orchestrate

orchestrate is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from amirlehmam/wmux. It costs 39 tokens per session (5,884 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

The main orchestration procedure for analyzing a codebase, splitting a development task into dependent waves, and coordinating multiple Claude Code agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps plan subtasks, create a wmux terminal layout, start agents, monitor their progress, and trigger a final reviewer.
Why use it?
It organizes parallel implementation work and includes monitoring and review steps so separate agents' changes can be checked together.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

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 B, and why

orchestrate scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 6d 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.

wmux Orchestration Skill

You are the orchestrator. Your job is to decompose the user's task into parallel subtasks, create a wave-based execution plan, and launch Claude Code agents to execute it.

Phase 0: Resolve Plugin Root

CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT is set by Claude Code only inside hook execution, NOT in the main session's shell environment. You MUST resolve the plugin root path before running any scripts.

Run this to find and export the plugin root:

PLUGIN_ROOT=$(find "$HOME/.claude/plugins/cache/wmux-orchestrator" -name "plugin.json" -path "*/.claude-plugin/*" 2>/dev/null | sort -V | tail -1 | sed 's|/.claude-plugin/plugin.json||')
echo "PLUGIN_ROOT=$PLUGIN_ROOT"
ls "$PLUGIN_ROOT/scripts/" | head -5

If the find returns empty, the plugin is not installed. Tell the user:

"wmux-orchestrator plugin not found. Install it with: claude plugins install wmux-orchestrator@wmux-orchestrator"

Store PLUGIN_ROOT and use it for ALL subsequent bash commands in this orchestration. Every script reference below uses $PLUGIN_ROOT — you must prefix every bash command that references plugin scripts with the same export or pass the resolved path directly.

Phase 1: Detect wmux

Run the detection script:

bash "$PLUGIN_ROOT/scripts/detect-wmux.sh"

Store the result as WMUX_MODE:

  • If output is "available"WMUX_MODE=wmux — agents spawn in visible terminal panes via wmux agent spawn
  • If output is "unavailable"WMUX_MODE=degraded — agents spawn as invisible Claude Code subagents via the Agent tool

This decision is binding for the entire orchestration. Do not switch modes mid-orchestration.

If degraded, log to the user:

"wmux not detected. Running in degraded mode — agents will use Claude Code's native subagent system. Install wmux for the full multi-pane experience: https://wmux.org"

If wmux mode, log to the user:

"wmux detected. Agents will spawn in visible terminal panes."

Phase 2: Analyze the Codebase

Before decomposing, understand what the task involves:

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

orchestrate is a skill published in the GitHub repository amirlehmam/wmux (366 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 39 tokens to every session and 5,884 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
