Ask AI Provider (Async)

Send the user's request to specified AI provider asynchronously.

Usage

The first argument must be the provider name, followed by the message:

• gemini - Send to Gemini
• codex - Send to Codex
• opencode - Send to OpenCode
• droid - Send to Droid

Execution (MANDATORY)

Bash(CCB_CALLER=claude ask $PROVIDER "$MESSAGE")

Rules

• After running the command, say "[Provider] processing..." and immediately end your turn.
• Do not wait for results or check status in the same turn.
• The task ID and log file path will be displayed for tracking.

Examples

• /ask gemini What is 12+12?
• /ask codex Refactor this code
• /ask opencode Analyze this bug
• /ask droid Execute this task

Notes

• ask already runs in background by default; no manual nohup is needed.
• If it fails, check backend health with the corresponding ping command (ping <provider> (e.g., ping gemini)).
