delegate

delegate is a skill for Claude Code from LandonSchropp/agent-toolkit. It costs 39 tokens per session (903 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A guide for handing work to an agent working in a different repository. A repository is the project folder containing its code, history, and configuration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to turn completed work into a skill for another repository or to pass a change to a dependent project.
Why use it?
It prevents changes from being made with the wrong project context when related work belongs elsewhere.

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

delegate 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 today.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/prompt.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Subtle steeringmediumPrompt injection

Instructions that bias recommendations or shape behaviour without the user noticing.

Delegation is final. Say what was sent and where, then stop — never tell the user the agent will "report back" or "let you know" when it's done. Nothing it does flows back through this session; the user checks its progre

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 51 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Delegate

Hand a task to the environment best placed to do it. Choose the environment first; it decides everything else.

Choosing the Environment

Answer these in order and stop at the first that decides it:

  1. Is it engineering? If not, it goes to Non-Engineering. Visual design is Non-Engineering work done in Claude Design.
  2. Is it personal engineering? It goes to Local Engineering, since Cloud Engineering only takes work. is-work-computer tells you which machine you're on.
  3. Can success be verified without the user's judgment? If so, and it doesn't need the user's Mac, it goes to Cloud Engineering. If it needs the Mac, the development environment, or the user's judgment as it goes (naming, UX, architecture designed in real time), it goes to Local Engineering.

Route by the task, never by where this session happens to be running. Your own environment changes how you reach a target, never which target gets the task. When the questions don't settle it, ask the user.

Skills

A skill that lives in a repository goes to Local Engineering: the one it is already in, or else personal-agent-toolkit when it's about managing the user's personal life or shouldn't be in a public repository, agent-toolkit when it's the user's own engineering tooling, and babylist/claude-plugins when it's for work. Non-Engineering's own skills are built and maintained there rather than delegated.

Writing the Prompt

The receiving agent has none of this conversation, and nothing it replies reaches you. A prompt saying "turn what we just did into a skill" is worthless to it. State, in the task's own terms:

  • What the task is, in full. Where it came from a Linear issue, give the issue's URL rather than repeating its contents.
  • What already happened that the agent needs to know, and where: repository, files, commits.
  • What you have and have not already changed yourself, so it doesn't redo or undo work.

Files

What ships with it

5 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.

delegate is a skill published in the GitHub repository LandonSchropp/agent-toolkit (3 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 39 tokens to every session and 903 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (subtle steering). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
