# Dispatch

Delegate tasks to external AI CLIs from inside Claude Code. Say "check with codex", "ask gemini for a second opinion", or "validate this before I merge" and Claude runs the other agent, keeps a topic-aware conversation, and critiques the result rather than echoing it.

Supports OpenAI Codex CLI and Google Antigravity CLI (multi-model: Gemini, Claude, GPT-OSS). No API keys — both CLIs use their own auth (OAuth / Google sign-in).

## When to Use This Skill

- Getting a second opinion from a different model family before merging
- Cross-checking Claude's analysis against Codex or Gemini
- Delegating a side task (research, review, image generation) to another CLI
- Triangulating a decision across multiple models and having Claude reconcile disagreements
- Resuming a prior delegation thread without restating context

## What This Skill Does

1. **Routes to the right CLI** based on the tool you name — "codex" invokes Codex CLI, "gemini" or "agy" invokes Antigravity CLI
2. **Picks sensible defaults** — Codex: gpt-5.5, read-only sandbox; Antigravity: Gemini 3.5 Flash (or the model you name)
3. **Synthesizes the result** — Claude summarizes findings, states where it agrees or disagrees, and recommends next steps
4. **Tracks topics** — each delegation gets its own external session, resumed by ID on follow-ups

## Examples

### Second opinion on code

```
User: ask codex to review my uncommitted changes before I merge

Claude: [runs codex review --uncommitted, synthesizes findings]
        Codex flagged three things. I agree with #1 (missing null check)
        but #2 and #3 are false positives. Want me to fix the null check?
```

### Cross-model challenge

```
User: ask gemini to challenge this architecture

Claude: [runs agy with Gemini 3.1 Pro, compares with own analysis]
        Gemini raises a valid concern about hot-partition risk that I
        hadn't flagged. Its other two points don't apply here.
```

### Resume a thread

```
User: continue with codex — is the top issue real?

Claude: [resumes the same codex session with a delta bridge]
        Codex confirms the null-check issue — it traced the code path.
```

## Requirements

- Claude Code (the plugin runs inside it)
- For Codex: `codex` CLI + `codex login` (OAuth)
- For Antigravity: `agy` CLI + Google sign-in (free account)
