What problem does it solve?
AI coding agents waste the majority of their runtime waiting for slow tools like web searches, builds, and API calls, consuming expensive LLM compute while idle.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Non-blocking execution model: Spawn parallel timed sub-agents called remoras for any operation expected to take longer than 30 seconds.
- Pilot fish pre-analysis: Opportunistically pre-draft results when early remoras complete while others are still running.
- Universal compatibility: Works with Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Windsurf, Aider, and OpenClaw.
- Progress tracking: Chat-friendly Unicode progress bars show remora status in real time.
Quick Start
Use the shark skill to decompose your task and spawn background remoras for any slow operation while continuing to reason in parallel.
