codeman

Drive Codeman, the session manager this agent is running inside, over its HTTP API, from any agent CLI (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Antigravity, Grok Build, DeepSeek Harness, OMP): list sessions, start worker sessions in any installed CLI, send them prompts, block until they finish (wait / wait-output / send-and-wait), read their output, and clean up; where available, message claude workers directly (Claude Code cross-session messaging). Use when asked to orchestrate or parallelize work across Codeman sessions, get a second opinion from another CLI or model, watch another session, start and manage workers, or retrieve saved local Codex history by file/native ID or root and descendants with topic/date filters. Live API operations require a Codeman-managed session (CODEMAN_MUX=1). Offline history reads do not require a server or managed session.

# Driving Codeman from inside a session

For **saved Codex conversation history**, use `codeman history read` and
[reference/history.md](reference/history.md). This is a read-only local command:
route to it **before §0**, including outside a managed session. It needs no API
URL, credentials or running server. All live API operations below retain §0.

You are an agent running inside a Codeman-managed terminal session. Codeman is the
server that spawned you; its HTTP API can start, prompt, watch, and delete other
sessions.

**Read as far as your job needs and no further.** §0 is the bootstrap, run once. §1 is
the whole fast path: spawn N workers, task them, collect answers. **If §1 covers your
job, run it and stop there.** The sections after it are for jobs it does not cover, and
