Description
herdr is an agent skill for controlling Herdr, a terminal multiplexer built for coding agents. Herdr organises terminals into workspaces, tabs and panes, recognises the coding agents running inside those panes, and exposes the current session through its herdr command-line interface. The skill is careful about when it applies. It should be used only when you explicitly mention Herdr or ask it to inspect or control panes. Before any control command, the agent checks that it is running inside a Herdr-managed pane, using the Herdr environment variable, and if the check fails it says so and stops rather than issuing commands. Use it when you run several coding agents in Herdr and want an agent to inspect or direct the panes. It is part of the herdrdev/herdr repository on GitHub. The listing shows it as free. Install it with npx skills add https://github.com/herdrdev/herdr --skill herdr.…
