Execute code operations, manage files, run Git workflows, and handle terminal commands through natural language prompts for development tasks.

Instructions

Claude Code Agent: Your versatile multi-modal assistant for code, file, Git, and terminal operations via Claude CLI. Use workFolder for contextual execution.

• File ops: Create, read, (fuzzy) edit, move, copy, delete, list files, analyze/ocr images, file content analysis └─ e.g., "Create /tmp/log.txt with 'system boot'", "Edit main.py to replace 'debug_mode = True' with 'debug_mode = False'", "List files in /src", "Move a specific section somewhere else"

• Code: Generate / analyse / refactor / fix └─ e.g. "Generate Python to parse CSV→JSON", "Find bugs in my_script.py"

• Git: Stage ▸ commit ▸ push ▸ tag (any workflow) └─ "Commit '/workspace/src/main.java' with 'feat: user auth' to develop."

• Terminal: Run any CLI cmd or open URLs └─ "npm run build", "Open https://developer.mozilla.org"

• Web search + summarise content on-the-fly

• Multi-step workflows (Version bumps, changelog updates, release tagging, etc.)

• GitHub integration Create PRs, check CI status

• Confused or stuck on an issue? Ask Claude Code for a second opinion, it might surprise you!

• Task Orchestration with "Boomerang" pattern └─ Break down complex tasks into subtasks for Claude Code to execute separately └─ Pass parent task ID and get results back for complex workflows └─ Specify return mode (summary or full) for tailored responses

Prompt tips

  1. Be concise, explicit & step-by-step for complex tasks. No need for niceties, this is a tool to get things done.

  2. For multi-line text, write it to a temporary file in the project root, use that file, then delete it.

  3. If you get a timeout, split the task into smaller steps.

  4. Seeking a second opinion/analysis: If you're stuck or want advice, you can ask claude_code to analyze a problem and suggest solutions. Clearly state in your prompt that you are looking for analysis only and no actual file modifications should be made.

  5. If workFolder is set to the project path, there is no need to repeat that path in the prompt and you can use relative paths for files.

  6. Claude Code is really good at complex multi-step file operations and refactorings and faster than your native edit features.

  7. Combine file operations, README updates, and Git commands in a sequence.

  8. Task Orchestration: For complex workflows, use parentTaskId to create subtasks and returnMode: "summary" to get concise results back.

  9. Claude can do much more, just ask it!

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
promptYesThe detailed natural language prompt for Claude to execute.
workFolderNoMandatory when using file operations or referencing any file. The working directory for the Claude CLI execution.
parentTaskIdNoOptional ID of the parent task that created this task (for task orchestration/boomerang).
returnModeNoHow results should be returned: summary (concise) or full (detailed). Defaults to full.
taskDescriptionNoShort description of the task for better organization and tracking in orchestrated workflows.
modeNoWhen MCP_USE_ROOMODES=true, specifies the mode from .roomodes to use (e.g., "boomerang-mode", "coder", "designer", etc.).

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It does an excellent job describing the tool's capabilities, constraints (workFolder requirement, timeout handling), and operational patterns (boomerang orchestration, return modes). However, it doesn't explicitly mention authentication requirements, rate limits, or error handling specifics.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness2/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is excessively long (over 500 words) with redundant information, marketing language ('it might surprise you!'), and tips that belong in documentation rather than a tool description. While well-structured with bullet points, it violates the principle that every sentence should earn its place in a tool description.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a complex 6-parameter tool with no annotations and no output schema, the description provides substantial context about capabilities, constraints, and usage patterns. However, the lack of output schema means the description should ideally explain what kind of results to expect, which it only partially addresses through returnMode discussion.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all 6 parameters thoroughly. The description references parameters like workFolder, parentTaskId, and returnMode in context, but doesn't add significant semantic value beyond what's already in the schema descriptions. The baseline of 3 is appropriate when the schema does the heavy lifting.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states this is a 'versatile multi-modal assistant for code, file, Git, and terminal operations via Claude CLI' with specific examples of each capability. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools (convert_task_markdown, health) by being a comprehensive execution tool rather than a conversion or health check utility.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description provides extensive guidance on when and how to use the tool, including explicit 'Prompt tips' with 9 specific recommendations, examples for different operation types, and guidance on task orchestration. It clearly distinguishes between analysis-only requests and execution requests in tip #4.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
