What does this agent skill do?
Dispatch New Session
Launch one independent session in a background Herdr tab.
Choose
Use the invocation argument or current request as the task brief. If neither contains a concrete task, ask for it first.
Ask for the target harness with native structured input, then ask for a model compatible with that harness. Recommend the path matching the harness running this skill:
| Caller | Recommended target |
|---|---|
| Claude | Claude with Opus |
| Codex | Codex with Sol |
| Pi | Pi with its configured default model |
For a cross-harness dispatch, recommend that target's same default. Offer these useful alternatives:
- Claude: Opus, Fable, or another Claude model.
- Codex: Sol or another Codex model.
- Pi: its configured default or a model present in
pi --list-models.
Put the recommendation first and label it Recommended. When structured input is
unavailable, ask one plain-text question at a time. Never silently replace an unavailable
or incompatible choice.
Dispatch
Read herdr --skill, require HERDR_ENV=1, and use the installed CLI syntax. Create a new
tab in the current workspace and directory with --no-focus. Derive a short tab label and
unique agent name from the task.
Start the selected harness in the tab's root pane:
- Claude:
--allow-dangerously-skip-permissions --model <model> - Codex:
--yolo -m <model>; usegpt-5.6-solfor Sol. - Pi: omit
--modelfor the Pi default; otherwise pass the exact provider/model identifier reported bypi --list-models.
Prompt the new agent with the task brief without expanding its scope. Wait only long enough
to confirm the prompt enters working or blocked; leave the session running. If startup
fails before an agent starts, close only the tab created by this invocation. If blocked,
inspect and report the blocker without answering it.
Report the tab, agent name, harness, model, and observed state.
