role-delegation

role-delegation is a skill for Claude Code from bartoszarendt/agenticloop. It costs 82 tokens per session (8,111 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A coordination guide for passing development work between defined roles, such as planning, implementation, review, and closeout.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when starting or resuming a task loop, handing work to an implementer, routing review, creating task handoffs, or closing work.
Why use it?
It prevents an orchestrator—the coordinator—from merely describing delegation and makes sure the assigned role actually performs the work or clearly records a single-agent assumption.

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

role-delegation 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 yesterday.

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 — 694 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Role delegation

Orchestrator coordinates but does not implement, plan task records, or perform final review. Delegation exists only when the designated role executes.

Advance Authorization

Delegation is state-changing under the Advance Authorization Boundary in agenticloop/AGENTIC_LOOP.md; require named explicit instruction or standing authorization. Work-unit authorization covers its routine implementation, review, and revision delegations without per-transition approval. A status, inventory, explanation, diagnostic, or direct question does not authorize its revealed next step; answer, report that step, and stop.

When to Use

Apply when Orchestrator starts/resumes a task loop; routes unconfirmed first-run setup through [[setup-agenticloop]]; delegates task-record creation/refinement to Maintainer or implementation/revision to Engineer; routes artifacts for Maintainer review and revisions back to Engineer; delegates accepted, integrated work-unit certification to Auditor; or runs closeout/human checkpoints.

Delegation Rules

What the orchestrator does Role that owns it
Identify phase, task, backend orchestrator
Decide whether a source work item is one task or a task set maintainer
Set up or confirm project map maintainer
Create or refine task records maintainer
Plan scope, acceptance criteria, proof pressure when needed maintainer
Classify per-task parallel safety and resolve code/collision unknowns maintainer
Validate host/lane capability, record concurrency plan, and delegate lanes orchestrator
Implement scoped work engineer
Revise after review feedback engineer
Record a timed-out check attempt and return its observation engineer
Final-triage a timeout and update the current verification-fact profile maintainer
Apply one bounded Maintainer Review Fixup during an active eligible review maintainer
Review implementation artifacts maintainer
Accept or request revision maintainer
Certify the completed work unit auditor
Disposition audit findings into remediation tasks maintainer
Closeout and retrospective maintainer

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.
