skill-parallel-agents

Host: Codex CLI — This skill was designed for Claude Code and adapted for Codex. Cross-reference commands use installed skill names in Codex rather than /octo:* slash commands. Use the active Codex shell and subagent tools. Do not claim a provider, model, or host subagent is available until the current session exposes it. For host tool equivalents, see skills/blocks/codex-host-adapter.md.

Claude Octopus - Multi-Tentacled Orchestrator

MANDATORY COMPLIANCE — DO NOT SKIP

When this skill is invoked, you MUST dispatch work to multiple providers in parallel. You are PROHIBITED from:

• Running tasks sequentially with a single model instead of parallel multi-provider dispatch
• Skipping orchestrate.sh and doing the work directly
• Deciding the task is "simple enough" for a single provider
• Substituting serial Claude-only execution for multi-LLM parallel execution

This skill exists specifically for multi-provider parallel work. If you catch yourself thinking "I'll just do this myself" — STOP.

Multi-tentacled orchestrator for Claude Code - using Double Diamond methodology for comprehensive problem exploration, consensus building, and validated delivery.

Quick Start

Note for Claude Code users: You don't need to run these commands! Just talk naturally to Claude:

• "Research OAuth authentication patterns"
• "Build a user authentication system"
• "Review this code for security issues"

The commands below are for direct CLI usage or automation.

# Full Double Diamond workflow (all 4 phases)
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh embrace "Build a user authentication system"

# Individual phases
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh probe "Research authentication best practices"
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh grasp "Define auth requirements"
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh tangle "Implement auth feature"
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh ink "Validate and deliver auth implementation"

# Crossfire: Adversarial cross-model review
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh grapple "implement password reset API"
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh grapple --principles security "implement JWT auth"
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh squeeze "review auth.ts for vulnerabilities"

# Smart auto-routing (detects intent automatically)
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh auto "research OAuth patterns"           # -> probe
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh auto "build user login"                  # -> tangle + ink
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh auto "review the auth code"              # -> ink

IMPORTANT: When NOT to Use This Skill

DO NOT use this skill if the user's request involves:

1. Built-in Claude Code commands - Commands starting with / that are part of Claude Code itself:

   • /plugin - Plugin management (add, remove, update, list)
   • /init - Project initialization
   • /help - Help documentation
   • /clear - Clear conversation
   • /commit - Git commit operations
   • /remember - Memory management
   • Any other / command that isn't /parallel-agents or /octo:*

2. Direct tool usage - Simple file operations, git commands, or terminal tasks

   • Reading/writing files
   • Running git commands
   • Basic bash operations
   • These should use built-in tools directly

3. Claude Code configuration - Managing Claude Code itself

   • Changing settings
   • Managing plugins
   • Updating Claude Code

If the user's request matches any of the above, DO NOT activate this skill. Handle the request using standard Claude Code tools and capabilities instead.

Visual Indicators - Know What's Running

Claude Octopus uses visual indicators so you always know which AI is responding:

Indicator	Meaning	Uses
🐙	Parallel Mode	Multiple CLIs orchestrated via orchestrate.sh
🔴	Codex CLI	OpenAI Codex (your OPENAI_API_KEY)
🟡	Gemini CLI	Google Gemini (your GEMINI_API_KEY)
🔵	Claude Subagent	Claude Code host subagent tool (built-in)

What Triggers External CLIs vs Subagents

External CLIs execute when:

• Using /parallel-agents command explicitly
• Using /debate command (AI Debate Hub)
• Running orchestrate.sh workflows (probe, grasp, tangle, ink, embrace, grapple, squeeze)
• Knowledge mode deliberation (when Knowledge Mode is ON)
• Natural language that triggers this skill (research, build, review tasks)

Claude Subagents execute when:

• Simple file operations (read, write, edit)
• Git commands and bash operations
• Code reading and navigation
• Tasks that don't need multiple perspectives
• Built-in Claude Code capabilities are sufficient

Why this matters: External CLIs use your OpenAI/Google API quotas and incur costs. Claude subagents are included with Claude Code at no additional charge.

When you see 🐙 CLAUDE OCTOPUS ACTIVATED, external CLI providers (Codex/Gemini) will be invoked for multi-perspective analysis.

Force Multi-Provider Mode

Sometimes you want multi-provider analysis even for simple tasks that wouldn't normally trigger workflows. This is useful when you need comprehensive perspectives on decisions, want to compare how different models think, or when automatic routing underestimates task complexity.

Explicit Command

Force multi-provider execution using the /octo:multi command:

/octo:multi "Explain how Redis works"
/octo:multi "What is OAuth?"
/octo:multi "Review this simple function"
/octo:multi "Should we use TypeScript?"

