+[![npm](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/@zhixuan92/multi-model-agent?label=npm)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@zhixuan92/multi-model-agent)
+
+Local HTTP daemon that delegates tool-using work to sub-agents on different LLM providers. One process serves Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, and Cursor via installable skills.
+
+*Renamed from `@zhixuan92/multi-model-agent-mcp` in 3.0.0 — the package no longer uses MCP. See [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/zhixuan312/multi-model-agent/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md).*
+
+## Why
+
+Your flagship model reasoning about architecture is money well spent. That same model grepping files, writing boilerplate, and running tests is waste.
+
+| Project | MMA — MiniMax-M2.7 | MMA — DeepSeek V4 Pro | Flagship: Claude Opus 4.7 |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Feature impl (30 files, ~50 tasks) | **$1.50** · **33× ROI** · ~35 min | **~$2.50** · **20× ROI** · ~15 min | $50 · 1× · *baseline* |
+| Full web SPA (59 tasks) | **$5.65** · **12× ROI** · ~50 min | **~$9** · **7.5× ROI** · ~22 min | $68 · 1× · *baseline* |
+| Backend microservice (91 tasks) | **$8.21** · **13× ROI** · ~1.5 hrs | **~$14** · **7.5× ROI** · ~40 min | $104 · 1× · *baseline* |
+
+Plus structural quality: implementation and review run on **different** model families — different blind spots, catches what self-review can't.
+
+## Initial setup
+
+Four steps, in order.
+
+### 1. Install CLI + skills
+
+```bash
+npm i -g @zhixuan92/multi-model-agent       # standalone binary (Bun embedded) — npm uses Node ≥18 only to install; the daemon needs no Node/Bun
+mmagent sync-skills                         # auto-detect all clients (idempotent install + update)
+# or pin a specific target:
+mmagent sync-skills --target=claude-code    # claude-code | gemini-cli | codex-cli | cursor
+```
+
+| Client | Install location | Loaded |
+|---|---|---|
+| Claude Code | `~/.claude/skills/` | next session |
+| Gemini CLI | Gemini CLI skill directory | next session (requires version with external-skill support) |
+| Codex CLI | `~/.codex/skills/` | next session |
+| Cursor | Cursor extension manifest | restart Cursor |
+
+### 2. Choose your main model — intentionally
+
+Your **main model** is **the model you'd use without mmagent** — the cost baseline for every per-task headline (`$X actual / $Y saved vs <mainModel> (Z× ROI)`).
+
+- Heavy Claude Code user → `claude-opus-4-7`
+- ChatGPT-led workflow → `gpt-5.5`
+- Gemini-led workflow → `gemini-3.1-pro`
+
+Both `X-MMA-Client` and `X-MMA-Main-Model` are required on tool routes (`400 client_required` / `400 main_model_required` if missing). The 4.3.0 auto-detect chain was reverted in 4.4.0 — the claude-agent-sdk used by claude-tier workers wrote JSONL files into the same `~/.claude/projects/<slug>/` the resolver was reading, so auto-detect could return a worker's model as the calling agent's "main". The calling client is the only reliable source.
+
+```bash
+export MMAGENT_CLIENT=claude-code              # or codex-cli, gemini-cli, cursor
+export MMAGENT_MAIN_MODEL=claude-opus-4-7      # whatever your calling agent runs on
+```
+
+### 3. Write the config
+
+Paste this into your shell — it creates `~/.multi-model/config.json` with the minimum-viable starter config (overwrites any existing file at that path):
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p ~/.multi-model && cat > ~/.multi-model/config.json <<'EOF'
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "standard": {
+      "type": "claude-compatible",
+      "model": "deepseek-v4-pro",
+      "baseUrl": "https://api.deepseek.com/anthropic",
+      "apiKeyEnv": "DEEPSEEK_API_KEY"
+    },
+    "complex": {
+      "type": "codex",
+      "model": "gpt-5.5"
+    }
+  }
+}
+EOF
+```
+
+That's the whole minimum-viable file. All other knobs (`server.*`, `defaults.timeoutMs`, `defaults.tools`, …) have sane built-in defaults — see [Configuration reference](#configuration-reference).
+
+### 4. Start the daemon + verify
+
+Two ways — pick one:
+
+**Option A — let your AI client auto-spawn it.** Open your client (Claude Code / Codex CLI / etc.) and call any mma-* skill; the skill's preflight check spawns `mmagent serve` on `127.0.0.1:7337` and reuses it for every subsequent call.
