What this skill does
AI Maestro Agent Messaging Purpose Enable communication between AI coding agents using AI Maestro's dual-channel messaging system. Agents are identified by their agent ID or alias, with tmux session names as a fallback. Supports both SENDING and RECEIVING messages. CRITICAL: Inter-Agent Communication YOU ARE AN AGENT - This skill is for agent-to-agent communication, NOT human-agent communication. IMPORTANT: Understanding "Your Messages" When the human operator says "check your messages" or "read your messages": YOUR inbox = Messages addressed TO YOUR AGENT (from anyone - operator, other agents, etc.) NOT the operator's inbox = You check YOUR inbox, not the operator's Example: Human says: "Check your messages" You are agent: backend-api You check: ~/.aimaestro/messages/inbox/backend-api/ (YOUR inbox) These are messages addressed TO backend-api (from any sender) You DO NOT check: The operator's inbox or any other agent's inbox Agent Identity Your inbox = Messages addressed TO YOUR AGENT (from any sender) Your agent ID = Unique identifier for this agent (can also use agent name as fallback) Your agent name = The tmux session you're running in (get with tmux display-message -p '#S') Your inbox location = ~/.aimaestro/messages/inbox/YOUR-AGENT-ID/ or ~/.aimaestro/messages/inbox/YOUR-AGENT-NAME/ You do NOT read: ❌ The operator's inbox ❌ Other agents' inboxes ❌ Messages not addressed to your agent You DO read: ✅ Messages addressed TO YOUR AGENT ✅ YOUR OWN inbox only ✅ Your agent's inbox: ~/.aimaestro/messages/inbox/YOUR-AGENT-ID/ When to Use This Skill Sending (Agent-to-Agent): User (operator) says "send a message to [another-agent]" User says "notify [another-agent]" or "alert [another-agent]" User wants YOU to communicate with ANOTHER agent You need to send urgent alerts or requests to OTHER AGENTS Receiving (Check YOUR OWN Inbox): User says "check my inbox" or "check my messages" = Use check-aimaestro-messages.sh User says "read my messages" or "read message X" = Use re …
