# Multi-CLI agent invocation
|
|
|
|
> *Cross-LLM agent execution. Same agent definition, different backend.*
|
|
|
|
KeiSeiKit agents are markdown files. Any LLM CLI that takes a prompt can
|
|
host them — `kei run-via` is the launcher that bridges them.
|
|
|
|
## Backends
|
|
|
|
Registered in `_primitives/cli-backends.toml` (SSoT). Installed locally
|
|
via your own subscription / package manager:
|
|
|
|
| Backend | CLI binary | Non-interactive flag | Native `--agent` | Notes |
|
|
|----------|-----------|----------------------|------------------|-------|
|
|
| claude | `claude` | `-p` | yes | Claude Code (Anthropic) |
|
|
| grok | `grok` | `--print` | yes | xAI Grok Build TUI |
|
|
| agy | `agy` | `--print` | no | Google Antigravity (alias: `antigravity`) |
|
|
| copilot | `copilot` | `--prompt` | no | GitHub Copilot CLI (`@github/copilot`) |
|
|
| kimi | `kimi` | stdin | no | Moonshot Kimi (primarily TUI/ACP) |
|
|
| codex | `codex` | `-p` | no | OpenAI Codex (register-only) |
|
|
|
|
Run `kei run-via list` to see which are installed on the current machine
|
|
and to list available agent names.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Invoke the 'critic' agent through Grok with a task:
|
|
kei run-via grok critic "review src/auth.rs for variant analysis"
|
|
|
|
# Same agent, different backend:
|
|
kei run-via agy critic "review src/auth.rs"
|
|
kei run-via copilot critic "review src/auth.rs"
|
|
kei run-via claude critic "review src/auth.rs"
|
|
|
|
# Point at an arbitrary agent .md (not in ~/.claude/agents/):
|
|
kei run-via grok --file=/tmp/my-agent.md "do the thing"
|
|
|
|
# Backend's native --agent flag (grok/claude only):
|
|
KEI_NATIVE_AGENT=1 kei run-via grok critic "review src/auth.rs"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## How it works
|
|
|
|
1. Reads `~/.claude/agents/<agent-name>.md` (assembler-generated prompt).
|
|
2. Strips YAML frontmatter.
|
|
3. Composes with task as: `<agent prompt>\n\n---\n\nTASK FOR THIS RUN:\n<task>`.
|
|
4. Execs the backend's non-interactive CLI with the composed prompt.
|
|
|
|
No agent file is modified. No new tokens are issued. Subscription
|
|
authentication is whatever each CLI uses (its own login / config dir).
|
|
|
|
## When to use each
|
|
|
|
This is a tool, not a recommendation. Each backend has different
|
|
strengths; the substrate is agnostic about which you pick. Pick by:
|
|
|
|
- **Familiarity** — the CLI you already use day-to-day.
|
|
- **Subscription cost** — burn the one with cheaper marginal cost first.
|
|
- **Specific feature** — e.g. `grok --agent` for native sub-agent
|
|
switching mid-conversation; `agy --sandbox` for terminal restriction.
|
|
- **Independent second opinion** — same agent, different model, see if
|
|
conclusions diverge.
|
|
|
|
## Adding a new backend
|
|
|
|
1. Add a `[backend.<name>]` table to `_primitives/cli-backends.toml`.
|
|
2. Add a case arm in `scripts/kei-agent-cli.sh` `backend_bin()` and
|
|
`backend_invoke()` for the new CLI's print-flag.
|
|
3. Add a row to the table above.
|
|
|
|
## What it is NOT
|
|
|
|
- Not a router — picks no backend for you; you ask, it dispatches.
|
|
- Not a federation — each backend runs independently with its own
|
|
context; there is no cross-backend state.
|
|
- Not a wrapper around the backend's tool surface — what the CLI can
|
|
do (Bash, file edits, MCP, etc.) is determined by that CLI, not
|
|
KeiSeiKit. The substrate only ships the prompt.
