A fenced bash/python block in SKILL.md carries a natural-language imperative — "now run this", "execute the following command" — directing the agent to execute the fenced content. What looks like documentation becomes an executable payload the agent may run without ever asking you.

Used adversarially it removes the human-in-the-loop check before destructive or sensitive actions, turning a normally-gated agent into a fire-and-forget executor.

Separate gateway bookkeeping from native provider continuity. session_create, session_list, session_set_active, and session_get manage gateway metadata; they do not create or prove a provider-native conversation. Never pass a gateway-generated ID to a provider as though it were a native handle.
For a review session, dispatch requests through the local stdio gateway MCP surface. A session does not authorize a direct provider CLI, connector/shadow gateway, or shell fallback.
Before using a provider-specific session field, query:
provider_tool_capabilities({cli:"claude"})
provider_tool_capabilities({cli:"codex"})
provider_tool_capabilities({cli:"gemini"})
provider_tool_capabilities({cli:"grok"})
provider_tool_capabilities({cli:"mistral"})
provider_tool_capabilities({cli:"devin"})
provider_tool_capabilities({cli:"cursor"})Use a native sessionId only when it came from that provider or was supplied by the caller as a verified native handle. A fresh gateway session often uses a gw-* bookkeeping ID. It is not resumable for Codex, Grok, Mistral, Devin, or Cursor, and must never be replayed to Gemini either.
| Provider | Native resume | Important boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Claude | sessionId maps to --session-id; continuation maps to --continue. | Managed native continuation is a high-risk posture input requiring an approval decision and LLM_GATEWAY_APPROVAL_ALLOW_BYPASS=1. |
| Codex | Real Codex UUID maps to codex exec resume <UUID>; resumeLatest:true resumes a previous session through --last. | Do not rely on the resumed cwd or on which session --last selects (#258). Use a real UUID for a specific Codex session. Resume drops sandboxMode and fullAuto, though configOverrides can still set sandbox_mode. |
| Gemini | A caller-owned Antigravity conversation ID maps to --conversation; resumeLatest:true maps to --continue. | Fresh launches do not produce a reusable native ID. Check resumable:true; never replay gw-*. |
| Grok | Native ID maps to --resume; resumeLatest:true maps to --continue. | A fresh gw-* ID is bookkeeping only. Cwd affects --continue context. |
| Mistral | Native ID maps to --resume; resumeLatest:true maps to --continue. | A fresh gw-* ID is bookkeeping only. Vibe session logging defaults on; doctor --json flags only explicit [session_logging] enabled = false. |
| Devin | Native ID maps to --resume; resumeLatest:true maps to --continue. | A fresh gw-* ID is bookkeeping only. Use workingDir or workspace to bind the selected cwd. |
| Cursor | Native chat/session ID maps to --resume; resumeLatest:true maps to --continue. | A fresh gw-* ID is bookkeeping only. Use workingDir for its checkout, or a verified workspace. |
All non-Claude providers use approvalStrategy:"legacy"; they reject Claude-only mcp_managed and ignore approvalPolicy. mcp_managed is usable only with Claude and its request-scoped gateway-owned MCP configuration.
When a user explicitly authorizes full provider permissions and native MCP access for review, follow multi-llm-review's full-access protocol instead of the safe examples below. Build and launch a fresh target-checkout stdio gateway with node dist/index.js --transport=stdio; do not use a globally installed gateway whose revision is unknown. Reapply the provider-native full-access mapping on every new job and verify it through the live capability surface.
Do not rely on continuity for the grant. In particular, the gateway drops sandboxMode on a Codex resume, so you cannot select a posture that way, and the resumed posture is not guaranteed to match the original either: configOverrides still passes through and Codex re-resolves configuration on a cold resume. A full-access Codex review therefore needs a fresh native session. Keep ambient provider MCP configuration available, do not turn request tool/MCP lists into an asserted allowlist, and record the exact base, diff or changed-file list, verification report, and durable job evidence with every review iteration. If the user requests 90-second progress checks, do not poll earlier than that cadence.
Create a gateway record when you need description, active-pointer, cache projection, or local workflow organization:
session_create({cli:"claude",description:"Refactor auth module",setAsActive:true})
session_list({cli:"claude"})
session_get({sessionId:"<gateway-session-id>"})
session_set_active({cli:"claude",sessionId:"<gateway-session-id>"})Treat the returned ID as gateway metadata. Pair it with a separately verified native handle if you want provider continuation. Do not assume an active gateway session causes Codex, Gemini, Grok, Mistral, Devin, or Cursor to resume a provider conversation.
