Shmerminal

Run interactive CLI tools (claude code, aider, codex, dev servers, builds, REPLs, debuggers — anything PTY-based) inside durable sessions that survive across turns, agent restarts, and laptop closings. Use this skill when (1) you need to run anything interactive that takes more than a few seconds, (2) state must persist between turns (a build cache, an open editor, a paused debugger, an in-progress refactor), (3) the user wants to monitor or interject from their phone, (4) you want to run multiple parallel tool sessions you can return to later, or (5) the user explicitly asks for a "shmerm session", "durable session", "background session", or "session I can watch". Provides session lifecycle (run/list/attach/kill), a live web viewer with kill button, optional public tunnel, and an inbox channel for human interjections that arrive while you are working.

Diagnose and recover wedged shmerminal/openclaw sessions via the local shvix daemon. Use when the user reports a stuck terminal, frozen PTY, lockfile, port conflict, or corrupted session state.
