If you already use a coding agent locally, Twill slots in as its heavy-duty backend: brainstorm and spec locally where iteration is fast, then hand implementation to Twill for the parts local agents can’t do — full environment builds, integration tests, browser-driven UI verification, live previews.

Install the Twill skill

Tell your local agent:
Install the skill from https://twill.ai/skill.md and save it to your local skills/ directory.
The skill teaches your agent to create Twill tasks, check on them, answer their clarifying questions, and approve plans — all without leaving your terminal.

The workflow

  1. Spec locally. Work out what you want with your local agent — requirements, constraints, edge cases.
  2. Delegate. Your agent sends the spec to Twill as a task. Twill runs it in the cloud, asynchronously.
  3. Stay in your flow. Follow-ups, questions, and plan approvals round-trip through your local session.
  4. Review the PR. It comes back with test output, screenshots, and logs — same as any Twill task.

Teleport: pull a task down locally

Sometimes you want hands on keys. teleport pulls a Twill task’s full context — conversation, plan, work done so far — onto your machine so you can continue it locally:
twill teleport <task-slug>
# then resume the session in Claude Code:
claude -r <sessionId>
See the CLI reference for details, including SSH-ing straight into a task’s sandbox instead.
