claude-peers

claude-peers is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from tdimino/claude-code-minoan. It costs 77 tokens per session (1,119 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A messaging network that lets Claude Code and Codex sessions running on the same computer discover one another and exchange task updates through a shared broker.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to delegate tasks, request peer code reviews, send messages, and coordinate parallel investigations across agent sessions.
Why use it?
It helps multiple coding agents coordinate work, share summaries, and hand off reviews without working in isolation.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for Claude Code and Codex: user-invocable in frontmatter, but also reads ~/.codex or $CODEX_HOME. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions Claude Code; mentions Codex.

Good fit Use it to delegate tasks, request peer code reviews, send messages, and coordinate parallel investigations across agent sessions.

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 B, and why

claude-peers scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 8d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 5 executable files (mcp-server/broker.ts, mcp-server/cli.ts, mcp-server/server.ts, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 65 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

claude-peers

Peer discovery and messaging network for AI coding agents on the same machine. A shared broker daemon listens on a Unix domain socket (~/.claude/run/claude-peers.sock), backed by SQLite, routing messages between Claude Code and Codex CLI sessions.

Client Types

Client Push notifications Message delivery Config
claude-code Yes (claude/channel) Instant — messages pushed into session settings.json MCP entry
codex No Poll — must call check_messages each turn ~/.codex/config.toml MCP entry
cli No Manual via bun ~/tools/claude-peers-mcp/cli.ts send <id> <msg> N/A

Workflow Patterns

Task delegation: Send a focused task description to a Codex or Claude peer via send_message. Include file paths, acceptance criteria, and which branch to work on. The receiving agent picks it up on its next turn.

Code review handoff: After completing work, message a peer with the diff summary and ask for review. The peer can respond with findings via send_message.

Parallel exploration: Multiple agents working the same repo can use set_summary to advertise what they're investigating, preventing duplicate work. Use list_peers with scope repo to see who else is in the same codebase.

Session lifecycle: Use kill_peer to terminate a stuck, unresponsive, or completed peer's agent session. This kills the parent process (e.g., the Codex CLI), not just the MCP subprocess, and cleans up the peer record.

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.