Gateway tool calls:
claude_request({
prompt:"Continue the approved task.",
sessionId:"<verified-claude-id>",
approvalStrategy:"legacy"
})
codex_request({
prompt:"Continue the approved task.",
resumeLatest:true,
approvalStrategy:"legacy"
})
gemini_request({
prompt:"Continue the approved task.",
sessionId:"<caller-owned-antigravity-conversation>",
workingDir:"<repo>",
approvalStrategy:"legacy"
})
grok_request({prompt:"Continue.",resumeLatest:true,workingDir:"<repo>",approvalStrategy:"legacy"})
mistral_request({prompt:"Continue.",resumeLatest:true,workingDir:"<repo>",approvalStrategy:"legacy"})
devin_request({prompt:"Continue.",resumeLatest:true,workingDir:"<repo>",approvalStrategy:"legacy"})
cursor_request({prompt:"Continue.",resumeLatest:true,workingDir:"<repo>",approvalStrategy:"legacy"})Codex resumeLatest is UNDER REVIEW (#258): --last is cwd-filtered upstream unless --all is passed, which the gateway does not emit, and the child is still spawned with the gateway-resolved cwd. Do not rely on which session it selects or on the resumed working directory. To target a specific native session, pass its verified real Codex UUID as sessionId.
For Codex, start source inspection with sandboxMode:"read-only"; use workspace-write only if the work needs write-producing commands. Do not use new fullAuto:true examples. On a Codex resume, sandboxMode and fullAuto are not emitted, so neither can select a posture there; configOverrides can still set sandbox_mode. Start a fresh native session when the posture must be known.
Native session state is contextual. Verify the repository/workspace and cwd before every resume, especially when multiple workstations or repositories run simultaneously:
workingDir for Claude, Grok, Mistral, and Devin.workingDir for a fresh Codex session. Do not assume it leavesresumeLatest unaffected: --last is cwd-filtered upstream and the child is still spawned with the gateway-resolved cwd, so it can influence which session is selected. Use a verified real Codex UUID to target a specific session.
workingDir for Gemini's target checkout. includeDirs remains an extraread path and still does not select cwd.
workingDir for Cursor's process cwd. Its workspace is a separateCursor-native selector (a saved-workspace name, a .code-workspace file, or a directory), so passing both an absolute workspace path and a different workingDir is rejected rather than silently ranked.
For providers whose latest-session selection is cwd-scoped, an unscoped local CLI child runs in a fresh neutral temporary directory, not the gateway repository. Their cwd-scoped resumeLatest therefore fails closed unless workingDir, workspace, or a configured default workspace supplies a stable target. Codex was documented as the exception, on the basis that resumeLatest selects a globally latest session. Do not rely on that either (#258): --last is cwd-filtered upstream and the child is still spawned with the gateway-resolved cwd. Verify it, or start a fresh session when the target must be certain.
The gateway's cache/session metadata does not prove that a provider resumed the intended repository. Record the native handle, selected target, provider, and commit/diff evidence together.
Claude, Codex, Gemini, Grok, and Mistral accept either prompt or structured promptParts. Devin and Cursor accept only flat prompt. Keep the stable system/tools/context prefix byte-identical only where promptParts is supported, and retain a canonical flat equivalent for the other two providers.
claude_request({
promptParts:{system:"<stable>",context:"<stable spec>",task:"Follow-up task"},
sessionId:"<verified-claude-id>",
approvalStrategy:"legacy"
})prompt and promptParts are mutually exclusive. cache-state://global, cache-state://session/{sessionId}, and cache-state://prefix/{hash} contain token/hash aggregates, not prompt/response text. A shared prefix hash is not evidence that every provider hit an equivalent cache.
When async tools are registered, a sync call may return a deferred job. Poll with llm_job_status and read llm_job_result once terminal. SQLite/PostgreSQL job results survive restarts; acknowledged memory is ephemeral; backend none does not register async/job tools.
Do not impose a review deadline or arbitrary review round count because a session is involved. A mandatory review remains incomplete until every required reviewer returns an evidence-backed unconditional approval. A provider failure must be repaired/retried or reported INCOMPLETE/BLOCKED, never skipped.
Kit mode is local-only, supports only Claude/Codex/Mistral, requires healthy SQLite/PostgreSQL durable admission, and retires native continuation after a gateway restart. It disables validation and least-cost routing. Use explain_effective_config before consequential Kit work. If effective Kit caps constrain an exhaustive review, do not claim an unconditional/complete review without an approved uncapped profile or explicit user direction.
explain_effective_config({workingDir:"<repo>"}) can inspect a candidate Kit scope. Do not pass that workingDir to a Claude or Mistral Kit request: Kit rejects it before compiling context. Select that Kit target through an already configured registered workspace alias or the configured default workspace. It never inherits the gateway process cwd.
Use session_delete({sessionId:"..."}) for an obsolete bookkeeping record and session_clear_all({cli:"..."}) only when the caller wants to clear that gateway metadata. Neither command deletes a provider-native conversation.
