# PROXY_MODE Reference Guide ## What is PROXY_MODE? PROXY_MODE is a directive that tells an agent to delegate its task to an external AI model via Claudish. ## How It Works 1. **Orchestrator** launches Task with PROXY_MODE-enabled agent 2. **Agent** detects `PROXY_MODE: {model}` at start of prompt 3. **Agent** extracts model ID and actual task 4. **Agent** runs `claudish --model {model}` with the task 5. **Agent** returns external model's response ## The PROXY_MODE Directive Format: ``` PROXY_MODE: {model_id} {actual task} ``` Example: ``` PROXY_MODE: x-ai/grok-code-fast-1 Review the architecture plan at ai-docs/plan.md ``` ## Supported Agents **Total: 18 PROXY_MODE-enabled agents across 3 plugins** ### agentdev plugin (3 agents) | Agent | subagent_type | Best For | |-------|---------------|----------| | reviewer | `agentdev:reviewer` | Implementation quality reviews | | architect | `agentdev:architect` | Design plan reviews | | developer | `agentdev:developer` | Implementation with external models | ### frontend plugin (8 agents) | Agent | subagent_type | Best For | |-------|---------------|----------| | plan-reviewer | `frontend:plan-reviewer` | Architecture plan validation | | r

Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill proxy-mode-reference-involvex-involvex-claude-mark-2 --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
