Start or reuse a named Claude CLI worker in a visible herdr-core terminal from a Claude Code session (App Code tab first), return its portal record, then coordinate through Claude Code cross-session messaging.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# repo-harness-herdr-portal

Bot entrypoint. Explicit invoke only. herdr-core (`hc`) owns the terminal and
its name. Herdr.app shows it as a pane. Claude Code owns the message channel.
The Skill owns no state, daemon, registry or transport.

## Outcome

One live Claude CLI agent in an hc terminal named `portal-<slug>`, shown in a
Herdr.app pane, with its cwd under `/private/tmp`. The caller gets one portal
record (v2) copied from command output in the same run. The start command
carries the bootstrap brief. After it, all task traffic uses `SendMessage` or
an @mention of `portal-<slug>`.

## Mode Selection

- Spawn or reuse, gates, record and error codes: `references/spawn.md`.
- Find the worker, send work, repair a missing row: `references/messaging.md`.
- Not for review or acceptance: use `repo-harness-cross-review` or
  `repo-harness review round --launch app-terminal`.
- Already in an hc terminal (`HC_TERMINAL_ID` set): use `hc` and `herdr-app`
  directly ([Herdr Dispatch](https://github.com/Ancienttwo/repo-harness/blob/main/docs/reference-configs/herdr-notify.md#herdr-dispatch)).
- Not for Codex or any second-model terminal in v2.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ancienttwo/repo-harness/repo-harness-herdr-portal@sha256:34933e45a739b025

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261106.f4c2d9a, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
