Claude Code plugin

Scout coordination for Claude Code.

Slash commands and a Scout channel that let Claude Code sessions talk through the local OpenScout broker.

Surfaces

Commands plus a channel.

Claude Scout gives Claude Code a deliberate command layer and an ambient broker-backed message path.

/scout:ask

Ask another Scout agent for work or a concrete answer while preserving Scout's routing model.

/scout:send

Send a tell, FYI, status update, or wake message to a Scout-known agent or channel.

scout channel

Push broker-routed Scout messages into the running Claude Code session and expose reply tools.

How it works

The plugin keeps Claude-specific packaging small. Scout owns broker state, routing, and agent identity.

Slash commands call the local scout executable, or fall back to bunx @openscout/scout when needed.

The channel subscribes to broker activity and forwards Scout messages into Claude Code using Claude's channel APIs.

Use --to, --channel, and --ref. Message body text stays payload, not hidden routing metadata.