Natural Language Triggers

You can also force multi-provider mode with natural language:

"Run this with all providers: What is JWT?"
"I want all three AI models to look at our architecture"
"Get multiple perspectives on this design decision"
"Use all providers for explaining caching strategies"
"Force multi-provider analysis of our API design"

When to Force Parallel Mode

Use forced parallel mode when:

• High-stakes decisions require comprehensive analysis from multiple models
• Comparing perspectives - you want to see how different models approach the same problem
• Simple questions with depth - seemingly simple questions that deserve thorough multi-model analysis
• Learning different approaches - exploring how each model thinks about a topic
• Automatic routing underestimates complexity - task appears simple but has nuance

Don't force parallel mode when:

• Task already auto-triggers workflows (octo research, octo build, octo review)
• Simple factual questions Claude can answer reliably
• Cost efficiency is important (see cost awareness below)
• File operations or code navigation (use built-in tools)

Cost Awareness

Forcing parallel mode uses external CLIs for every task, which incurs API costs:

Provider	Cost per Query	What It Uses
🔴 Codex CLI	~$0.01-0.05	Your OPENAI_API_KEY
🟡 Gemini CLI	~$0.01-0.03	Your GEMINI_API_KEY
🔵 Claude	Included	Claude Code subscription

Total cost per forced query: ~$0.02-0.08

Use forced parallel mode judiciously for tasks where multiple perspectives genuinely add value. For routine work, let automatic routing decide when multi-provider analysis is beneficial.

Visual Indicator

When you force parallel mode, you'll see this banner:

🐙 **CLAUDE OCTOPUS ACTIVATED** - Multi-provider mode
Force parallel execution

Providers:
🔴 Codex CLI - [Role in this task]
🟡 Gemini CLI - [Role in this task]
🔵 Claude - [Role in this task]

Followed by results from each provider marked with their indicators (🔴 🟡 🔵).

Prerequisites Check (Automatic - Fast Detection)

IMPORTANT: Once you've determined this skill should activate (user asked to research, build, review, etc.), immediately run the provider detection below. DO NOT ask the user for permission - just check providers and proceed or show welcome message.

Step 1: Automatic Provider Detection

Silently run this fast detection script (completes in <1 second):

${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh detect-providers

IMPORTANT - First Time Setup Detection: If the detect-providers command shows BOTH providers are missing (CODEX_STATUS=missing AND GEMINI_STATUS=missing), this is likely a first-time user. Before showing error messages, provide a friendly welcome message:

"👋 Welcome to Claude Octopus! I see this is your first time using the plugin.

To get started, you need to install one AI provider (you don't need both):

Option 1: OpenAI Codex (best for code generation)

npm install -g @openai/codex
codex login  # OAuth recommended

Or set API key: export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-..." Get key from: https://platform.openai.com/api-keys

Option 2: Google Gemini (best for analysis)

npm install -g @google/gemini-cli
gemini  # OAuth recommended

Or set API key: export GEMINI_API_KEY="AIza..." Get key from: https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey

Once you've installed one provider, you can start using Claude Octopus by just talking naturally:

• 'Research OAuth authentication patterns'
• 'Build a user authentication system'
• 'Review this code for security issues'

Need guided setup? Run /octo:setup"

After showing this welcome message, STOP and wait for the user to set up a provider. Do not proceed with the original task until at least one provider is configured.

Expected output format:

Detecting Claude Code version...

CLAUDE_CODE_VERSION=2.1.9
CLAUDE_CODE_STATUS=ok
CLAUDE_CODE_MINIMUM=2.1.9

✓ Claude Code version: 2.1.9 (meets minimum 2.1.9)

Detecting providers...

CODEX_STATUS=ok
CODEX_AUTH=oauth

GEMINI_STATUS=ok
GEMINI_AUTH=none

Summary:
  ✓ Codex: Installed and authenticated (oauth)
  ⚠ Gemini: Installed but not authenticated

Step 2: Route Based on Detection Results

Parse the output and route accordingly:

Scenario 0: Claude Code version is outdated (CRITICAL - Check First)

CLAUDE_CODE_VERSION=2.1.8
CLAUDE_CODE_STATUS=outdated
CLAUDE_CODE_MINIMUM=2.1.9

Action: STOP immediately and show this prominent warning:

"⚠️ Claude Code Update Required

Your current Claude Code version (2.1.8) is outdated. Claude Octopus requires version 2.1.9 or higher for full functionality.

How to update:

If installed via npm:

npm update -g @anthropic/claude-code

If installed via Homebrew:

brew upgrade claude-code

If installed via download: Visit https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/releases

After updating, please restart Claude Code and then we can proceed with your task."

Do NOT proceed with the task until the user has updated and restarted. The detect-providers output will show this warning prominently.

