orchestrate

orchestrate is a skill for Claude Code from softspark/ai-toolkit. It costs 26 tokens per session (853 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A coordination guide for dividing work among multiple specialized coding agents. It requires breaking a task into separate areas and running independent agents in parallel after approval.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to coordinate backend, frontend, testing, security, documentation, or other specialized agents on a shared task.
Why use it?
It helps organize larger tasks so different parts can be handled concurrently without overlapping file changes.

    Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.
    Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.

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

orchestrate 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 13d 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.

$ARGUMENTS

Only in Claude Code, apply the model-routing-patterns skill when choosing executors or creating agent definitions. Delegate to codex:codex-rescue only when its plugin is installed, enabled and callable in this session. Otherwise use the installed native agents and their configured models. A context without the Agent tool returns the dispatch decision to its supervisor; it does not invent a tool or bypass the client. Preserve explicit user choices and verify actual completion before accepting a delegated result.

Choose the available execution mode

When the Agent tool is available, decompose the task and delegate owned work to real agents. The supervisor integrates and verifies their results. If the runtime has no delegation support, do the authorized work in the current session and report that limitation. Never invent agent calls or present role-play as delegation.

Step 1 — Decompose

Analyze the task and identify 3–6 sub-domains (e.g. backend, frontend, security, testing, docs). Define clear file ownership per domain so agents don't conflict.

Present the decomposition and obtain any approval not already covered by the user's instructions. Preserve approval already given for the task.

Step 2 — Spawn agents in parallel (REQUIRED)

When available, call the Agent tool for independent sub-domains in parallel, within the runtime's concurrency and nesting limits. Execute dependent tasks in order and use the current-session fallback when delegation is unavailable.

Example for a feature implementation task:

Agent(subagent_type="backend-specialist", prompt="...", ...)
Agent(subagent_type="frontend-specialist", prompt="...", ...)
Agent(subagent_type="test-engineer", prompt="...", ...)
Agent(subagent_type="security-auditor", prompt="...", ...)

Each agent prompt MUST include:

  1. The original user task
  2. The specific sub-task this agent owns
  3. File paths this agent is allowed to modify
  4. Success criteria for this agent's work

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.

orchestrate is a skill published in the GitHub repository softspark/ai-toolkit (180 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 853 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-03.
