 Run one interactive coding-agent turn in Herdr without spending parent-model tokens on status polling.
 
-The plugin keeps the downstream agent's native TUI, creates a dedicated visible pane, waits in a local supervisor process, reads the final output once, and leaves the pane open for human takeover.
+Works with every agent kind supported by your installed Herdr version, including Codex, Claude Code, Grok, Gemini CLI, Kimi, Cursor, OpenCode, and GitHub Copilot.

+The plugin keeps the downstream agent's native TUI, splits a dedicated pane without taking focus, waits in a local supervisor process, reads the final output once, and leaves the pane open for human takeover.
 
 ## Why
 
 `herdr agent prompt --wait` can report `agent_prompt_stalled` even when a prompt was delivered and the agent continues working. A parent model that recovers by repeatedly calling `agent get`, `agent read`, or `agent wait` pays for every observation as another model turn.
 
-Turn Coordinator moves that recovery loop into an ordinary local process. On a false stall it confirms delivery from a new visible prompt anchor or a recovered working state, then waits for lifecycle settlement. If only a 15-second pane-revision quiet period is available, it returns `unknown` for human takeover instead of guessing that the turn completed. It never resends the same prompt.
+Turn Coordinator moves that wait into a local process. On a false stall it checks for a new prompt on screen or a recovered `working` state, then waits. If it only sees 15 seconds of quiet pane output, it returns `unknown` for human takeover instead of declaring the turn done. It never resends the same prompt.