Scenario A: Both providers missing

CODEX_STATUS=missing
CODEX_AUTH=none
GEMINI_STATUS=missing
GEMINI_AUTH=none

Action: STOP and tell the user:

"Claude Octopus needs at least one AI provider (Codex or Gemini) to work.

You have two options:

Option 1: Install Codex CLI

npm install -g @openai/codex
export OPENAI_API_KEY=\"sk-...\"

Get API key from: https://platform.openai.com/api-keys

Option 2: Install Gemini CLI

npm install -g @google/gemini-cli
gemini  # Run OAuth setup

After installing one, run /octo:setup to verify everything works."

Scenario B: One provider working, one missing/partial

CODEX_STATUS=ok
CODEX_AUTH=oauth (or api-key)
GEMINI_STATUS=missing (or ok with AUTH=none)

Action: IMMEDIATELY proceed with the user's task using the available provider. No need to announce setup status - just execute the task. The user doesn't care about which provider you're using, they just want their task done.

Scenario C: Both providers working

CODEX_STATUS=ok
CODEX_AUTH=oauth
GEMINI_STATUS=ok
GEMINI_AUTH=oauth

Action: IMMEDIATELY proceed with the user's task using both providers for comprehensive results. No need to announce setup status - just execute the task.

Step 3: Graceful Degradation

If only ONE provider is available:

• Automatically use that provider
• Tasks that require multiple providers will adapt to use the single provider multiple times
• Quality results are still achievable with one provider

You do NOT need both providers to proceed. One is sufficient for most tasks.

Step 4: Cache Results (Optional Optimization)

The detect-providers command writes results to ~/.claude-octopus/.provider-cache with a timestamp. This cache is valid for 1 hour.

If the cache exists and is fresh (<1 hour old), you can skip re-detection.

Step 5: Execute Task

Only proceed when at least ONE provider is available and authenticated. Multi-provider tasks will automatically adapt to available providers.

IMPORTANT: This detection is fast (~1 second) and non-blocking. Always verify provider availability before running octopus commands, but don't require BOTH providers - one is enough!

Double Diamond Workflow

Phase 1: PROBE (Discover)

Diverge then converge on understanding

Parallel research from 4 perspectives:

• Problem space analysis (constraints, requirements, needs)
• Existing solutions research (what worked, what failed)
• Edge cases exploration (potential challenges)
• Technical feasibility (prerequisites, dependencies)

${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh probe "What are the best approaches for real-time notifications?"

Phase 2: GRASP (Define)

Build consensus on the problem

Multi-tentacled problem definition:

• Core problem statement
• Success criteria
• Constraints and boundaries

${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh grasp "Define requirements for notification system" --context probe-synthesis-*.md

Phase 3: TANGLE (Develop)

Diverge with multiple solutions

Enhanced map-reduce with validation:

• Task decomposition via LLM
• Parallel execution across agents
• Quality gate (75% success threshold)

${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh tangle "Implement notification service" --context grasp-consensus-*.md

Phase 4: INK (Deliver)

Converge to validated delivery

Pre-delivery validation:

• Quality gate verification
• Result synthesis
• Final deliverable generation

${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh ink "Deliver notification system" --context tangle-validation-*.md

Full Workflow: EMBRACE

Run all 4 phases sequentially with automatic context passing:

${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh embrace "Create a complete user dashboard feature"

Crossfire: Adversarial Cross-Model Review

Different models have different blind spots. Crossfire commands force models to critique each other's work, catching more issues than single-model review.

GRAPPLE - Adversarial Debate

Two tentacles wrestling until consensus

Codex and Gemini each propose solutions, then critique each other's work. A synthesis determines the winner.

┌─────────────┐     ┌─────────────┐
│   Codex     │     │   Gemini    │
│ (Proposer)  │     │ (Proposer)  │

# Basic grapple
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh grapple "implement password reset API"

# Grapple with security principles

# Grapple with performance principles
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh grapple --principles performance "optimize database queries"

SQUEEZE - Red Team Security Review

Octopus squeezes prey to test for weaknesses

Blue Team (Codex) implements secure code. Red Team (Gemini) attacks to find vulnerabilities. Then remediation and validation.

