Does this skill require the Claude CLI to be installed?

Yes, you must have the `claude` CLI installed and available in your system's PATH for this skill to function correctly.

What is the primary purpose of the Ask Claude skill?

It allows a Claude Code session to call the local Claude CLI, enabling recursive AI assistance, task delegation to specific models, and secondary logic validation.

Is it possible to continue a previous CLI conversation?

Yes, the skill supports the `-c` or `--continue` flag, which allows you to resume the context of your most recent CLI interaction.

Can I specify which Claude model to use for a task?

Yes, you can use the `--model` option to select between different versions such as Opus, Sonnet, or Haiku depending on your needs.

How do I use this skill non-interactively?

By using the `-p` (print mode) flag, the skill runs the Claude CLI without a workspace trust dialog and outputs results directly to stdout.

Developer Tools

Leverages the local Claude CLI to provide recursive coding assistance, logic validation, and multi-model task delegation.

About

The Ask Claude skill bridges the gap between your active Claude Code session and the local Claude command-line interface, enabling advanced recursive AI workflows. This skill allows developers to obtain a 'second opinion' on complex logic, delegate specific sub-tasks to specialized models like Opus or Haiku, and automate code generation through non-interactive CLI commands. It is particularly effective for debugging, cross-referencing implementation patterns, and maintaining contextual continuity across multiple AI-driven development tasks without leaving the terminal environment.

Key Features

14 GitHub stars
Support for model switching between Sonnet, Opus, and Haiku
