Groundwork
Add Groundwork when you want multi-CLI code review (Tribunal), task routing across Codex/Gemini/Grok (delegate), and an on-demand FPF reasoning corpus builder in one marketplace.
Overview
groundwork is a plugin marketplace for the Ship phase that provides Tribunal multi-CLI parallel code review plus delegate routing and an FPF reasoning corpus builder for solo agent workflows.
What is this marketplace?
- 4 plugins: tribunal, delegate, fpf, plus the marketplace bundle from Roman Voronin’s groundwork repo.
- Tribunal keeps your active CLI as arbiter while other CLIs audit in parallel; standard mode uses two auditors, --critica
- Delegate ships a routing matrix for model and reasoning effort by task type—review, architecture, scans, docs, web-aware
- Delegate calls raw codex exec, gemini, and grok -p binaries—no wrapper required per listing.
- FPF plugin bundles operational SKILL subset plus refresh script that pulls ailev/FPF upstream into modular cards on firs
- 4 plugins in the groundwork marketplace (tribunal, delegate, fpf, and bundled entries per catalog).
- Tribunal standard mode runs two auditor CLIs; --critical mode runs three alternate auditors per description.
What problem does it solve?
Shipping as a one-person team with a single model feels fast until you realize no independent second opinion caught the risky diff.
Who is it for?
Power users already running Claude Code alongside Codex, Gemini, or Grok who want structured review and routing without building custom orchestration scripts.
Skip if: Beginners on a single assistant with no appetite to install multiple CLIs or read competing audit reports.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After you install Groundwork, you can route tasks across CLIs deliberately and run Tribunal audits whose verdicts you read before merging security-sensitive or unfamiliar code.
- Tribunal-driven parallel audit reports from peer CLIs
- Delegate-guided model and effort choices per task type
- On-demand local FPF module graph after refresh script runs against upstream spec

Journey fit
Groundwork’s headline value is Tribunal—parallel independent review by other AI CLIs before merge—so the canonical shelf is ship-phase code review even though delegate and FPF support earlier tooling and reasoning. Pre-merge and security-sensitive audits are the primary invoke moment; delegate and FPF extend the same marketplace into routing and structured reasoning baselines.
How it compares
Multi-CLI review and routing marketplace, not a frontend animation pack or hosting MCP server.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is Groundwork for?
Groundwork is for indie developers and tech leads using Claude Code who also run Codex, Gemini, or Grok and want packaged review and delegation instead of ad hoc copy-paste between tools.
When should I use Groundwork?
Use Tribunal before merges and on security-critical changes; use delegate when choosing models for scans or docs; use FPF when you want a structured reasoning baseline before committing to a design.
How do I add Groundwork to my agent?
Register the Groundwork marketplace in Claude Code, install tribunal, delegate, and fpf from random1st/Groundwork, ensure codex, gemini, and grok binaries are on PATH, then invoke Tribunal or delegate per each plugin’s SKILL instructions.
