# Blackbox CLI Delegate coding tasks to [Blackbox AI](https://www.blackbox.ai/) via the Hermes terminal. Blackbox is a multi-model coding agent CLI that dispatches tasks to multiple LLMs (Claude, Codex, Gemini, Blackbox Pro) and uses a judge to select the best implementation. The CLI (npm `@blackbox_ai/blackbox-cli`, binary `blackbox`) is a TypeScript coding agent (forked from Gemini CLI) and supports interactive sessions, non-interactive one-shots, checkpointing, MCP, and vision model switching. ## Prerequisites - Node.js 20+ installed - Blackbox CLI installed: `npm install -g @blackbox_ai/blackbox-cli` (binary: `blackbox`) - API key from [app.blackbox.ai/dashboard](https://app.blackbox.ai/dashboard) - Configured: run `blackbox configure` and enter your API key - Use `pty=true` in terminal calls — Blackbox CLI is an interactive terminal app ## One-Shot Tasks ``` terminal(command="blackbox --prompt 'Add JWT authentication with refresh tokens to the Express API'", workdir="/path/to/project", pty=true) ``` For quick scratch work: ``` terminal(command="cd $(mktemp -d) && git init && blackbox --prompt 'Build a REST API for todos with SQLite'", pty=true) ``` ## Background Mode (Long Tasks) For tasks that take minutes, use background mode so you can monitor progress: ``` # Start in background with PTY terminal(command="blackbox --prompt 'Refactor the auth module to use OAuth 2.0'", workdir="~/project", background=true, pty=true) # Returns session_id # Monitor progress pr
