cmux-diagnostics

Run end-user cmux diagnostics. Use when cmux hooks, notifications, session restore, settings, browser automation, socket access, CLI control, or agent resume behavior is not working, or when the user asks for a cmux health check, doctor report, or support-safe debug summary.

  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 2 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by manaflow-ai on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Cmux Diagnostics AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/manaflow-ai/cmux/tree/main/skills/cmux-diagnostics
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/manaflow-ai/cmux.git /tmp/cmux
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/cmux/skills/cmux-diagnostics .claude/skills/cmux-diagnostics
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Cmux Diagnostics in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Cmux Diagnostics on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Cmux Diagnostics is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

cmux Diagnostics

Collect and interpret support-safe cmux diagnostics for end users. Default to read-only checks. Never dump hook config files, session stores, prompt logs, tokens, or environment secrets.

Quick report

Run the bundled read-only script first, from whichever install path exists:

bash
skills/cmux-diagnostics/scripts/cmux-diagnostics            # cmux checkout
~/.agents/skills/cmux-diagnostics/scripts/cmux-diagnostics  # installed skill
~/.codex/skills/cmux-diagnostics/scripts/cmux-diagnostics   # Codex-only skills.sh install

Add --include-context only when workspace names, cwd paths, and current cmux identifiers are relevant to the reported issue.

What to check

  1. CLI and socket health: command -v cmux, cmux ping, cmux capabilities --json. If socket commands fail, check whether the agent is running inside a cmux terminal and whether socket automation is enabled.
  2. Settings health: cmux-settings validate and cmux-settings get terminal.autoResumeAgentSessions (from ~/.agents/skills/cmux-settings/scripts/, or ~/.codex/skills/... for a skills.sh install). When terminal.autoResumeAgentSessions is false, cmux restores panes but does not resume saved agent sessions.
  3. Hook installation: cmux hooks setup --agent codex, --agent opencode, or bare cmux hooks setup (installs supported agents found on PATH, skips missing ones). Run install or uninstall commands only after the user agrees.
  4. Session restore evidence: ls -lh ~/.cmuxterm/*-hook-sessions.json 2>/dev/null. Missing stores usually mean the agent has not run inside cmux since hooks were installed, hooks are disabled, or the integration does not support resume capture.
  5. Notification path: cmux notify "cmux diagnostic test", only when the user is ready for a visible test notification.

Interpretation

  • cmux not found: the CLI is not installed or not on PATH for this shell.
  • cmux ping fails: the app is closed, unreachable through the current socket path, or automation access is disabled.
  • No CMUX_WORKSPACE_ID or CMUX_SURFACE_ID: the command is running outside a cmux terminal. Some hooks intentionally no-op there.
  • Hook config but no session store: run one supported agent inside cmux after installing hooks, then re-check.
  • Session store but no agents on restore: check terminal.autoResumeAgentSessions and whether the saved executable still exists on PATH.
  • Settings validation fails: fix the config first. Invalid config makes later symptoms misleading.

Rules

  • Stay read-only until the user asks to fix something.
  • Never print raw hook files, session JSON, prompt logs, shell history, tokens, or API keys. Summarize file presence, size, modified time, and marker presence instead.
  • Prefer a narrow fix such as cmux hooks setup --agent codex over reinstalling every integration.
  • After a fix, rerun the diagnostic script and report the changed lines.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Cmux Diagnostics AI skill do?

Run end-user cmux diagnostics. Use when cmux hooks, notifications, session restore, settings, browser automation, socket access, CLI control, or agent resume behavior is not working, or when the user asks for a cmux health check, doctor report, or support-safe debug summary.

Why use Cmux Diagnostics on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Cmux Diagnostics is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Cmux Diagnostics in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/manaflow-ai/cmux/tree/main/skills/cmux-diagnostics. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Cmux Diagnostics?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Cmux Diagnostics?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Cmux Diagnostics with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Cmux Diagnostics AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by manaflow-ai. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
