About agent-manager-skill
agent-manager-skill is a guide for coordinating multiple local CLI agents in separate tmux sessions. It covers starting and stopping authorized agents, assigning tasks, and monitoring logs, while requiring users to verify the installed runtime and commands.
Key features
- 01Manage agents in separate tmux sessions
- 02Start and stop authorized agents
- 03Assign tasks and monitor output
- 04Inspect agent lists and sessions
- 05Bounded operation and result verification
Use cases
- 01Run several local CLI agents in parallel
- 02Assign work to a configured agent
- 03Follow an agent's logs during execution
Install
Copy the command and run it in a terminal.

When to Use
Use this skill when you need to:
- run multiple local CLI agents in parallel (separate tmux sessions)
- start/stop agents and tail their logs
- assign tasks to agents and monitor output
- prepare a scoped plan for repeated agent work only when scheduling is explicitly requested
Prerequisites
This AAS entrypoint does not bundle the manager runtime. The historical upstream URL was unavailable during this review; do not execute its examples until an actual reviewed installation and CLI help confirm them. The original install option is retained as attribution, not an automatic setup step:
git clone https://github.com/fractalmind-ai/agent-manager-skill.git
Historical Upstream Command Shapes
The clone directory above differs from the agent-manager/ path below. Resolve the actual installed script path rather than assuming these examples work from the current directory. Employee IDs and team files are examples and must be replaced with verified workspace configuration.
python3 agent-manager/scripts/main.py doctor
python3 agent-manager/scripts/main.py list
python3 agent-manager/scripts/main.py start EMP_0001
python3 agent-manager/scripts/main.py monitor EMP_0001 --follow
python3 agent-manager/scripts/main.py assign EMP_0002 <<'EOF'
Follow teams/fractalmind-ai-maintenance.md Workflow
EOF
Bounded Operation
List the actual configured agents and existing tmux sessions first. Starting, assigning or stopping an agent requires authorization for that task and target. Preserve unrelated sessions, record the specific session/PID and inspected command, and redact logs before sharing. A session being alive does not prove its task completed; verify the requested result. No cron installer or automatic scheduler is bundled, so this guide does not claim cron support.
Notes
- Requires
tmuxandpython3. - Agents are configured under an
agents/directory (see the repo for examples).
Limitations
- Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
- Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
- Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
