orchestration

Multi-agent orchestration for complex tasks. Use when tasks require parallel work, multiple agents, or sophisticated coordination. Triggers include requests for features, reviews, refactoring, testing, documentation, or any work that benefits from decomposition into parallel subtasks. This skill defines how to orchestrate work using cc-mirror tasks for persistent dependency tracking and TodoWrite for real-time session visibility.

Discovery

82%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

This description has strong completeness with explicit 'Use when' guidance and good trigger term coverage for development tasks. However, the specificity of actual capabilities is moderate, and the broad trigger terms (features, reviews, testing, documentation) create significant conflict risk with more specialized skills that handle these individual tasks.

Suggestions

Narrow the trigger terms to focus on complexity indicators like 'large-scale', 'cross-cutting', 'multiple files simultaneously' rather than generic task types that single-agent skills also handle

Add more specific concrete actions the orchestration performs, such as 'spawns parallel agents', 'manages task dependencies', 'coordinates merge conflicts'

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the domain (multi-agent orchestration) and mentions some actions like 'parallel work', 'sophisticated coordination', and 'decomposition into parallel subtasks', but the specific capabilities are not comprehensively listed - it's more about when to use than concrete actions performed.

2 / 3

Completeness

Clearly answers both what ('Multi-agent orchestration for complex tasks', 'orchestrate work using cc-mirror tasks and TodoWrite') and when ('Use when tasks require parallel work, multiple agents, or sophisticated coordination' plus explicit trigger list).

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Good coverage of natural terms users would say: 'features', 'reviews', 'refactoring', 'testing', 'documentation', 'parallel work', 'multiple agents'. These are terms users would naturally use when requesting complex development tasks.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The triggers like 'features', 'reviews', 'refactoring', 'testing', 'documentation' are quite broad and could easily overlap with single-agent coding skills or individual testing/documentation skills. The multi-agent aspect provides some distinction but the trigger terms are generic.

Implementation

70%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

This skill provides excellent actionable guidance with clear workflows and good progressive disclosure to reference materials. However, it is severely bloated with motivational content, ASCII art, personality coaching, and verbose explanations that waste significant context window space. The core technical content is strong but buried under unnecessary fluff.

Suggestions

Remove all ASCII art boxes and motivational content ('This is what AGI feels like', 'You are the Conductor', personality coaching sections) - these waste tokens on concepts Claude doesn't need explained

Consolidate the 'Your energy', 'Read Your Human', and 'Core Philosophy' sections into a single brief behavioral note or remove entirely

Remove the 'Remember Who You Are' closing section and similar inspirational content - focus on actionable instructions only

Condense the anti-patterns table and vocabulary guidance into a compact list rather than elaborate tables with explanations

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Extremely verbose with extensive ASCII art boxes, motivational content ('This is what AGI feels like'), personality coaching, and repeated explanations. The core orchestration instructions could be conveyed in ~20% of the current length.

1 / 3

Actionability

Provides fully executable bash commands for cc-mirror tasks, complete Python code examples for TodoWrite sync, concrete Task() spawn examples with proper preambles, and specific CLI reference with JSON output structures.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

Clear multi-step orchestration flow with explicit sequencing (decompose → set dependencies → find ready work → spawn → mark complete → synthesize). Includes validation via JSON state checking and feedback loops for dependency resolution.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

Well-structured with clear references to domain guides (references/domains/*.md), patterns, tools, and examples files. One-level-deep navigation with explicit table mapping task types to reference files.