+
+**Option B — start it manually.** Useful when you want the daemon up before opening a client:
+
+```bash
+mmagent serve                          # 127.0.0.1:7337 by default
+curl -s http://localhost:7337/health   # → {"status":"ok"}
+```
+
+For an always-on background install (survives reboots): [launchd / systemd templates](./scripts/README.md).
+
+## Updating
+
+```bash
+npm install -g @zhixuan92/multi-model-agent@latest
+pkill -f "mmagent serve"            # stop the running daemon
+mmagent sync-skills                 # reconcile installed skills with the new bundle
+# next AI-client session respawns the daemon via the skill preflight
+```
+
+A drift warning prints on `mmagent serve` if installed skills are older than the daemon. To rotate the auth token: `rm ~/.multi-model/auth-token && mmagent serve`.
+
+## Skills
+
+Skills are the surface your AI client sees. `mmagent sync-skills` writes them to the client's skill directory and keeps them reconciled across upgrades; the client then picks the right one based on what you ask. You don't call them by hand — you describe the work, the client routes it to the matching skill, the skill calls the matching REST endpoint.
+
+### Work-delegation skills
+
+| Skill | Target endpoint | Use when |
+|---|---|---|
+| `mma-delegate` | `POST /delegate` | Ad-hoc implementation or research tasks **without** a plan file — run them in parallel on cheap workers. |
+| `mma-execute-plan` | `POST /execute-plan` | A plan / spec markdown exists on disk with numbered task headings; implement one or more tasks from it. |
+| `mma-investigate` | `POST /investigate` | Answer a question about *this* codebase ("how does X work", "where is Y called") without burning main-context tokens on grep + reads. |
+| `mma-explore` | (orchestrator playbook — no dedicated route) | Fans out `mma-investigate` + `mma-research` + `mma-journal-recall` in parallel and synthesises 3–5 distinct directions. Run before `superpowers:brainstorming`. Not for "where is X" questions (use `mma-investigate`). |
+| `mma-research` | `POST /research` | External multi-source research with citations — arxiv, semantic_scholar, github_search, brave-with-`site:`-filters — for a focused question. |
+| `mma-debug` | `POST /debug` | A test fails, a build breaks, or behavior is unexpected — delegate the reproduce/trace, keep the hypothesis on the main agent. |
+| `mma-review` | `POST /review` | Source-code review (pre-merge, post-implementation, security-focused). One worker per file, in parallel. |
+| `mma-audit` | `POST /audit` | Audit a spec / plan / design doc / recommendation doc for executability blockers (contradictions, ambiguity, recommendation-coherence gaps). Default is the comprehensive sweep; `security` and `performance` are narrow opt-in lenses. |
+| `mma-journal-record` | `POST /journal-record` | Record a durable project learning into the cross-agent journal — what was tried, what happened, the lesson — integrated into a graph of ADR "node" files under `.mmagent/journal/` (create / refine / supersede / merge with typed edges). |
+| `mma-journal-recall` | `POST /journal-recall` | Recall relevant prior learnings from the journal for a question or situation — traverses the node graph rather than keyword-filtering. |
+
+### Plumbing skills
+
+| Skill | Target endpoint | Use when |
+|---|---|---|
+| `mma-context-blocks` | `POST/DELETE /context-blocks` | The same large doc (>~2 KB) will be referenced by 2+ subsequent mma-* calls — register once, pass the ID instead of re-uploading. |
+| `mma-retry` | `POST /retry` | A previous batch came back partial — re-run only the failed indices without re-dispatching the whole batch. |
+
+The `multi-model-agent` skill (no `mma-` prefix) is a top-level overview your client reads first to pick which `mma-*` skill applies.
+
+### Two generic usage samples
+
+**Sample 1 — implement a feature from a plan**
+
+```
+You: "Execute tasks 3, 4, and 5 from docs/plans/auth-rewrite.md"
+↓
+Client picks mma-execute-plan (plan file on disk, multiple independent tasks)
+↓
+mmagent dispatches 3 workers in parallel on the standard agent (e.g. MiniMax-M2.7),
+each runs cross-agent review on the complex agent, returns a structured report.
+↓
+You see one consolidated headline: "$0.04 actual / $1.20 saved vs claude-opus-4-7 (30× ROI)"
+```
+
+**Sample 2 — debug a failing test (multiple skills chained)**
+
+```
+You: "tests/auth/session.test.ts is failing intermittently after the token-refresh refactor — figure it out and fix it"
+↓
+Step 1 — mma-context-blocks
+  The failing test output + the refactor diff are ~8 KB and will be referenced by every
+  downstream call. Register once, get a contextBlockId, reuse it.