Phase 1: Blue Team implements secure solution
Phase 2: Red Team finds vulnerabilities
Phase 3: Remediation fixes all issues
Phase 4: Validation verifies all fixed

${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh squeeze "implement user login form"
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh squeeze "review auth.ts for vulnerabilities"

Constitutional Principles

Grapple supports domain-specific critique principles:

Principle	Focus	Use Case
general	Overall quality	Default for most reviews
security	OWASP Top 10, secure coding	Auth, payments, user data
performance	N+1 queries, caching, async	Database, API optimization
maintainability	Clean code, testability	Refactoring, code reviews

${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh grapple --principles security "implement password reset"
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh grapple --principles performance "optimize search API"
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh grapple --principles maintainability "refactor user service"

Smart Auto-Routing

The auto command detects intent keywords and routes to the appropriate workflow:

Keywords	Routes To	Phases
research, explore, investigate, analyze	probe	Discover
develop, dev, build, implement, create	tangle + ink	Develop + Deliver
qa, test, review, validate, check	ink	Deliver (quality focus)
security audit, red team, pentest	squeeze	Red Team
adversarial, cross-model, debate	grapple	Debate
(other coding keywords)	codex agent	Single agent
(other design keywords)	gemini agent	Single agent

Examples:

${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh auto "research best practices for caching"     # -> probe
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh auto "build the caching layer"                 # -> tangle + ink
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh auto "review the cache implementation"         # -> ink
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh auto "security audit the auth module"          # -> squeeze
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh auto "have both models debate the API design"  # -> grapple
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh auto "fix the cache invalidation bug"          # -> codex

Quality Gates

The tangle phase enforces quality gates:

Score	Status	Behavior
>= 90%	PASSED	Proceed to ink
75-89%	WARNING	Proceed with caution

Provider-Aware Routing (v4.8)

Claude Octopus now intelligently routes tasks based on your subscription tiers and costs.

Provider Subscription Tiers

Provider	Tiers	Monthly Cost	Capabilities
Codex/OpenAI	Free, Plus, Pro, API	$0-200	code, chat, review
Gemini	Free, Google One, Workspace, API	$0-20 or bundled	code, chat, vision, long-context (2M)
Claude	Pro, Max 5x, Max 20x, API	$20-200	code, chat, analysis, long-context
OpenRouter	Pay-per-use	Variable	400+ models, routing variants

Cost Optimization Strategies

Strategy	Description
balanced (default)	Smart mix of cost and quality
cost-first	Prefer cheapest capable provider
quality-first	Prefer highest-tier provider

Example: If you have Google Workspace (bundled Gemini Pro), the system prefers Gemini for heavy analysis tasks since it's "free" with your work account.

Routing CLI Flags

# Force a specific provider
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh --provider gemini auto "analyze code structure"

# Prefer cheapest option
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh --cost-first auto "research best practices"

# Prefer highest quality
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh --quality-first auto "complex refactoring task"

# OpenRouter routing variants
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh --openrouter-nitro auto "quick task"  # Fastest
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh --openrouter-floor auto "bulk task"   # Cheapest

Configuration

Provider tiers are configured during setup or via the providers config file:

# Run setup wizard (includes provider tier steps)
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh setup

# View current provider status
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh status

Configuration file: ~/.claude-octopus/.providers-config

version: "2.0"
providers:
  codex:
    installed: true
    auth_method: "oauth"
    subscription_tier: "plus"    # free|plus|pro|api-only
    cost_tier: "low"             # free|low|medium|high|bundled|pay-per-use

  gemini:
    installed: true
    auth_method: "oauth"
    subscription_tier: "workspace"  # free|google-one|workspace|api-only
    cost_tier: "bundled"

  openrouter:
    enabled: false
    routing_preference: "default"   # default|nitro|floor

cost_optimization:
  strategy: "balanced"  # cost-first|quality-first|balanced

OpenRouter Fallback

OpenRouter provides 400+ models as a universal fallback when Codex/Gemini are unavailable:

# Set up OpenRouter API key
export OPENROUTER_API_KEY="sk-or-..."

# Re-run setup to configure
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh setup

Example Workflows

Research-First Development

# 1. Explore the problem space
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh probe "Authentication patterns for microservices"

# 2. Define the approach (with probe context)
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh grasp "OAuth2 with JWT for our API" \
  --context ~/.claude-octopus/results/probe-synthesis-*.md

# 3. Implement with validation
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh tangle "Implement OAuth2 authentication"

# 4. Deliver with quality checks
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh ink "Finalize auth implementation"

Quick Build (Auto-Routed)

# Auto-detects "build" intent -> runs tangle + ink
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh auto "build a rate limiting middleware"

Full Feature Development

# All 4 phases in one command
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh embrace "Create a user notification system with email and push support"

Best Practices

1. Start with embrace for new features requiring exploration
2. Use probe alone when researching before committing to an approach
3. Use auto for smart routing based on your intent
4. Chain phases with --context for incremental workflows
5. Run preflight before long workflows to verify dependencies
6. Review quality gates in tangle output before proceeding to ink

Troubleshooting

Pre-flight check fails

${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh preflight
# Verify: codex CLI, gemini CLI, OPENAI_API_KEY, GOOGLE_API_KEY

Quality gate failures

Tangle phase requires 75% success rate. If failing:

• Break task into smaller subtasks
• Increase timeout with -t 600
• Check individual agent logs in ~/.claude-octopus/logs/

Reset workspace

${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh clean
${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh init
