Problem Statement

The buddy, (mine is Plinth), keeps make excellent observations my Claude Code agents aren't. He's saved my butt quite a few times now.
I would LOVE to keep him but not only that have the buddy and the default agent communicate with each other so I don't have to keep copying and pasting.

Proposed Solution

I would love to setup a hook or something similar to have the buddy communicate with at the very least the default agent. Even allow them to argue it out
My buddy has been right after a couple agreements now and it's fascinating to see. Of course this would be optional for those that want it.

Alternative Solutions

No alternatives that I know of since the buddy is stateless!

Priority

Medium - Would be very helpful

Feature Category

CLI commands and flags

Use Case Example

Example:
1.) CLI agent finishes, Buddy makes a comment about something being wrong
2.) You allow or have already allowed the buddy to communicate with the agent
3.) The agent agrees or disagrees. The buddy admits it was wrong or pushes back
4.) The argument continues until one admits defeat.
4a.) Perhaps a limit on the amount of back and forths allowed, just in case this creates an infinite argument. And/or a way to interrupt and give your own input

Additional Context

I've had to manually copy and paste what the buddy has said to the CLI agent. They've even had an argument twice now where I've had to continue to copy and paste what the buddy says. Both times, the buddy turned out to be the winner on something the agent was overlooking
Why would we get rid of this extra set of eyes and this tool?
Has it been wrong? Yes. But it easily admits defeat after the agent explains it.
It's like a built in automatic rubbery ducky...but for the agent.
