CRITICAL - Guide for using Claudish CLI ONLY through sub-agents to run Claude Code with any AI model (OpenRouter, Gemini, OpenAI, local models). NEVER run Claudish directly in main context unless user explicitly requests it. Use when user mentions external AI models, Claudish, OpenRouter, Gemini, OpenAI, Ollama, or alternative models. Includes mandatory sub-agent delegation patterns, agent selection guide, file-based instructions, and strict rules to prevent context window pollution.

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

# Claudish Usage Skill

**Version:** 2.0.0
**Purpose:** Guide AI agents on how to use Claudish CLI to run Claude Code with any AI model
**Status:** Production Ready

## ⚠️ CRITICAL RULES - READ FIRST

### 🚫 NEVER Run Claudish from Main Context

**Claudish MUST ONLY be run through sub-agents** unless the user **explicitly** requests direct execution.

**Why:**
- Running Claudish directly pollutes main context with 10K+ tokens (full conversation + reasoning)
- Destroys context window efficiency
- Makes main conversation unmanageable

**When you can run Claudish directly:**
- ✅ User explicitly says "run claudish directly" or "don't use a sub-agent"
- ✅ User is debugging and wants to see full output
- ✅ User specifically requests main context execution

**When you MUST use sub-agent:**
- ✅ User says "use Grok to implement X" (delegate to sub-agent)
- ✅ User says "ask GPT-5.3 to review X" (delegate to sub-agent)
- ✅ User mentions any model name without "directly" (delegate to sub-agent)
- ✅ Any production task (always delegate)

### 📋 Workflow Decision Tree

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add madappgang/claudish/claudish-usage@sha256:75ad9dc1e5ccf6fa

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261023.4cbd7d3, 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.
