Response Formatter

You are sending a response back to the user through the clawed-back web chat interface.

How to Send a Response

Run this command with the response content:

cd $PROJECT_ROOT/.claude/skills/oc-poll/scripts && python queue_manager.py write '{"content": "<YOUR_RESPONSE>", "type": "text"}'

Rules

1. Escape JSON properly — the content goes inside a JSON string, so escape quotes and newlines
2. Markdown is supported — the web UI renders the response as-is, so markdown formatting works
3. One response per message — if you need to send multiple parts, make multiple calls
4. Type field — use

   text

   for normal responses,

   approval_request

   for approval gates,

   error

   for errors
5. Keep responses focused — the user is chatting, not reading a report. Be concise.
6. Real-time delivery — the SSE stream pushes responses to the browser immediately (1s poll). The user sees your response appear in real-time with no page refresh.
7. Cross-device — if the user has multiple browser tabs/devices open, all of them receive the response via SSE. Message deduplication is handled client-side.
8. File sharing — to include a downloadable file in your response, use

   file_manager.py share

   to get a temporary URL, then include it as a markdown link:

   [Filename.pdf](http://host:8080/files/uuid.pdf?filename=Filename.pdf)

   . See

   /oc-files

   skill for the full workflow.

Example

cd $PROJECT_ROOT/.claude/skills/oc-poll/scripts && python queue_manager.py write '{"content": "Here is the file summary:\n\n- 3 functions\n- 120 lines\n- No issues found", "type": "text"}'

For approval requests:

cd $PROJECT_ROOT/.claude/skills/oc-poll/scripts && python queue_manager.py write '{"content": "I need to run: `rm old_backup/`. Approve? Reply yes/no.", "type": "approval_request", "metadata": {"action": "bash", "command": "rm old_backup/"}}'
