interactive-shell

Cheat sheet + workflow for launching interactive coding-agent CLIs (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex CLI, Cursor CLI, and pi itself) via the interactive_shell overlay or headless dispatch. Use for TUI agents and long-running processes that need supervision, fire-and-forget delegation, or headless background execution. Regular bash commands should use the bash tool instead.
