Ask Claude (Local CLI)

Use the locally installed Claude CLI as a direct external advisor for focused questions, reviews, or second opinions.

Usage

/ask-claude <question or task>

Routing

Preferred: Local CLI execution

Run Claude through the canonical OMX CLI command path (no MCP routing):

omx ask claude "{{ARGUMENTS}}"

Exact non-interactive Claude CLI command from claude --help:

claude -p "{{ARGUMENTS}}"
# equivalent: claude --print "{{ARGUMENTS}}"

If needed, adapt to the user's installed Claude CLI variant while keeping local execution as the default path.

Legacy compatibility entrypoints (./scripts/ask-claude.sh, npm run ask:claude -- ...) are transitional wrappers.

Missing binary behavior

If claude is not found, do not switch to MCP. Instead:

1. Explain that local Claude CLI is required for this skill.
2. Ask the user to install/configure Claude CLI.
3. Provide a quick verification command:

claude --version

Artifact requirement

After local execution, save a markdown artifact to:

.omx/artifacts/claude-<slug>-<timestamp>.md

Minimum artifact sections:

1. Original user task
2. Final prompt sent to Claude CLI
3. Claude output (raw)
4. Concise summary
5. Action items / next steps

Task: {{ARGUMENTS}}
