Channel skill that connects a CLI REPL to a Claude-like backend via a Unix socket, routing user input to the agent and delivering responses back to the REPL.
The Shell Channel skill wires a readline-based CLI REPL to an agent backend using a Unix domain socket. It routes user input from the zylos shell process to the agent (via c4-receive) and returns the agent's response through a small send helper (scripts/send.js) which writes back to the REPL socket. This enables an interactive command-line conversational mode where the agent drives the REPL output.
Use this skill to provide an interactive CLI experience: debugging, developer tooling, or local agent experimentation where low-latency REPL interactions are required. It's not user-invocable from normal chat (user-invocable: false) but is essential for tooling integrations and local shells.
Works with Claude-style or Code-capable agents that can be tied to a unix-socket channel; suitable for CLI-capable assistants and local agent runtimes.
Zylos Shell Channel is a CLI REPL communication skill that routes Claude responses to a Unix domain socket. The SKILL.md is clean and well-structured, describing the socket protocol clearly. The bundled send.js script is simple, uses only node:net, and has proper error handling. Script was skipped during testing (JS not in runnable extensions). Niche utility limited to zylos framework users.
Clean, minimal skill. No security concerns. The .js script couldn't be run by the auditor but manual review shows it's benign — just connects to a local Unix socket and sends a message. Very niche audience.
Task Scheduler
Schedule and dispatch one-time, recurring and interval tasks to an agent runtime via the C4 comm-bridge for autonomous execution.
Check Context
Report current context/window and token usage across supported runtimes so agents can decide when to rotate or trim conversation history.
System Health Check
Run a periodic system health check: verify PM2 services, disk and memory thresholds, and produce logs/alerts for operators when issues are detected.
