task-routing

task-routing is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from MadAppGang/claude-code. It costs 70 tokens per session (464 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Use BEFORE delegating any complex task to a subagent. Contains the routing table that maps task patterns to the correct specialized agent. MUST be consulted before using the Task tool for delegation decisions. Trigger keywords - "delegate", "subagent", "agent", "research", "implement", "investigate", "debug"…

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

task-routing 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 today.

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.

What it actually says

Task Routing - Agent Delegation

IMPORTANT: For complex tasks, prefer delegating to specialized agents via the Task tool rather than handling inline. Delegated agents run in dedicated context windows with sustained focus, producing higher quality results.

Routing Table

Task Pattern Delegate To Trigger
Research: web search, tech comparison, multi-source reports dev:researcher 3+ sources or comparison needed
Implementation: creating code, new modules, features, building with tests dev:developer Writing new code, adding features, creating modules - even if they relate to existing codebase
Investigation: READ-ONLY codebase analysis, tracing, understanding code-analysis:detective Only when task is to UNDERSTAND code, not to WRITE new code
Debugging: error analysis, root cause investigation dev:debugger Non-obvious bugs or multi-file root cause
Architecture: system design, trade-off analysis dev:architect New systems or major refactors
Agent/plugin quality review agentdev:reviewer Agent description or plugin assessment

Key Distinction

If the task asks to IMPLEMENT/CREATE/BUILD → dev:developer. If the task asks to UNDERSTAND/ANALYZE/TRACE → code-analysis:detective.

When to Use This Skill

Consult this routing table BEFORE making any delegation decision. If the user's task matches any row in the table above, delegate to the specified agent rather than handling the task inline.

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.
