Claude Octopus - Multi-Tentacled Orchestrator

MANDATORY COMPLIANCE, DO NOT SKIP

When this skill is invoked, you MUST dispatch work to multiple providers in parallel. You are PROHIBITED from:

  • Running tasks sequentially with a single model instead of parallel multi-provider dispatch
  • Skipping orchestrate.sh and doing the work directly
  • Deciding the task is "simple enough" for a single provider
  • Substituting serial Claude-only execution for multi-LLM parallel execution

This skill exists specifically for multi-provider parallel work. If you catch yourself thinking "I'll just do this myself", STOP.


Multi-tentacled orchestrator for Claude Code - using Double Diamond methodology for comprehensive problem exploration, consensus building, and validated delivery.

Quick Start

Note for Claude Code users: You don't need to run these commands! Just talk naturally to Claude:

  • "Research OAuth authentication patterns"
  • "Build a user authentication system"
  • "Review this code for security issues"

The commands below are for direct CLI usage or automation.
