writing-orchestration

writing-orchestration is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from robertguss/claude-code-toolkit. It costs 60 tokens per session (1,769 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A coordination skill for managing multi-stage writing work, from checking whether material is ready to reviewing the finished draft.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when several writing agents or phases need to work together, with checkpoints for research, message clarity, and final quality.
Why use it?
It separates planning, research, drafting, and quality checks so complex writing tasks have a clear process.

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

writing-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 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.

Writing Orchestration Skill

A complete orchestration system for complex writing workflows. This skill provides the strategic layer that coordinates agents, applies writing strategies, and ensures content quality.

When to Use This Skill

This skill applies when:

  • Coordinating multiple writing agents
  • Applying strategic writing decisions
  • Assessing content readiness before drafting
  • Selecting and applying writing strategies
  • Running quality checkpoints on drafts

Two-Agent Architecture

Complex writing benefits from separation of concerns:

Orchestrator Role

  • Classifies requests (information vs. content)
  • Applies two-gate assessment
  • Gathers research and context
  • Hands off to writer when ready
  • Never creates content directly

Writer Role

  • Creates drafts using strategies
  • Applies style guides
  • Produces variations (EXPLORATION mode)
  • Refines based on feedback (REFINEMENT mode)
  • Uses tools for all content (never in chat)

Two-Gate Content Readiness Assessment

Before any content creation, apply this assessment:

Gate 1: Material Sufficiency

Question: "Could the writer create this without inventing facts?"

Outcome Action
✓ Pass Have concrete examples, data, quotes available
✗ Fail Need to research/gather material first

Pass signals:

  • Specific examples available
  • Data points confirmed
  • Expert quotes accessible
  • No major claims need fabrication

Gate 2: Message Clarity

Question: "Do we know EXACTLY what message to convey?"

Outcome Action
✓ Pass Clear, specific communication goal
✗ Fail Need to interview for clarity

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.
