Delegate a well-scoped chunk of WORK (implementation, refactor, bulk transform, focused research, first-draft) to Codex (GPT-5.6) or Antigravity (Gemini) as a subagent via PAL's clink tool — to offload effort, parallelize, or save your context. Use when you have a self-contained, verifiable subtask a cheaper agent can do while you orchestrate. NOT for gathering opinions/consensus (use clink-brainstorm) and NOT for orchestration/judgment (keep that yourself). Covers which agent fits which task…

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

# clink-subagents

> **Requires [PAL MCP server](https://github.com/BeehiveInnovations/pal-mcp-server)** connected, with `clink` configured for `codex` and `antigravity`, and optionally `cursor` (see `conf/cli_clients/*.json`; Antigravity needs the [xenodeve/pal-mcp-server](https://github.com/xenodeve/pal-mcp-server) fork for its ConPTY driver on Windows, and the same fork ships the `cursor` preset). This skill is an orchestration layer on top of `mcp__pal__clink` — it does nothing standalone.

## What this skill is, and what the other one is

Two skills sit on `clink`. They are not variants of each other, and the distinction decides every routing choice below.

| | What it is | What comes back |
|---|---|---|
| **`clink-subagents`** — this file | **`clink` used as your subagents.** You hand out chunks of the work and they come back done | **finished work** — an implementation, a refactor, a bulk transform, a first draft, a focused lookup |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add xenodeve/xeno-skills/clink-subagents@sha256:75a042e991f12d1a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260819.1835768, 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.
