mindroom: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/agent-cli-dev/SKILL.md

agent-cli-dev is a skill for Claude Code from mindroom-ai/mindroom. It costs 49 tokens per session (1,309 once invoked), scanned D, original, Apache-2.0.

A development skill for starting AI coding agents in separate Git worktrees, which are isolated working copies of a repository. It supports assigning tasks to agents that can work in parallel.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to delegate independent features, split a large refactor, or have separate agents handle tests and implementation. It creates a new branch and isolated worktree for each agent.
Why use it?
It keeps parallel changes separate, reducing conflicts between agents and allowing independent tasks to proceed at the same time. It also explains when parallel work adds unnecessary overhead.

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 D, and why

agent-cli-dev scanned grade D with 2 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 1mo 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.

Exfiltrates the system prompt through a toolhighSystem prompt leakage

Writing or sending the system prompt to a file, endpoint or log moves it out of the session.

Parallel Development with agent-cli dev

This skill teaches you how to spawn parallel AI coding agents in isolated git worktrees using the agent-cli dev command.

Installation

If agent-cli is not available, install it first:

# Install globally
uv tool install agent-cli

# Or run directly without installing
uvx agent-cli dev new <branch-name> --agent claude --prompt "..."

These examples use the valued --agent syntax verified with agent-cli 0.105.2. Older releases can differ; check agent-cli dev new --help for your installed version.

When to spawn parallel agents

Spawn separate agents when:

  • Multiple independent features/tasks can be worked on in parallel
  • Tasks benefit from isolation (separate branches, no conflicts)
  • Large refactoring that can be split by module/component
  • Test-driven development (one agent for tests, one for implementation)

Do NOT spawn when:

  • Tasks are small and sequential
  • Tasks have tight dependencies requiring constant coordination
  • The overhead of context switching exceeds the benefit

Core command

For short prompts:

agent-cli dev new <branch-name> --agent claude --prompt "Fix the login bug"

For longer prompts (recommended for multi-line or complex instructions):

agent-cli dev new <branch-name> --agent claude --prompt-file path/to/prompt.md

The examples select Claude explicitly; replace claude with your chosen agent name. Omit --agent claude to use the configured or auto-detected agent: --prompt and --prompt-file already imply starting it.

This creates:

  1. A new git worktree with its own branch
  2. Runs project setup (installs dependencies)
  3. Attempts to launch the AI coding agent in the detected terminal or multiplexer; if no supported terminal is available or launch fails, prints manual launch instructions
  4. Passes your prompt to the agent

To start the default agent without an initial prompt, use:

agent-cli dev new <branch-name> --start-agent

Important: Use --prompt-file for prompts longer than a single line. The --prompt option passes text through the shell, which can cause issues with special characters (exclamation marks, dollar signs, backticks, quotes) in ZSH and other shells. Using --prompt-file avoids all shell quoting issues.

agent-cli-dev is a skill published in the GitHub repository mindroom-ai/mindroom (346 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 49 tokens to every session and 1,309 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it D with 2 findings (exfiltrates the system prompt through a tool, reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
