# Spawn Skills This directory contains skills for spawning external processes in new terminal windows. ## Overview Spawn skills enable Claude Code to launch external processes: - **AI coding agents** (Claude, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, OpenCode, Copilot) - **Generic CLI commands** (ffmpeg, curl, python, npm, etc.) Both use the `fork_terminal` utility to create isolated terminal sessions. ## Child Skills | Skill | Description | Use Case | |-------|-------------|----------| | [agent](./agent/SKILL.md) | Spawn AI coding agents | Multi-provider orchestration | | [terminal](./terminal/SKILL.md) | Spawn generic CLI commands | Non-AI command execution | ## When to Use ### Use spawn:agent when: - Delegating tasks to external AI providers - Need interactive CLI sessions with AI agents - Browser-based authentication is required - Real-time streaming output needed ### Use spawn:terminal when: - Running non-AI CLI commands (ffmpeg, curl, etc.) - Need interactive terminal for user input - Long-running processes that shouldn't block Claude ### Use orchestration:native-invoke instead when: - Automating multi-provider tasks - Need parallel execution across providers - Clean result collection is import

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill spawn-aiskillstore-marketplace-3 --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.
