ccc-spawn

ccc-spawn is a skill for Claude Code from KevinZai/commander. It costs 48 tokens per session (1,091 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A session-spawning hub for moving a separate task into its own Claude session, either individually, in parallel, or as a hand-off chain.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps isolate self-contained work, split tasks across files, run parallel work, or pass work from specification to implementation to review.
Why use it?
It keeps independent work from cluttering the current conversation and supports fresh context for separate tasks.

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

ccc-spawn 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 — 81 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

$ccc-spawn — Spawn Hub

Spin work off into its own session on demand — the manual counterpart to the automatic isolation-spawn nudge (suggest-ticker). One click-first entry point that routes to the right spawn mechanism for what you're doing, and for the surface you're on.

Surface-aware. In Claude Cowork Desktop, spawning a one-off session is a spawn_task sidebar chip. In the Claude Code CLI, it's a /spawn peer via the claude-peers broker. This skill picks the right one automatically — you don't have to know which surface you're on.

When you'd reach for it

  • "This is a separate, self-contained thing — do it in its own session so it doesn't derail here."
  • "Fan this out across N files in parallel."
  • "Run spec → build → review as a chain of hand-off sessions."
  • "Get a fresh, independent expert pass on this."

How it routes

On $ccc-spawn with no argument, open a click-first picker:

AskUserQuestion:
  question: "What do you want to spawn?"
  options:
    - Isolated session — one self-contained task, its own fresh context
    - Parallel fleet — fan out across independent files/units at once
    - Cross-session relay — chain spec → build → review as hand-off sessions
    - Expert pass — one independent reviewer (security / perf / design / …)
Choice Surface behaviour Under the hood
Isolated session Cowork → emit a spawn_task chip [⭐ Spawn as separate session]; CLI → /spawn quick <task> A fresh peer/session with a self-contained brief; never derails the current thread
Parallel fleet Route to $ccc-fleet (worktree-isolated parallel agents) fan-out / pipeline / judge / debate modes
Cross-session relay Route to $ccc-relay loop-state hand-off, spec→build→review→merge
Expert pass Cowork → spawn_task chip scoped to one reviewer persona; CLI → /spawn expert <domain> a single fresh-context reviewer, prompted to refute (Pillar 2)

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.
