What this skill does

Use when: (1) launching long-running Claude Code tasks that need monitoring, (2) setting up automatic nudging for API errors or premature stops, (3) getting progress reports from background coding agents, (4) continuing work after session/context limits reset. Requires: tmux, claude CLI.
