At a glance

Interact with freeact agent via tmux for testing. An agent skill from gradion-ai/freeact.

  • Agent Workflows work in your project
  • SKILL.md covers Setup, Capturing Output, Sending Input and Approval Prompt, plus 2 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Freeact Interaction is an agent skill from gradion-ai/freeact. Interact with freeact agent via tmux for testing

Its SKILL.md is about 450 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/image-attachments.md` and `references/slash-commands.md`).

It sits in Agent Workflows. It works with tmux. The repository describes itself as: General-purpose AI agent that acts via code actions through a unified execution interface. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Agent Workflows work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/freeact-interaction”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f31371d. 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 (its code samples are bash).

    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

Freeact Interaction loads about 448 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.1k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 17 tokens; SKILL.md has 126 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~17
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~448
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.1k

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.

Interact with freeact agent via tmux for testing

Interacting with Freeact via tmux

Freeact's terminal UI (Textual) requires a real TTY. Use tmux to provide a pseudo-TTY.

Setup

bash
# Start detached tmux session (120x50 recommended for proper rendering)
tmux new-session -d -s agent -x 120 -y 50
tmux set-option -t agent remain-on-exit on

# Start freeact (do NOT redirect stderr, it breaks Textual's terminal detection)
tmux send-keys -t agent 'uv run freeact' Enter

Wait at least 10 seconds for startup (MCP servers need to initialize).

Capturing Output

Textual renders to the terminal's alternate screen buffer. tmux capture-pane captures it correctly as long as stderr is not redirected.

bash
# Capture visible screen
tmux capture-pane -t agent -p

# Capture with scrollback
tmux capture-pane -t agent -p -S -50

Sending Input

Use separate tool calls for sending keys and capturing output. Never chain tmux send-keys and tmux capture-pane in a single bash command -- the shell command text leaks into the Textual prompt.

bash
# Send literal text (use -l to avoid key interpretation)
tmux send-keys -t agent -l 'your message here'

Then in a separate call:

bash
tmux send-keys -t agent Enter

Then wait and capture in another separate call.

Approval Prompt

bash
# Approve: y, Reject: n, Always: a, Session: s
tmux send-keys -t agent 'y'

Quit and Cleanup

bash
tmux send-keys -t agent C-q
sleep 2
tmux kill-session -t agent
