SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Spawn an AI coding agent in a new terminal window to streamline starting a multi-agent coding environment, enabling you to run Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, OpenCode, or Copilot from a single workflow without leaving your current workspace.

Core Features & Use Cases

Spawn a chosen agent in a new terminal and follow its cookbook instructions to perform tasks.
Supports multiple agents (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, OpenCode, Copilot) and defaults to Claude Code when unspecified.
Integrates a safety-conscious workflow: verify help, read appropriate cookbook, and capture agent output for later processing.

Quick Start

Spawn a new terminal agent using the default Claude Code configuration and follow its cookbook to complete the setup.

FAQPage Schema

How do I spawn an AI coding agent in a new terminal window?▼

To spawn an AI coding agent in a new terminal window, use the fork_terminal tool. It opens a separate terminal to run your chosen agent, reading the agent-specific cookbook to ensure correct command invocation and safety checks.

Can I use this workflow to launch Codex, Gemini, or Copilot instead of Claude Code?▼

Yes, you can launch Codex, Gemini, Cursor, OpenCode, or Copilot. The workflow supports selecting among these agents and defaults to Claude Code when an agent is not explicitly specified during the terminal spawn process.

What is a multi-agent coding environment and when do I need it?▼

A multi-agent coding environment allows you to run different AI coding assistants like Claude Code and Copilot simultaneously. You need it to streamline automated coding tasks across various agents without leaving your current workspace.

Does spawning a new terminal agent require any specific dependencies?▼

No specific dependencies are required to spawn a new terminal agent. The capability relies solely on the fork_terminal tool and reads agent-specific cookbooks to execute the correct command invocation and safety checks.

What is the best way to automate coding tasks across multiple AI agents?▼

The best way to automate coding tasks across multiple AI agents is using a unified terminal workflow. It spawns your chosen agent in a new terminal, applying cookbook instructions to verify help and capture output for processing.

Are there limitations when launching AI agents from an existing terminal workspace?▼

When launching AI agents from an existing workspace, the workflow is limited to supported agents like Claude Code and Cursor. It relies on agent-specific cookbooks to enforce safety checks, capturing output strictly for later processing.
