Hand to Claude Code or Codex
Send a coding card to Claude Code or Codex. The result comes back on the card.
Hand off a card
- On the card, open More and pick Hand to Codex or Hand to Claude Code. It shows when that tool is set up.
- Check the summary and what it gets, add a note if you like, and press Hand off. See the full job shows the whole brief.
The card then shows that it's working, and the result when it's done, with Show changes. Change asks it for changes; Hand off again starts over.
A job never sends anything for you.
Set it up
In Settings, General, under Coding agents:
- Claude Code session: the address of a Claude Code session.
- Codex cloud environment: its environment id.
- Runs on, and optionally a Branch.
Claude sends its result back through The Machine connector. Add it once in claude.ai, Settings, Connectors, Add custom connector, with the address shown there. For Codex on a hosted Machine, sign in under Codex on your setup page first.
Coding agents shows on a hosted Machine and on setups that run jobs elsewhere. More in the agents guide.
