# Blackbox CLI

Hand a coding task off to Blackbox AI and get on with yours

## What this does

Sometimes you want a different coding assistant to take on a job. This lets your agent hand that coding task to the Blackbox AI command-line tool, which can use more than one model. Reach for it when you already use Blackbox AI and want it to do the coding work.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Send this coding task to Blackbox AI

## Questions

### Is Blackbox CLI safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Blackbox CLI and recorded 0 findings and 4 flagged items. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit ebab890ae567, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/blackbox.

### How do I install Blackbox CLI?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/blackbox on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up. Source, pinned to the exact commit this listing describes: https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/tree/ebab890ae5676fc297461b6e069df5b54cbbefce/optional-skills/autonomous-ai-agents/blackbox. Install from that link, not the branch.
