Create and control a disposable named Herdr session from inside an existing Herdr session. Use for isolated Herdr runtime, pane, terminal, process, API, persistence, or agent reproductions that should be driven through the CLI/API without touching the default session.

# Herdr throwaway reproduction Use a disposable named Herdr session when a reproduction needs a real Herdr server, panes, PTYs, agents, or socket API without risking the user's main session. The temporary TUI only keeps the disposable session attached and supplies terminal geometry. Drive the reproduction from the parent session through Herdr's CLI/API. Do not manually operate the nested TUI unless the bug specifically requires client input. ## Non-negotiable safety - Never run the reproduction in the default session. - Never stop, restart, delete, or kill the main Herdr server. - Never use `pkill`, broad process matching, or guessed PIDs for cleanup. - Create a unique session name. Never reuse or delete an unrelated named session. - Create a new outer pane and close only that pane during cleanup. - Read workspace, tab, pane, terminal, and agent IDs from command output. Never construct them. - Use `/var/tmp` for reproduction directories and potentially large artifacts. - Do not approve destructive or unnecessary agent actions. - Do not spend paid agent tokens without the user's approval. Use the requested low-cost model and the smallest useful prompts. ## Learn the installed interface first The installed binary is the authority. CLI syntax may have changed since this skill was written. Confirm the caller is inside Herdr and inspect the relevant help before doing anything: ```bash test "${HERDR_ENV:-}" = 1 herdr --version herdr --help herdr session herdr pane herdr age...

herdr

Control Herdr, a terminal multiplexer for coding agents. Use only when the user explicitly mentions Herdr or asks to use Herdr to inspect or control panes, tabs, workspaces, terminals, commands, or communication with another agent. Do not use merely because a task could benefit from a background terminal, delegation, or parallel work. Requires HERDR_ENV=1.

herdr

Drive the Herdr terminal workspace manager from the CLI inside the Open Harness sandbox — inspect and control workspaces, tabs, panes, agents, and git worktrees over the Herdr socket API, and read or steer other running agents headlessly. TRIGGER when: asked to run a `herdr` command, list/read/send to another agent or pane, check what agents are running or whether one is idle, split/focus/close panes or tabs, open or create a worktree in Herdr, wait for a pane's output or an agent's status, check Herdr server/session status, or install a Herdr provider integration. Do NOT trigger for tmux-managed headless services (cron, Slack gateway, watchdog) — those stay in their own tmux sessions.

herdr

Working knowledge of herdr (herdr.dev), the terminal workspace manager and coding-agent orchestrator (client-server, tmux-like persistence, agent state tracking). Use this skill whenever the user mentions herdr, asks about terminal workspaces/panes/tabs, attaching/detaching/resuming terminal sessions, orchestrating multiple coding agents, remote-attaching to another machine's terminal, or herdr config. ALSO use it proactively whenever HERDR_ENV=1 appears in the environment — that means you are running inside a herdr pane and can orchestrate panes/agents via the herdr CLI (e.g. spawn a real-TTY pane for interactive prompts like `op signin`).
