What's New in v2.26.0

Prompt stack, modernized

• refine_prompt (new tool) — opt-in prompt improver on a cheap/fast model: raw query → goal-first brief + what changed + open questions. Never auto-fires, never executes anything — you review, then use the brief. In Claude Code, /prompt refine presents the open questions as clickable choices and merges your answers into a final brief.

• Curated technique list — list_prompt_techniques now defaults to the ~9 core techniques that still help 2026 reasoning models (output contracts like scot, pre_mortem, bdd_spec); all=true for the full 31.

• technique="auto" — preview_prompt_technique recommends the right technique for your task, with reasons. Ask tachi "improve my prompt" for the symptom-based menu.

Setup, de-mystified

• tachibot init (new CLI wizard) — detects your API keys and clients, prints the exact config for Claude Code and Claude Desktop. Never writes or echoes keys.

• One-click Claude Desktop install — download the .mcpb from the latest release and double-click. No JSON editing.

• doctor — shows which keys are set, which tools are visible vs hidden and why, and what to try first.

New tools & skills (64 tools · 17 skills)

• debug_triage — ranked root-cause hypotheses with the cheapest discriminating check for each (Grok 4.3)

• spec_writer — loose request → reviewable spec: user stories, Given/When/Then, out-of-scope, open questions (GPT-5.5)

• diff_review / plan_critique / testgen / security_review — multi-model diff review, adversarial plan red-team, test generation, OWASP/CWE audit

• Skills: /review, /redteam, /spec, /triage, /setup

Fixes

• focus orchestration screen: 37 lines of repeated scaffolding → 10 focused lines

• npm test exits 0 again (uncancelled race timers leaked past Jest teardown)

• GPT-5.5 high-effort reasoning no longer cut off at 3 minutes (timeout 180s → 600s)

Quick Start

Installation

npm install -g tachibot-mcp

Setup wizard

npx -y -p tachibot-mcp tachibot init

Detects your keys and clients, then prints the exact config for Claude Code and Claude Desktop.

Claude Code (one-liner)

claude mcp add tachibot -- npx -y -p tachibot-mcp tachibot

Then verify with /mcp. Add API keys with --env, e.g. --env OPENROUTER_API_KEY=sk-or-xxx --env PERPLEXITY_API_KEY=pplx-xxx.

Setup (Claude Desktop)

One-click (easiest): download tachibot-mcp.mcpb from the latest release and double-click it — Claude Desktop installs the extension with no JSON editing. Add your API keys when prompted (or later via the extension settings).

Gateway Mode (Recommended) — 2 keys, all providers:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tachibot": {
      "command": "tachibot",
      "env": {
        "OPENROUTER_API_KEY": "sk-or-xxx",
        "PERPLEXITY_API_KEY": "pplx-xxx",
        "USE_OPENROUTER_GATEWAY": "true"
      }
    }
  }
}

Direct Mode — One key per provider:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tachibot": {
      "command": "tachibot",
      "env": {
        "PERPLEXITY_API_KEY": "your-key",
        "GROK_API_KEY": "your-key",
        "OPENAI_API_KEY": "your-key",
        "GOOGLE_API_KEY": "your-key",
        "OPENROUTER_API_KEY": "your-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Local Models (1)

local_query — any OpenAI-compatible local server (Ollama / LM Studio / llama.cpp / vLLM). Zero-cost, offline, private; also available as the local jury juror (hermes is accepted as a legacy alias). Runs whatever LOCAL_LLM_MODEL points at — e.g. a Nous Hermes build (ollama pull hermes3). Note the Hermes agent itself is model-agnostic — it runs on 300+ backends (GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, or self-hosted Ollama/vLLM) — so "Hermes" was never a guarantee of distinct weights.

Advanced Modes (bonus)

• Challenger — Critical analysis with multi-model fact-checking

• Verifier — Multi-model consensus verification

• Scout — Hybrid intelligence gathering

Example Usage

Multi-Model Planning

// Create a plan with multi-model council
planner_maker({ task: "Build a REST API with auth and tests", mode: "start" })
// → Grok searches → Qwen analyzes → Kimi decomposes → GPT critiques → Gemini synthesizes

// Execute with checkpoints
planner_runner({ plan: planContent, mode: "step", stepNum: 1 })
// → Automatic verification at 50%, 80% (kimi_decompose), and 100%

Task Decomposition

kimi_decompose({
  task: "Migrate monolith to microservices",
  depth: 3,
  outputFormat: "dependencies"
})
// → Structured subtasks with IDs, parallel flags, acceptance criteria

Code Review

kimi_code({
  task: "review",
  code: "function processPayment(amount, card) { ... }",
  language: "typescript"
})
// → SWE-Bench 76.8% quality analysis

Deep Reasoning

focus({
  query: "Design a scalable event-driven architecture",
  mode: "deep-reasoning",
  models: ["grok", "gemini", "kimi"],
  rounds: 5
})
