Collaborating with Claude Code

A bridge skill that delegates prototyping, debugging, and code review to the Claude Code CLI headlessly with session continuity.

Dev & CodingAdvanced★ 130⑂ 17AI score 9/10Last updated: Aug 17, 2026

What it does

  • Wraps claude --print in scripts/claude_bridge.py, streaming progress to stderr and returning structured JSON (SESSION_ID, agent_messages, cost, usage, tools_failed, permission_denials).
  • Supports multi-turn delegation via SESSION_ID or --continue, with model aliases (haiku/sonnet/opus) plus --effort, --max-turns, and --max-budget-usd for cost control.
  • Enforces read-only-first delegation (--permission-mode plan or --tools "Read,Glob,Grep"), granting writes only deliberately and preferably in an isolated worktree.
  • Documents the host-side approval trap: a sandboxed or classifier-gated host can silently deny the bridge call, and shows the allowlist fix.

Who it's for

  • Developers who want an independent second opinion from another agent while they implement.
  • Teams reviewing designs, edge cases, or test gaps in parallel with coding.
  • Automation engineers who need per-run telemetry on cost and permission denials.

Examples

  1. Analyze the auth flow under src/auth/ in plan mode with no edits allowed.
  2. Ask for a review of login() in src/auth.py and require unified-diff-only output.
  3. Turn 1 diagnoses a bug, then resume by SESSION_ID to ask for a fix and edge cases.

What I want: (describe your task here)

If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.

↓ If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.

Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
  1. Download the ZIP with the button below.
  2. In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
  3. Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
↓ Download ZIP
Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the skills/collaborating-with-claude folder from the GitHub repo appautomaton/agent-designer into my ~/.claude/skills/collaborating-with-claude/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/appautomaton/agent-designer.git /tmp/agent-designer && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/agent-designer/skills/collaborating-with-claude ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Install the Claude Code CLI and log in (claude, then /login), or export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY.
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/appautomaton/agent-designer.git
  3. Copy the skill: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r agent-designer/skills/collaborating-with-claude ~/.claude/skills/
  4. Smoke test: python3 ~/.claude/skills/collaborating-with-claude/scripts/claude_bridge.py --help
  5. Pre-authorize the bridge: add "Bash(python3 *collaborating-with-claude*bridge.py*)" to permissions.allow in settings.json; sandboxed hosts also need the same pattern in sandbox.excludedCommands.
  6. Restart Claude Code and ask something like "delegate this code review to Claude Code CLI". For long runs, use background execution and a 600000 ms timeout.
