Use when a Codex or generic local agent needs a focused second opinion from Claude CLI without MCP routing.

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

# Ask Claude

## Purpose

Use local Claude Code CLI as an external advisor for focused questions, reviews, or design checks. The workflow is local-first and always leaves a Markdown artifact.

## When to Use

- Need a Claude second opinion from Codex App or another shell-capable agent.
- Want reviewable output from `claude -p` saved for later.
- Do not use when Claude CLI is missing or unauthenticated.
- Do not use as an MCP fallback.

## Inputs

- A specific prompt or task.
- Local `claude` command available in PATH.
- Optional artifact directory.

## Workflow

Run through APX:

```bash
apx ask-claude "Review this patch for correctness"
```

Equivalent nested APX and direct CLI calls:

```bash
apx ask claude "Review this patch for correctness"
```

```bash
claude -p "Review this patch for correctness"
```

If `claude` is missing, stop and ask the user to install/configure Claude Code CLI. Verify with:

```bash
claude --version
```

## Output

APX writes:

```text
.apx/artifacts/claude-<slug>-<timestamp>.md
```

Artifact sections:

- Original user task
- Final prompt sent to Claude CLI
- Claude output (raw)
- Concise summary
- Action items / next steps

## Verification

```bash

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add yeaight7/agent-powerups/ask-claude@sha256:a060a2e5620a7f24

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260429.498f026, 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.
