What this skill does
Claude Code — Hermes Orchestration Guide Delegate coding tasks to Claude Code (Anthropic's autonomous coding agent CLI) via the Hermes terminal. Claude Code v2.x can read files, write code, run shell commands, spawn subagents, and manage git workflows autonomously. Prerequisites Install: npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code Auth: run claude once to log in (browser OAuth for Pro/Max, or set ANTHROPICAPIKEY) Console auth: claude auth login --console for API key billing SSO auth: claude auth login --sso for Enterprise Check status: claude auth status (JSON) or claude auth status --text (human-readable) Health check: claude doctor — checks auto-updater and installation health Version check: claude --version (requires v2.x+) Update: claude update or claude upgrade Two Orchestration Modes Hermes interacts with Claude Code in two fundamentally different ways. Choose based on the task. Mode 1: Print Mode (-p) — Non-Interactive (PREFERRED for most tasks) Print mode runs a one-shot task, returns the result, and exits. No PTY needed. No interactive prompts. This is the cleanest integration path. When to use print mode: One-shot coding tasks (fix a bug, add a feature, refactor) CI/CD automation and scripting Structured data extraction with --json-schema Piped input processing (cat file claude -p "analyze this") Any task where you don't need multi-turn conversation Print mode skips ALL interactive dialogs — no workspace trust prompt, no permission confirmations. This makes it ideal for automation. Mode 2: Interactive PTY via tmux — Multi-Turn Sessions Interactive mode gives you a full conversational REPL where you can send follow-up prompts, use slash commands, and watch Claude work in real time. Requires tmux orchestration. …
