File contents

Delegate to Specialist CLI

When the user uses @cli syntax (e.g., @kimi, @gemini, @codex), delegate the task to that CLI.

Syntax

@kimi <task> - Delegate to Kimi (frontend/design specialist)
@gemini <task> - Delegate to Gemini (research/search specialist)
@codex <task> - Delegate to Codex (large context specialist)
@k, @g, @c - Shorthand aliases

Execution Steps

When you see @cli syntax in a user message:

Parse the request: Extract CLI name and task
- @kimi design a modal → cli=kimi, task="design a modal"
- @k build a navbar → cli=kimi, task="build a navbar"

Check CLI availability: Run the registry check

${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/lib/registry.sh check <cli>

If available: Execute the delegation

${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/lib/process-manager.sh run <cli> "<task>" "$(pwd)"

Stream output: Show the CLI's response with attribution
Summarize: After completion, briefly summarize what the specialist did

kimi	Frontend, design, UI/UX, CSS, animations, React, Vue, Tailwind	Magenta
gemini	Research, search, documentation, explanations, comparisons	Blue

Summary: Kimi created a Dashboard component with LineChart and BarChart using Recharts, styled with Tailwind CSS dark theme.

Error Handling

If the CLI is not found:

[kimi:error] CLI not found. Is it installed?

To install Kimi CLI:
  uv tool install kimi-cli

Or use a different specialist:
  @gemini for research tasks
  @codex for large codebase analysis

Notes

Always use the process manager for execution to get proper streaming and attribution
The working directory is passed to the CLI so it can access project files
Timeout is CLI-specific (configured in registry.yaml)
