Agent Communication

SkillAI & models

Your AI can find other AI agents that are currently active, such as Codex or Claude Code, and exchange information with them. Once added, it can see which agents are running, read what another agent has been working on, and send it information or ask for details back. This helps when one agent needs to know what another is doing.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

After adding it, ask your AI to list the agents that are currently active, then have it read one agent's context or send that agent some information.

Then ask your AI: use the Agent Communication skill

What your AI can do with it

  • Find AI agents that are currently active
  • Look up details about a specific agent
  • Read another agent's recent context
  • Send information to another agent
  • Request information back from another agent

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by codeaholicguy/ai-devkit in skills/agent-communication/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Use ai-devkit agent ... to discover and communicate with active agents. If ai-devkit is not on PATH, use npx ai-devkit@latest agent ....

Commands

ai-devkit agent list --json
ai-devkit agent detail --id <agent-name> --json --tail 20
ai-devkit agent send --id <agent-name> "<message>"
ai-devkit agent send --id <agent-name> --wait --timeout 120000 --json "<message>"
<command> 2>&1 | ai-devkit agent send --id <agent-name> --stdin

Notes

  • list --json returns active agents with fields such as name, type, status, summary, projectPath, and lastActive.
  • Use the name from list --json as --id. Partial matches are supported, but exact names are safer.
  • Use detail --json --tail <n> to read recent context from an agent before deciding what to send.
  • send --wait waits for a reply; add --json when the response should be machine-readable.
  • send --stdin forwards piped command output or larger text.
