CLI Coding Agents

When to use this skill

• Use when the user request matches this skill's domain and capabilities.
• Use when this workflow or toolchain is explicitly requested.

When not to use this skill

• Do not use when another skill is a better direct match for the task.
• Do not use when the request is outside this skill's scope.

Launch coding agents across Claude, Droid, and OpenCode CLI platforms with unified profile management and flexible configuration.

Quick Start

Profile Management (All CLIs)

List all profiles:

ai-claude-start list
ai-droid-start list
ai-opencode-start list

Setup wizard:

ai-claude-start setup
ai-droid-start setup
ai-opencode-start setup

Set default profile:

ai-claude-start default <profile-name>
ai-droid-start default <profile-name>
ai-opencode-start default <profile-name>

Delete profile:

ai-claude-start delete <profile-name>
ai-droid-start delete <profile-name>
ai-opencode-start delete <profile-name>

System health check:

ai-claude-start doctor
ai-droid-start doctor
ai-opencode-start doctor

Launch Commands

Claude CLI

Basic launch:

claude-start                           # Uses default profile (ZAI)
claude-start ZAI                       # Use specific profile
claude-start MinimaxM2.1

With flags (passed to Claude):

claude-start --continue                   # Continue last session
claude-start ZAI --model claude-sonnet-4-5  # Override model
claude-start --dangerously-skip-permissions --continue

Cross-command invocation:

ai-claude-start ZAI                    # Uses Claude binary
ai-droid-start --claude ZAI           # Force Claude from droid-start
ai-opencode-start --claude ZAI        # Force Claude from opencode-start

Droid CLI

Basic launch:

droid-start                            # Uses default profile (ZAI)
droid-start ZAI                        # Use specific profile
droid-start deepseek-v3.2

With flags (passed to Droid):

droid-start --continue
droid-start GLM-4.7 --model claude-sonnet-4-5  # Override model

Cross-command invocation:

ai-droid-start ZAI                     # Uses Droid binary
ai-claude-start --droid ZAI            # Force Droid from claude-start
ai-opencode-start --droid ZAI          # Force Droid from opencode-start

OpenCode CLI

Basic launch:

opencode-start                          # Uses default profile (ZAI)
opencode-start ZAI                      # Use specific profile
opencode-start code-fast-1

With flags (passed to OpenCode):

opencode-start --continue                # Continue last session
opencode-start ZAI --model anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5  # Override model
opencode-start --run "explain this file"  # Non-interactive mode

Cross-command invocation:

ai-opencode-start ZAI                  # Uses OpenCode binary
ai-claude-start --opencode ZAI         # Force OpenCode from claude-start
ai-droid-start --opencode ZAI          # Force OpenCode from droid-start

Advanced Usage

Environment Variable Overrides

Custom Claude command:

CLAUDE_CMD="/path/to/custom/claude" claude-start ZAI

Custom Droid command:

DROID_CMD="/path/to/custom/droid" droid-start ZAI

Custom OpenCode command:

OPENCODE_CMD="/path/to/custom/opencode" opencode-start ZAI

Testing with Custom Commands

Test environment injection (doesn't actually launch CLI):

claude-start ZAI --cmd "node -e \"console.log(process.env.ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN)\""
droid-start ZAI --cmd "echo Testing with $ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN"
opencode-start ZAI --cmd "node -e \"console.log(process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY)\""

Profile Selection

Use default profile (interactive if multiple):

claude-start

Use specific profile:

claude-start ZAI

Interactive selection (if multiple profiles):

claude-start
# Prompts: "Select a profile to use:"
#   ZAI (default)
#   MinimaxM2.1
#   deepseek-v3.2
#   ...
