29 days oldThe repository was created 29 days ago. New is not bad, but a brand new repository carrying a familiar-sounding name is the shape a typosquat arrives in, and there has been no time for anyone else to find a problem with it.

What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Ask a locally installed external advisor CLI (Claude or Gemini) for focused questions, reviews, brainstorming, or second opinions, and capture a reusable artifact. Use when the user wants a Claude/Gemini second opinion, "ask claude", or "ask gemini".

Ported from oh-my-codex ask. OMX runtime conventions ($macro invocation, omx CLI, .omx/ state directory) are replaced with WorkBuddy idioms (Skill tool, Agent tool, task list, .workbuddy/memory).

Ask (Local Advisor CLI)

Use a locally installed external advisor CLI for focused questions, reviews, brainstorming, or second opinions. This skill replaces the separate ask-claude and ask-gemini skills.

Usage

Invoke with a backend and a question or task, for example:

ask claude <question or task>
ask gemini <question or task>

Backend selection

Use claude when the user asks for Claude, Anthropic, or the previous ask-claude behavior.
Use gemini when the user asks for Gemini or the previous ask-gemini behavior.
If no backend is specified, choose the installed backend that best matches the user request; if neither is clearly available, explain that a local CLI is required.

Local CLI commands

Claude:

claude -p "{{ARGUMENTS}}"

Gemini:

gemini -p "{{ARGUMENTS}}"

If needed, adapt to the user's installed CLI variant while keeping local execution as the default path. Do not silently switch to an MCP or remote provider when the local binary is missing.

Artifact requirement

After local execution, save a markdown artifact under a project-relative path:

.omw/ask/ask-<backend>-<slug>-<timestamp>.md

Minimum artifact sections:

Original user task
Backend and final prompt sent to the CLI
Raw CLI output
Concise summary
Action items / next steps

Task: {{ARGUMENTS}}
