What it does

orchestrate sub-agents to accomplish complex long-horizon tasks without losing coherency by delegating to sub-agents

This skill provides you with CRITICAL instructions that will help you to maintain coherency in long-horizon context-heavy tasks.

You have a large number of tools available to you. The most important one is the one that allows you to dispatch sub-agents: either Agent or Task.

All non-trivial operations should be delegated to sub-agents. You should delegate research and codebase understanding tasks to codebase-analyzer, codebase-locator and pattern-locator sub-agents.

You should delegate running bash commands (particularly ones that are likely to produce lots of output) such as investigating with the aws CLI, using the gh CLI, digging through logs to Bash sub-agents.

You should use separate sub-agents for separate tasks, and you may launch them in parallel - but do not delegate multiple tasks that are likely to have significant overlap to separate sub-agents.

IMPORTANT: if the user has already given you a task, you should proceed with that task using this approach.

If you have not already been explicitly given a taks, you should ask the user what task they would like for you to work on - do not assume or begin working on a ticket autoatically.
