README excerpt
Read full README on GitHub →AgentBox — Herdr plugin
A Herdr plugin for AgentBox. It adds, to your Herdr session:
- a boxes overlay (
prefix+a) — a live list of all your AgentBox sandboxes (agentbox list --herdr --watch) - a new box shortcut (
prefix+shift+a) — start a box in the current project - an
agentbox://Ctrl+click link handler — open a box's web app straight from the terminal
This repo is the marketplace-discoverable mirror of the plugin. The plugin's source of truth lives in the AgentBox monorepo (
apps/cli/src/commands/install-herdr.ts);herdr-plugin.tomlandbuild.shhere are kept byte-identical to it.
Install
From the Herdr marketplace
herdr plugin install madarco/agentbox-herdr-plugin
On install, build.sh runs agentbox install herdr --plugin-keys, which writes
the shim and wires the keybindings. If the AgentBox CLI isn't on your PATH yet,
the plugin still installs (inert) and tells you how to finish:
npm i -g @madarco/agentbox && agentbox install herdr
With the AgentBox CLI already installed
npm i -g @madarco/agentbox && agentbox install herdr
This generates the same plugin under ~/.agentbox/herdr/plugin and links it
directly — no marketplace round-trip needed.
How it works
Herdr runs plugin commands as a bare argv with no shell expansion and an
unreliable PATH (e.g. under nvm). So AgentBox commands route through a small
agentbox-shim.sh, written at install time with the absolute path to your
AgentBox CLI — which keeps herdr-plugin.toml fully static and committable.
Keybindings are not declared in the manifest (Herdr ignores manifest keys);
they're spliced into your ~/.config/herdr/config.toml by the install step.
Remove them any time with herdr config reset-keys.
