alis herdr¶

Integrate Alis with herdr, the terminal multiplexer the CLI can run inside: link the Alis plugin and inspect the current session.

Synopsis¶

Shell

alis herdr install [flags]
alis herdr status [flags]

Description¶

Inside herdr, every pane knows its service: the pane is titled <org>.<product> / <service> and carries alis_org, alis_product and alis_neuron tokens for its working directory. Outside ~/alis.build nothing changes. herdr 0.9.0 or later is required.

Subcommands¶

alis herdr install¶

Link the Alis herdr plugin and bind its shortcuts. Prefix is Ctrl+B. Keys already taken are left alone; bind the plugin actions yourself in that case. The plugin manifest pins the CLI's exact path and version, so a CLI upgrade re-links it; re-run install after moving the CLI. Install also unlinks the retired alis.handoff plugin.

❯ alis herdr install [flags]

Shortcut	Plugin action	What it does
`prefix+a`	`alis.build.navigate`	Opens the TUI in a popup at the invoking pane's service; `q` or Ctrl+C closes it.
`prefix+y`	`alis.build.approve`	Approve a production deploy that was refused for confirmation: a popup shows the exact retry and runs it only on `y`.
`prefix+d`	`alis.build.board`	Operations board beside the pane: every operation this machine started, polled every 5 s. `q` closes it.
`prefix+m`	`alis.build.memory`	Save a coding-agent session to Alis (`alis context push-session`; its own `[y/N]` is the consent).
`prefix+i`	`alis.build.ask`	Ask across your skills, sessions and specialist conversations, scoped to the pane's service.
`prefix+t`	`alis.build.handoff`	Hand the focused Claude or OpenCode pane off to a workstation.
`prefix+u`	`alis.build.reclaim`	List this laptop's handoffs; bring one back.

herdr has no palette for plugin actions; a key or herdr plugin action invoke <action> reaches them.

No flags beyond the global flags.

alis herdr status¶

Inspect the current herdr session and the Alis plugin link: the session, version, plugin link and whether the link is stale.

❯ alis herdr status [flags]

No flags beyond the global flags.

Examples¶

Shell

alis herdr install
alis herdr status --json

Notes¶

Without herdr installed, status exits 1 with an ERROR envelope naming the missing executable.
alis build, alis deploy, alis define and alis operations wait run inside a pane toast their outcome; a production deploy refused for confirmation labels the pane and offers the approve action.
