| description | Use VoltAgent as the default Codex workflow for local Workspace skills, paid orchestration, and deterministic Claude escalation, while keeping Mimir as the backend for durable memory and local execution. |
VoltAgent Default Workflow
Use this as the default Codex workflow when VoltAgent is installed through native Codex skill discovery.
Stable routing contract
- Use the local VoltAgent runtime for:
client-skill
client-paid-runtime
- Use Mimir for:
mimir-retrieval
mimir-local-execution
mimir-memory-write
- Use Claude only through named profiles:
Required operating rules
- Use Mimir for durable memory retrieval, governed writes, traces, and local coding execution.
- Do not route
workspace_* behavior through Mimir.
- Use Claude only through deterministic client-selected profiles.
- Do not let the model choose its own
roleId or skillPackId.
- Do not recursively escalate from Claude into another Claude escalation.
Recommended workflow
- Run
voltagent-doctor if the home-global VoltAgent config has not been bootstrapped yet.
- Run
voltagent-bootstrap-default-runtime if ~/.codex/voltagent/client-config.json is missing.
- Use
voltagent-status to confirm the resolved config source, model chain, and Claude readiness.
- Use
voltagent-route-preview when you need to verify whether work should stay local, go to Mimir, or escalate to Claude.
- Use
voltagent-profiles, voltagent-claude-handoff, or voltagent-claude-auto-handoff when Claude escalation is warranted.
Failure policy
- Without Mimir, local Workspace skills can still work, but
mimir-retrieval, mimir-local-execution, and mimir-memory-write routes are blocked or degraded.
- Without Claude profile configuration,
claude-escalation is blocked rather than silently falling back to fuzzy paid-model behavior.
