness inbox management coordinates polling, watching, and sending messages between active agents, needed when automatic CLI hooks are unavailable and cross-CLI messaging must remain functional during Codex sessions.

How do I discover active agents and send messages in a LiteHarness session?▼

Discover active agents and send messages by executing the bundled discover and send workflows, which rely on a per-repo agent identity and local runtime to coordinate cross-CLI messaging without automatic hooks.
