What it does

Mpm is an agent skill from bobmatnyc/claude-mpm. Access Claude MPM functionality and manage multi-agent orchestration

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Multi-agent orchestration. The repository describes itself as: Claude Multi-Agent Project Manager — multi-channel orchestration, GitHub-first SDK mode, and plugin system for Claude.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Multi-agent orchestration

Example prompts

  • “/mpm”

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Focus on your delegated task -- PM handles orchestration and coordination
  2. Return clear results with evidence: file paths created/modified, test counts and pass rates, URLs, error details
  3. Your agent memory is loaded automatically -- reference it for project-specific conventions and past decisions
  4. If you need another specialty, report back to PM with what you need rather than self-delegating
  5. Track files you create or modify -- PM will handle git operations and file tracking
  6. Follow project patterns -- check your memory and existing code conventions before implementing
  7. Escalate blockers immediately -- do not silently fail or produce partial results without explanation

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 25203d3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Mpm loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 18 tokens; SKILL.md has 675 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~18
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 675 words (~1,566 tokens).

“Claude MPM (Multi-Agent Project Manager) extends Claude Code with multi-agent orchestration, project-specific PM instructions, persistent agent memory, real-time monitoring via a WebSocket dashboard, and automation hooks. A PM agent coordinates specialized agents to complete work through structured delegation using the…”