+↓
+Step 2 — mma-debug
+  Worker reproduces the failure, traces across session.ts + token-refresh.ts, returns a
+  root-cause hypothesis: "race between refresh-in-flight and session.invalidate()".
+  Main agent stays on the hypothesis, decides the fix shape.
+↓
+Step 3 — mma-delegate
+  Dispatch the actual code change as an ad-hoc task (no plan file). Worker writes the
+  fix, runs the failing test 20× to confirm the race is gone.
+↓
+Step 4 — mma-review (with the acceptance checklist in the brief)
+  Reviewer worker checks the diff against the acceptance criteria: (a) failing
+  test now passes, (b) no other auth tests regressed, (c) refresh path still
+  emits the expected telemetry.
+↓
+Total cost: ~$0.08. Main-context tokens consumed: just the hypotheses and the verdicts.
+```
+
+## Configuration reference
+
+### Lookup order
+
+`--config <path>` → `$MMAGENT_CONFIG` → `<cwd>/.multi-model-agent.json` → `~/.multi-model/config.json`.
+
+### Agent types
+
+| Type | Auth | When to pick |
+|---|---|---|
+| `claude` | Local Claude Code OAuth (`claude login`) | Stay on Claude end-to-end with subscription auth |
+| `codex` | Codex CLI subscription (`codex login`) | OpenAI flagship work without juggling API keys |
+| `openai-compatible` | `apiKey` or `apiKeyEnv` | Any OpenAI-compatible endpoint — MiniMax, Groq, Together, local vLLM, plus OpenAI direct |
+| `claude-compatible` | `apiKey` or `apiKeyEnv` | Vendors exposing an Anthropic-format endpoint (DeepSeek's `/anthropic`, etc.) — preserves thinking content blocks across multi-turn tool use |
+
+DeepSeek V4 Pro under `claude-compatible` keeps reasoning ON; under `openai-compatible` it works but auto-disables thinking.
+
+### Tuning
+
+Every `defaults` knob has a built-in. Override only when you need to.
+
+| Field | Default | What it does |
+|---|---|---|
+| `defaults.timeoutMs` | `3600000` (60 min) | Hard task-level wall-clock cap (bumped from 30 min in 3.9.0) |
+| `defaults.stallTimeoutMs` | `1200000` (20 min) | Aborts in-flight runs idle for this long (bumped from 10 min in 3.9.0) |
+| `defaults.tools` | `"full"` | Tool surface: `none` / `readonly` / `no-shell` / `full` |
+| `defaults.sandboxPolicy` | `"cwd-only"` | Path-traversal + symlink confinement to the request's `cwd` |
+
+### Telemetry
+
+**Off by default.** Opt in via `mmagent telemetry enable` (or `MMAGENT_TELEMETRY=1`), or set in config:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": { "...": "..." },
+  "telemetry": { "enabled": true }
+}
+```
+
+Every upload batch is signed with a per-install Ed25519 key (TOFU; lives at `~/.multi-model/identity.json`); receivers can verify it came from the install whose `installId` it claims. Full disclosure: [PRIVACY.md](https://github.com/zhixuan312/multi-model-agent/blob/master/PRIVACY.md).
+
+### Verbose / diagnostics
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": { "...": "..." },
+  "diagnostics": { "log": true, "verbose": true }
+}
+```
+
+Or per-run via `mmagent serve --verbose --log`. JSONL goes to `~/.multi-model/logs/mmagent-<date>.jsonl`; large request bodies (>16 KB UTF-8) spill to `~/.multi-model/logs/requests/<batchId>.json`.
+
+> **Note:** verbose logs may include prompts, file paths, and other task content — disable for production servers handling sensitive data.
+
+### Auth token
+
+Generated on first `mmagent serve`. Retrieve with `mmagent print-token`, or set `MMAGENT_AUTH_TOKEN` to override.
+
+## REST API
+
+16 endpoints. All tool endpoints are async: they return `202 { batchId, statusUrl }` immediately and the executor runs in the background. Poll `GET /batch/:id` for the terminal envelope.
