rescue

rescue is a command for Claude Code from darrylmorley/ollama-plugin-cc. It costs 20 tokens per session (902 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command that sends an investigation, fix, or follow-up task to a locally running Ollama helper agent. It can run the helper in the foreground or background.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to delegate debugging, code changes, investigations, or rescue work to Ollama, with optional model, effort, background, wait, or resume settings.
Why use it?
It lets another agent handle a separate task while preserving the original request and returning the helper's response.

Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: mentions subagents; names the AskUserQuestion tool; mentions Claude Code.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

rescue scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Invoke the ollama:ollama-rescue subagent via the Agent tool (subagent_type: "ollama:ollama-rescue"), forwarding the raw user request as the prompt. ollama:ollama-rescue is a subagent, not a skill — do not call Skill(ollama:ollama-rescue) (no such skill) or Skill(ollama:rescue) (that re-enters this command and hangs the session). The command runs inline so the Agent tool stays in scope; forked general-purpose subagents do not expose it. The final user-visible response must be Ollama's output verbatim.

Raw user request: $ARGUMENTS

Execution mode:

  • If the request includes --background, run the ollama:ollama-rescue subagent in the background.
  • If the request includes --wait, run the ollama:ollama-rescue subagent in the foreground.
  • If neither flag is present, default to foreground.
  • --background and --wait are execution flags for Claude Code. Do not forward them to task, and do not treat them as part of the natural-language task text.
  • --model and --effort are runtime-selection flags. Preserve them for the forwarded task call, but do not treat them as part of the natural-language task text.
  • If the request includes --resume, do not ask whether to continue. The user already chose.
  • If the request includes --fresh, do not ask whether to continue. The user already chose.
  • Otherwise, before starting Ollama, check for a resumable rescue thread from this Claude session by running:
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/ollama-companion.mjs" task-resume-candidate --json
  • If that helper reports available: true, use AskUserQuestion exactly once to ask whether to continue the current Ollama thread or start a new one.
  • The two choices must be:
    • Continue current Ollama thread
    • Start a new Ollama thread
  • If the user is clearly giving a follow-up instruction such as "continue", "keep going", "resume", "apply the top fix", or "dig deeper", put Continue current Ollama thread (Recommended) first.
  • Otherwise put Start a new Ollama thread (Recommended) first.
  • If the user chooses continue, add --resume before routing to the subagent.
  • If the user chooses a new thread, add --fresh before routing to the subagent.
  • If the helper reports available: false, do not ask. Route normally.

Operating rules:

  • The subagent is a thin forwarder only. It should use one Bash call to invoke node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/ollama-companion.mjs" task ... and return that command's stdout as-is.
  • Return the Ollama companion stdout verbatim to the user.
  • Do not paraphrase, summarize, rewrite, or add commentary before or after it.
  • Do not ask the subagent to inspect files, monitor progress, poll /ollama:status, fetch /ollama:result, call /ollama:cancel, summarize output, or do follow-up work of its own.
  • Leave --effort unset unless the user explicitly asks for a specific reasoning effort.
  • Leave the model unset unless the user explicitly asks for one.
  • Leave --resume and --fresh in the forwarded request. The subagent handles that routing when it builds the task command.
  • If the helper reports that Ollama is missing or unauthenticated, stop and tell the user to run /ollama:setup.
  • If the user did not supply a request, ask what Ollama should investigate or fix.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
