Codeman maintainer 9c64fc128d docs(agent-skill): say the skill is on by default and stays out of git
Every place that called the Codeman Agent Skill setting off by default now
says it is on by default since 1.50.0, where to turn it off, and that turning
it off still removes no copy already written (`codeman skill uninstall --case
<name>` does). The README, the wiki's Codeman Skill page and the FAQ say an
agent inside Codeman usually has the skill without an install step, and that
the copy ignores itself in git.

Also written down: an install whose App Settings were saved on an earlier
version stored the old default and stays off until switched on; with the
Claude Code plugin installed, Claude Code lists the skill twice (both work);
and, in the invariants, the self-ignoring `.gitignore` rules and the
measurement that Claude Code 2.1.319 never runs `git check-ignore` on a skill
folder. The agent control plan keeps its original default-off decision and
gains a dated note for the flip.

codeman (Claude Code plugin)

The agent skill for Codeman, the self-hosted mission control for AI coding agents. With it, a Claude Code session running inside Codeman can start other sessions, prompt them, block until they finish, read their answers and clean up, in plain English instead of API calls.

/plugin marketplace add Ark0N/Codeman
/plugin install codeman@codeman

The skill acts inside a Codeman-managed session (CODEMAN_MUX=1). Outside one it only reads saved Codex conversations offline (codeman history read) and refuses everything else, so installing it globally costs nothing for unrelated sessions.

Pick one install route. Codeman injects the skill into each new session's folder itself, on by default since 1.50.0 (App Settings, Agents & CLIs, Codeman Agent Skill), and codeman skill install writes a user-level copy; a Claude Code that has one of those AND this plugin lists the skill twice, as codeman and codeman:codeman. Both work, the second is just noise: turn that setting off, or skip the plugin, if it bothers you.

This directory is a mirror of skills/codeman in the main repository, kept byte-identical by scripts/sync-plugin.mjs and pinned by a test. Edit the source there, never here. npm run check:plugin (repo root, needs the claude CLI) checks the mirror and validates both manifests.
