Claude Code Pro ⚡

Production-grade Claude Code workflow that doesn't waste your tokens.

The Problem with Other Skills

Most Claude Code tmux skills work like this:

Start task → Poll every 30s → Poll → Poll → Poll → Done
                 🔥 tokens      🔥       🔥       🔥

Each poll reads 100-200 lines of terminal output, feeds it to your agent, and burns tokens deciding "is it done yet?" A 20-minute task = 40 polls = thousands of wasted tokens.

How This Skill Works

Start task (with callback) → Wait → 📩 Notification → Read result (50 lines)
                               😴 zero tokens          ⚡ one read

The task itself tells you when it's done. Your agent sleeps until notified. One lightweight check confirms the result. That's it.

Token Savings Breakdown

80-97% token savings on supervision alone.

Smart Dispatch: Know When NOT to Start

Before spawning Claude Code, ask:

The fastest token savings come from not spawning a session at all.

Quick Start

# Start a task — note the callback at the end
bash {baseDir}/scripts/start.sh --label auth-refactor --workdir ~/project --task "Refactor auth module to use JWT.

When completely finished, run: openclaw system event --text \"Done: JWT auth refactor complete\" --mode now"

That's the key line: openclaw system event --text "Done: ..." --mode now. The task notifies your agent on completion. No polling needed.

Task from file (complex requirements)

bash {baseDir}/scripts/start.sh --label my-feature --workdir ~/project \
  --task-file /path/to/requirements.md --mode auto

Write detailed requirements once upfront → fewer mid-task corrections → fewer tokens.

Monitor (Only When Needed)

# Lightweight check — 50 lines, minimal tokens
bash {baseDir}/scripts/monitor.sh --session my-task --lines 50

# JSON mode — structured, even fewer tokens for agent parsing
bash {baseDir}/scripts/monitor.sh --session my-task --json

# Send follow-up (use sparingly — write requirements upfront instead)
bash {baseDir}/scripts/send.sh --session my-task --text "Also add unit tests"

# Compact context when running long
bash {baseDir}/scripts/send.sh --session my-task --compact

Manage Sessions

# List all active sessions
bash {baseDir}/scripts/list.sh          # human-readable
bash {baseDir}/scripts/list.sh --json   # structured

# Stop sessions
bash {baseDir}/scripts/stop.sh --session my-task
bash {baseDir}/scripts/stop.sh --all

Attach (Human SSH Access)

tmux -L cc attach -t cc-\x3Clabel>

Agent Workflow

1. DECIDE — Is this a 3+ file task? No → just edit. Yes → continue.
2. START — start.sh with detailed task + completion callback
3. WAIT — Do other work. Zero tokens spent watching.
4. NOTIFIED — Receive "Done: ..." event
5. CHECK — monitor.sh --lines 50 to confirm result
6. CLEANUP — stop.sh to end session

Fallback: If no notification after 15 minutes, one lightweight poll with --json.

Completion Callback Template

Always append to your task prompt:

When completely finished, run this command to notify:
openclaw system event --text "Done: [brief description]" --mode now

This is what makes the whole approach work. The task signals completion; your agent doesn't need to guess.

Modes

Design Choices

• Isolated tmux socket (-L cc) — doesn't interfere with your tmux sessions
• cc- prefix on all sessions — easy to list/filter
• Bracketed paste for multi-line prompts — no escaping issues
• JSON output from list/monitor — agent-friendly, fewer tokens to parse
