run-agents

run-agents is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Jerry0022/dotclaude. It costs 111 tokens per session (2,255 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

An orchestration skill that evaluates a task and coordinates several coding agents, either at the same time or in sequence. Orchestration means dividing work between agents and managing how their results fit together.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to analyze task scope, dependencies, complexity, and risk, then choose and coordinate suitable agents.
Why use it?
It helps with tasks that span multiple areas or benefit from separate implementation, testing, and review work.

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

run-agents 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 5d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 210 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Run Agents

Evaluate which agents add value for $ARGUMENTS, then orchestrate their execution.

Step 0 — Load Extensions

Check for optional overrides. Use Glob to verify each path exists before reading. Do NOT call Read on files that may not exist — skip missing files silently (no output).

  1. Global: ~/.claude/skills/run-agents/SKILL.md + reference.md
  2. Project: {project}/.claude/skills/run-agents/SKILL.md + reference.md
  3. Merge: project > global > plugin defaults

Step 1 — Task Analysis

Analyze $ARGUMENTS to understand:

  1. Domains touched — which areas of the codebase are affected?
  2. Complexity — single-domain vs. cross-cutting?
  3. Dependencies — what must happen before what?
  4. Risk level — does this need QA/PO review?

If $ARGUMENTS is empty or vague, ask ONE focused question via AskUserQuestion. Use the wording matching the active [ui-locale: ...] (defaults to en):

  • en: "What exactly should be orchestrated? (Feature, refactoring, bugfix, research...)"
  • de: "Was genau soll orchestriert werden? (Feature, Refactoring, Bugfix, Research...)"

Step 1.5 — Permission Audit

Before spawning agents, scan recent sessions for MCP tools that were used but are NOT covered by the current ~/.claude/settings.json allow-list. Prevents permission prompts from interrupting wave execution — especially painful with parallel agents.

node "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/scripts/permission-audit.js" --days=7 --quiet

Parse the JSON suggestions array:

  • Empty → skip silently, continue to Step 2.

  • Non-empty → present ALL suggestions in one AskUserQuestion multi-select. Never auto-apply — every rule needs user confirmation, to prevent log-forgery from seeding the allow-list. Each option = one suggested rule, labeled with its risk marker:

    • 🟢 low: user-installed plugin/runtime MCPs (mcp__plugin_*, mcp__ccd_*)
    • 🟡 medium: third-party / unknown MCPs — include the rationale text

    Pre-recommend the 🟢 ones in the description. Header: "Permissions", question: "Diese MCP-Tools wurden zuletzt genutzt aber sind nicht erlaubt. Welche zur Allow-Liste hinzufügen?"

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.

Changes

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.

run-agents is a skill published in the GitHub repository Jerry0022/dotclaude (5 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 111 tokens to every session and 2,255 once invoked, about $0.0006 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 2026-08-31.