+
+| Endpoint | Purpose |
+|---|---|
+| `POST /delegate?cwd=<abs>` | Fan out ad-hoc tasks to sub-agents |
+| `POST /audit?cwd=<abs>` | Audit a document (or a code-execution plan via `subtype: 'plan'`) |
+| `POST /review?cwd=<abs>` | Review code (pass acceptance checklists in the brief for verification-style checks) |
+| `POST /debug?cwd=<abs>` | Debug a failure with a hypothesis |
+| `POST /execute-plan?cwd=<abs>` | Implement from a plan file |
+| `POST /retry?cwd=<abs>` | Re-run specific tasks from a previous batch |
+| `POST /investigate?cwd=<abs>` | Codebase Q&A — structured answer with file:line citations + confidence |
+| `POST /research?cwd=<abs>` | External multi-source research — arxiv, semantic_scholar, github_search, brave-with-`site:`-filters — for a focused question |
+| `POST /journal-record?cwd=<abs>` | Record one learning into the project's cross-agent journal graph (`.mmagent/journal/`) — create / refine / supersede / merge |
+| `POST /journal-recall?cwd=<abs>` | Recall relevant prior learnings from the journal graph for a question or situation |
+| `GET /batch/:id[?taskIndex=N]` | Poll a batch: `202 text/plain` (pending) or `200 application/json` (terminal). `?taskIndex=N` slices on complete state |
+| `POST /context-blocks?cwd=<abs>` | Register a reusable context block |
+| `DELETE /context-blocks/:id?cwd=<abs>` | Delete a context block |
+| `POST /control/batch-slice` | Slice an in-flight batch — return a subset of its tasks by index |
+| `GET /health` | Liveness probe (unauthenticated, loopback-only) |
+| `GET /status` | Server status (authenticated, loopback-only) |
+
+All tool endpoints require bearer auth: `Authorization: Bearer <token>`.
+
+## Operator commands
+
+```bash
+mmagent serve [--verbose] [--log]                # start daemon
+mmagent info  [--json]                           # cliVersion, bind/port, token fingerprint, daemon identity
+mmagent status [--json]                          # health + stats from a running daemon
+mmagent logs  [--follow] [--batch=<id>]          # tail today's diagnostic log
+mmagent print-token                              # print the current auth token
+mmagent sync-skills [--target=<client>] [--all-targets] [--dry-run] [--json]   # idempotent install + update + reconcile
+mmagent disable [--target=<client>] [--all-targets] [--dry-run] [--json]       # remove skills + pin off (survives upgrades)
+mmagent enable  [--target=<client>] [--all-targets] [--dry-run] [--json]       # clear the pin + reinstall skills
+mmagent telemetry status                         # show consent state + source
+mmagent telemetry enable                         # opt in
+mmagent telemetry disable                        # opt out + delete local queue
+mmagent telemetry reset-id                       # rotate the local Ed25519 identity
+mmagent telemetry dump-queue                     # print the locally-queued events as JSON
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+`mmagent serve` runs a loopback HTTP server. Each tool call dispatches to a labor agent (standard or complex), runs a cross-agent review cycle, and returns a structured report. Tasks run in parallel; each has a wall-clock timeout.
+
+Full design rationale: [DIRECTION.md](https://github.com/zhixuan312/multi-model-agent/blob/master/DIRECTION.md). Layer map and request lifecycle: [docs/ARCHITECTURE.md](https://github.com/zhixuan312/multi-model-agent/blob/master/docs/ARCHITECTURE.md).
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| Symptom | Fix |
+|---|---|
+| Port 7337 already in use | `lsof -nP -i :7337` → kill the stale process |
+| Daemon stale after upgrade | `pkill -f "mmagent serve"`; the skill preflight respawns it on next client session |
+| Skill version mismatch | `mmagent sync-skills` and restart your client |
+| `401 unauthorized` from a skill | `export MMAGENT_AUTH_TOKEN=$(mmagent print-token)` |
+| `pkill` reports success but `mmagent info` still shows the old PID | The pattern didn't match — try `kill <pid-from-mmagent-info>` directly |
+| TLS `handshake_failure` to a known-good telemetry endpoint | Local DNS cache is stale. `sudo dscacheutil -flushcache && sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder` (macOS); restart the daemon so its process re-resolves |
+| Local telemetry queue stops draining | Daemon's flusher is in exponential backoff after a transport failure (capped at 1 hr). Restart the daemon to force an immediate boot-flush |
+
+## What's new in 4.9.0
+
+- **Delegate skill passthrough.** `POST /delegate` tasks accept an optional `skills: string[]`. Each name is resolved from the caller's skill store (by `X-MMA-Client`), staged into an ephemeral per-task directory, and delivered natively — Claude workers via a local SDK plugin, Codex workers via an ephemeral `CODEX_HOME`. Unknown names hard-fail just that task; omitting `skills` is byte-for-byte the previous behavior.
