Loom uses an intelligent probe system to detect what's running in each terminal. When you receive a probe command, respond according to this protocol.
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
<!-- loom-managed-skill -->
<!-- GENERATED FILE — DO NOT EDIT DIRECTLY.
Produced by `loom-daemon generate-agent-skills` from
defaults/.claude/commands/loom/probe-protocol.md (the same source Claude Code
reads as /loom:probe-protocol via .claude/commands/loom/). This is the
cross-vendor skill-discovery surface (.agents/skills/<name>/SKILL.md)
read natively by Codex, Kimi Code, Mistral Vibe, and Grok — see
runtime-adapters.md §5. To change this file, edit the source above
and re-run the generator; CI (`loom-daemon generate-agent-skills
--check`) fails if this file is stale. -->
# Terminal Probe Protocol (canonical)
Loom uses an intelligent probe system to detect what's running in each terminal. When you receive a probe command, respond according to this protocol.
This is the single canonical copy of the probe protocol. Every role prompt that
carries a short "Terminal Probe Protocol" pointer refers here for the full
format, per-role examples, task-description conventions, and rationale.
## When this protocol applies (interactive terminals only)
**This protocol only matters for Manual Orchestration Mode terminals** —

How to install
mdr add rjwalters/kicad-tools/loom-probe-protocol@sha256:ce46aaecdb58c7a4The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260923.a80a40e, 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.
