// Remote-control tmux sessions for interactive CLIs by sending keystrokes and scraping pane output.
Delegate coding tasks to Codex, Claude Code, or Pi agents via background process. Use when: (1) building/creating new features or apps, (2) reviewing PRs (spawn in temp dir), (3) refactoring large codebases, (4) iterative coding that needs file exploration. NOT for: simple one-liner fixes (just edit), reading code (use read tool), thread-bound ACP harness requests in chat (for example spawn/run Codex or Claude Code in a Discord thread; use sessions_spawn with runtime:"acp"), or any work in ~/clawd workspace (never spawn agents here). Prefer non-interactive CLI modes such as codex exec, claude --print, opencode run, or pi -p.
Use when the user asks to schedule recurring tasks, one-off reminders, timers, or cron-style jobs through the OpenSquilla cron tool.
Use when the user asks to remember, recall, forget, update, search, or inspect durable OpenSquilla memory, including profile facts in USER.md and long-term notes in MEMORY.md or memory/**/*.md.
Multi-round research with explicit methodology, evidence tracking, and citation-tagged synthesis. Trigger on 'deep dive', 'research report', 'literature review', 'investigate X across sources', 'multi-round investigation'. Distinct from the `summarize` skill, which is a single-pass condensation; this skill maintains a state file across iterations, tracks coverage, and produces a long-form report with per-claim citations. Three execution stages: plan (scope into sub-questions), iterate (record evidence per round), compile (synthesize report). The skill itself does not fetch the web โ it tells the host agent which fetches to perform via OpenSquilla's existing web tools, and records what comes back.
Read, edit, or create Microsoft Word `.docx` files. Trigger this skill whenever the user mentions a Word document, .docx file, contract, report, brief, memo, or asks to extract text, modify an existing doc, generate one from a brief, or audit tracked changes. Three execution paths: text-and-structure extraction, in-place edit-by-run (preserves styles), and create-from-scratch with python-docx. Falls back to OOXML unzip-and-patch for layout work python-docx cannot reach.
Render HTML (with CSS) to a PDF file. Trigger when the user wants to export a styled report, invoice, label, or any HTML/Jinja-rendered page to PDF. Uses WeasyPrint, which supports a meaningful subset of CSS Paged Media (page size, margins, headers/footers, page-break-before/after). Optional dependency โ install via `pip install opensquilla[document-extras]` or `uv add weasyprint` because WeasyPrint pulls in native libraries (Pango, Cairo, fontconfig) that need OS-level packages.

For interactive TUIs (Claude Code, Codex, etc.), split text and Enter into separate sends to avoid paste/multiline edge cases:
tmux send-keys -t shared -l -- "Please apply the patch in src/foo.ts"
sleep 0.1
tmux send-keys -t shared Enter
# Look for prompts
tmux capture-pane -t worker-3 -p | tail -10 | grep -E "โฏ|Yes.*No|proceed|permission"
# Send 'y' and Enter
tmux send-keys -t worker-3 'y' Enter
# Or select numbered option
tmux send-keys -t worker-3 '2' Enter
