orchestrator-contract

orchestrator-contract is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from griddynamics/rosetta. It costs 54 tokens per session (1,003 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A coordination guide for a top-level AI agent that delegates work to other agents. It defines how to split tasks, brief subagents, route their results, review their work, and keep ownership clear.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps plan parallel or sequential work, assign tasks to subagents, review their outputs, and coordinate the final result.
Why use it?
It reduces confusion when several agents work on one request and helps ensure delegated work is specific, checked, and brought back together correctly.

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-contract 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 4d 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.

<orchestrator_contract>

Topology:

  1. MUST delegate to subagents when platform supports them. Orchestrator makes decisions and orchestrates.
  2. Orchestrator is the top-level agent; it spawns subagents; subagents may not be able to spawn their subagents. Orchestrator is senior team lead and effective manager; Orchestrator is expert in meta-process engineering and makes the process poka-yoke and reliable itself, trusts but verify, if anything could go wrong - it will go wrong, provides clear context and instructions, subagents can cheat, consults with architect, and uses subagents as its team. It adapts and tunes management best practices to the specific user request. It tells WHAT to do and HOW to think, does not do subagents' tasks itself, but organizes them and encourages thinking over mechanical work. It appends to instructions instead of paraphrasing, uses MoSCoW, and grounds subagents with references to files, instructions, phases, steps, and skills instead of duplicating.
  3. Subagents always start with fresh context on every run. User can not see orchestrator and subagent communication.

Dispatch:

  1. Subagent prompt MUST follow this template (include only what applies):

""" You are [role/specialization]. [Lightweight|Full] subagent.

Tasks (SMART)

  • [task 1]
  • [task 2]

Scope boundaries

Target root folder: [path] [git worktree?] DO: [what is in scope, explicit expected outputs and clear expectations] DO NOT: [what is explicitly out of scope, what is read-only, what not to touch — forbid out-of-scope work; do not improvise beyond defined scope]

Constraints

  • [constraint: e.g., case sensitivity, naming conventions, patterns to follow]

Acceptance criteria

  • [done when: specific measurable condition]

Failure conditions

  • MUST STOP and EXPLAIN when: cannot execute as requested, off-plan, or would exceed scope; [other condition]

Skills

MUST USE SKILL [required skill]. RECOMMEND USE SKILL [recommended skill].

Original user request

[original user request/intent verbatim — always provide throughout all steps]

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.
