task-orchestration

task-orchestration is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mgd34msu/goodvibes-plugin. It costs 54 tokens per session (727 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A method for splitting a large coding task into smaller jobs that several agents can handle, using built-in workflow tools and a Write-Review-Fix-Confirm pattern.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan multi-agent implementation, testing, architecture, and review work, including which jobs run together and which must wait.
Why use it?
It makes dependencies and completion criteria explicit, so independent work can happen in parallel and later work receives the right results.

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

task-orchestration 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 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.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 56 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

task-orchestration

v1's orchestration text predates native multi-agent workflow support and was written around a bespoke runtime engine (a background daemon coordinating agents via IPC, directives, and a phase-machine). That daemon is cut for v2. The deep review found no standing usage that justified keeping a background process running per session, and native Task/Workflow tooling already covers the observed needs. This skill is the rebuild: orchestration using what the platform gives you directly, plus the WRFC template as a pattern, not infrastructure.

Decomposing work

Break a task into steps where each step:

  • Has a single agent type responsible for it (engineer, tester, refutation-reviewer, architect).
  • Has an explicit "done" condition, not a vague direction ("implement the API" is not a step; "implement POST /api/posts per the spec architect produced, with the validation and error cases it lists" is).
  • States its real dependencies: which steps must finish first, and what output they hand off.

Independent steps (no shared dependency) can run as parallel Task-tool calls in the same turn. Dependent steps run sequentially, with each agent's output feeding the next agent's task description directly. Don't route it through a shared mutable file unless the next agent actually needs to read that file itself.

The WRFC pattern: Write → Review → Fix → Confirm

For any change worth reviewing before it ships:

  1. Write. The engineer agent implements the change.
  2. Review. The refutation-reviewer agent reviews the actual diff (see the review-scoring skill for the rubric: a defect list with severity, not a scalar score).
  3. Fix. If the review found CONFIRMED critical/high defects, the engineer addresses them. Cap this at a small, explicit number of iterations (2-3). An unbounded fix loop is a sign the task needs re-scoping, not more iterations.
  4. Confirm. The FIX gets reviewed too, not assumed correct. Only after a fix iteration passes review (or the loop is explicitly capped and escalated to the user) is the change done.

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.

task-orchestration is a skill published in the GitHub repository mgd34msu/goodvibes-plugin (6 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 54 tokens to every session and 727 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
