fleet

fleet is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from asheshgoplani/agent-deck. It costs 94 tokens per session (3,922 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A way to launch several independent agent-deck child sessions at once and check their progress from the current session. Agent-deck is a terminal session manager for AI coding agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to divide work among multiple agents, run tasks in parallel, and review the status of the whole group without waiting for every task to finish.
Why use it?
It removes the need to start and monitor each parallel task separately, while keeping the parent session available for supervision.

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

fleet 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 3d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 304 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Fleet

Fan out several independent agent-deck child sessions from inside your current session, keep working, and check their progress on demand — without blocking and without consuming any delivery events.

Requires: the agent-deck session children and launch --assert-done features. If agent-deck session children --help succeeds, you have them.

When to use

Use this when the user wants more than one agent working at once and wants to supervise from the parent session — e.g. "launch 5 sessions to each tackle a file", "fan out these tasks", "spin up a fleet and tell me when they're done".

This differs from the single sub-agent pattern in the agent-deck skill (one child + fire-&-forget / on-demand / blocking retrieval). Fleet is many children + a non-blocking peek across all of them.

Run from inside an agent-deck session. Launching auto-parents each child to the launching session, which is what makes them show up nested in the TUI and routes their completion back to you. (If you are not in a session, the children still launch but won't be grouped under a parent.)

Need a specific parent? Auto-parenting picks the launching session. To parent a child to a different session — e.g. fanning out under a named conductor, or launching from outside that session — pass --parent <session-id-or-title>. Spell out the long form: never use the short -p to set a parent (see the -p pitfall in Notes).

Before you fan out

  • Check for shared singletons. N sessions on the same project can't truly run in parallel if they serialize on one resource — a single dev DB, a bound port, one dev-server lock file. If they'd share one, either give each child isolated resources (own DB name + port) or run one coherent session instead of a fleet.
  • Worktree children need deps installed first. A freshly created git worktree has no node_modules / vendored deps. Make the first instruction in the child's -m prompt install them — and for a locked monorepo, install from the frozen lockfile, never regenerate it (e.g. pnpm install --frozen-lockfile). Otherwise the child's first test/build/e2e fails confusingly.
  • Long prompts: pass via a file. For a big multi-line task, write it to a file and pass --message-file task.md (or --message-file - to read stdin) instead of -m. The file is read directly by agent-deck, so backticks, $, and quotes never round-trip through the shell. Also works on session start and session send (there it replaces the positional message). On older builds without the flag, fall back to -m "$(cat task.md)".

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.

fleet is a skill published in the GitHub repository asheshgoplani/agent-deck (828 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 94 tokens to every session and 3,922 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
