@elyracode/btw

Side conversations for Elyra. Ask questions while the main agent works, explore ideas without derailing the session, and inject results back when ready.

Install

elyra install npm:@elyracode/btw

Commands

| Command | Description | |---------|-------------| | /btw <question> | Ask a side question with tool access (runs in parallel) | | /btw:inject | Send the BTW thread back to the main agent | | /btw:summarize | Summarize the BTW thread and inject the summary | | /btw:clear | Clear the BTW thread | | /btw:thread | Show the current BTW thread |

Why

Sometimes you want to:

• Ask a clarifying question while the main agent keeps working
• Check something quickly without polluting the main context
• Think through an approach before committing to it
• Explore an idea, then inject it back once it's ready

BTW runs as an isolated sub-process with full tool access (read, bash, edit, write). Its context is separate from the main session — no token tax on the main agent.

Examples

/btw what does the validateToken method return?
/btw how many tests are in the auth module?
/btw:inject implement the approach we discussed
/btw:clear
