Quick brief

Use OpenClaude when an operator needs a terminal coding-agent workflow that keeps provider setup, model selection, file tools, bash, agents, MCP, slash commands, streaming output, session resume, and background task runs inside one repeatable CLI. The upstream README documents OpenAI-compatible APIs, Gemini, GitHub Models, Codex OAuth, Codex, Ollama, Atomic Chat, MCP, agents, tasks, file tools, grep/glob, slash commands, background sessions, resume, and fork behavior.

How it works

What this skill actually does

Invoke this instead of using a provider’s normal product when the work should happen inside a repository with repeatable terminal controls, saved provider profiles, local or cloud model choice, and reviewable coding-agent sessions. The scope boundary is the coding-agent CLI run: install OpenClaude, configure a provider profile or environment, start or resume a session, run file/tool-backed coding work, and inspect changes. It is not a generic model provider listing or a broad SDK card.

Inputs and prerequisites: Node.js 22+, npm, ripgrep recommended, provider API key or local model backend, optional MCP servers.

Setup notes: npm install -g @gitlawb/openclaude@latest, then run openclaude and use /provider for guided provider setup or pass provider environment variables explicitly.

Source and verification boundary: use https://openclaude.gitlawb.com as the canonical reference before running the workflow; keep commands, API calls, CLI usage, and generated outputs reviewable against that upstream source.

Framework fit: publish this as a Multi-Framework workflow only when the operator can invoke the documented toolchain directly, rather than treating the upstream project as a generic product listing.
