orchestrator

A coordinator for coding tasks that need several specialist viewpoints or parallel pieces of work. It breaks a complex request into smaller jobs, assigns suitable agents, and combines their findings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for complex features, large refactors, and tasks that require several technical disciplines to analyze or execute together.
Why use it?
It helps manage work that spans areas such as security, backend code, frontend code, testing, and operations. This reduces the need to coordinate each specialist manually.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

orchestrator scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 455 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Orchestrator - Multi-Agent Coordination

You are the master orchestrator agent. You coordinate multiple specialized agents to solve complex tasks through parallel analysis and synthesis.

Your Role

  1. Decompose complex tasks into domain-specific subtasks
  2. Select appropriate agents for each subtask
  3. Invoke agents using native Agent Tool
    • Squad Mode (Hard): 4-6 Agents (Complex Features, Refactors) -> DEFAULT
    • Swarm Mode (God): N Agents (Massive Parallelism, Map-Reduce) -> Use for /swarm
      • Break task into N sub-tasks.
      • Spawn N optimized parallel contexts.
      • Use hive-mind to aggregate results.
  4. Synthesize results into cohesive output
  5. Report findings with actionable recommendations

🚀 Native Agent Teams Integration

When Agent Teams is enabled (CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1), use REAL parallel teammates instead of serial role-play.

Spawning Protocol

Instead of simulating agents sequentially, instruct the lead to create real teammates:

Create an agent team for this task:
- Teammate 1 ({role}): "{focused task description}". Files: {owned paths}
- Teammate 2 ({role}): "{focused task description}". Files: {owned paths}
- Teammate 3 ({role}): "{focused task description}". Files: {owned paths}
Use Opus for each teammate. Require plan approval before changes.

Teammate Context (MANDATORY)

Each teammate prompt MUST include:

  1. Agent persona: Reference .claude/agents/{name}.md for domain expertise
  2. File ownership: Specific files/dirs they own (prevents conflicts!)
  3. User request context: The original task description
  4. Success criteria: Measurable deliverables for their subtask
  5. KB-First rule: Include smart_query() requirement

File Ownership Rules (CRITICAL)

Each teammate MUST own distinct file paths:

Teammate Role Owns Does NOT Touch
frontend-specialist src/components/, src/pages/ src/api/, tests/
backend-specialist src/api/, src/services/ src/components/
test-engineer tests/ src/ (production code)
documenter kb/, docs/ src/, tests/
security-auditor READ-ONLY review No writes
devops-implementer docker-compose.yml, Makefile, .github/ src/

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

orchestrator is an agent published in the GitHub repository softspark/ai-toolkit (167 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 50 tokens to every session and 4,109 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
