Purpose

Execute agentic coding tools directly via bash commands and capture their output in real-time. This is a simpler and more reliable alternative to fork-terminal for one-off tasks.

Follow the Instructions, execute the Workflow, based on the Cookbook.

Variables

ENABLE_GEMINI_CLI: true ENABLE_CLAUDE_CODE: true ENABLE_CODEX_CLI: true AGENTIC_CODING_TOOLS: gemini, claude-code, codex

Instructions

• Based on the user's request, follow the Cookbook to determine which tool to use.
• Execute the command directly using bash and capture stdout/stderr
• Return the output to the user immediately

Workflow

1. Understand the user's request
2. Follow the Cookbook to determine which tool to use
3. Construct the appropriate bash command
4. Execute using the Bash tool with appropriate timeout
5. Return results to the user

Cookbook

Gemini CLI

• IF: The user requests Gemini to execute a task AND ENABLE_GEMINI_CLI is true
• THEN: Read and execute: .claude/skills/fork-bash/cookbook/gemini-cli.md
• EXAMPLES:
  • "Use Gemini to scrape the latest news from CNN"
  • "Ask Gemini to analyze this webpage"
  • "Run Gemini with yolo mode to get information about X"

Claude Code

• IF: The user requests Claude Code agent AND ENABLE_CLAUDE_CODE is true
• THEN: Read and execute: .claude/skills/fork-bash/cookbook/claude-code.md
• EXAMPLES:
  • "Use Claude Code to refactor this file"
  • "Ask Claude Code to analyze the codebase"

Codex CLI

• IF: The user requests Codex AND ENABLE_CODEX_CLI is true
• THEN: Read and execute: .claude/skills/fork-bash/cookbook/codex-cli.md
• EXAMPLES:
  • "Use Codex to generate code for X"
  • "Ask Codex to explain this function"

Notes

• This skill executes commands synchronously and captures output
• Use appropriate timeouts based on task complexity
• Always use YOLO mode (-y flag) for automated execution
• Output is captured directly from stdout/stderr
