agent-coordination

agent-coordination is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from bybren-llc/safe-agentic-workflow. It costs 54 tokens per session (1,063 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for coordinating work among specialist coding agents. It covers assigning the right specialist, escalating blockers, coordinating tasks, and checking that planning is complete before implementation starts.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when dividing work across agents, coordinating a multi-agent project, escalating unresolved problems, or checking the planning and approval gate.
Why use it?
It helps prevent work from going to the wrong specialist, keeps blockers from being ignored, and ensures coding begins with agreed requirements.

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

agent-coordination 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 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.

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.

Agent Coordination Skill

TEMPLATE: This skill uses {{PLACEHOLDER}} tokens. Replace with your project values before use.

Purpose

Guide correct agent assignment, blocker escalation, and delivery coordination following the TDM role boundaries.

When This Skill Applies

  • Assigning work to specialist agents
  • Managing blockers across agents
  • Coordinating multi-agent workflows
  • Escalating issues to ARCHitect/POPM
  • Verifying pre-implementation gate
  • Updating ticket system with evidence

Stop-the-Line Conditions

FORBIDDEN Patterns

# FORBIDDEN: Wrong agent assignment
Database work -> BE Developer    # WRONG: Use Data Engineer!
Security validation -> QAS       # WRONG: Use Security Engineer!
Documentation -> BE Developer    # WRONG: Use Tech Writer!

# FORBIDDEN: Skipping pre-implementation gate
Start coding before BSA spec    # Must have acceptance criteria first

# FORBIDDEN: Unresolved blockers >4 hours
Blocker exists but not escalated  # Escalate within 1 hour

CORRECT Patterns

# CORRECT: Right agent for the job
Database work -> Data Engineer
Security validation -> Security Engineer
Documentation -> Tech Writer
Planning/Specs -> BSA
Architecture review -> System Architect
API implementation -> BE Developer
UI implementation -> FE Developer
Testing -> QAS
PR/Release -> RTE

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.
