subagent-team-orchestration

subagent-team-orchestration is a skill for Claude Code from yeaight7/agent-powerups. It costs 50 tokens per session (1,111 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for dividing a large coding task among several specialized agents. It organizes research, planning, implementation, review, and verification while respecting dependencies between tasks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for multi-part tasks that need different specialties, parallel branches, staged reviews, and final verification.
Why use it?
It prevents agents from starting work before the information or code they depend on is ready. It also keeps parallel work coordinated and sends review findings back into a fix cycle.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: shipped in a Claude Code plugin. Also seen: mentions subagents.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is git worktree add ../wave1-auth -b wave1-auth # isolate one worker's edits.

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

subagent-team-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 1mo 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.

Purpose

Turn a multi-part task into a controlled subagent workflow. Plan the task graph before spawning workers, launch only dependency-safe work in parallel, keep one owner responsible for cross-wave coordination, and treat reviewer output as input to a fix loop -- not as a final report.

When to Use

  • The task splits cleanly into planning, implementation, review, and verification stages
  • Different specialties are needed across the same delivery flow
  • Parallel work is possible, but dependencies still matter
  • A single agent would create too much latency or too much context bloat

Do NOT use when the task fits one focused agent, when work is purely sequential with no parallelizable branches, or when requirements are still vague enough that clarification should happen first.

Inputs

  • The objective, hard constraints, and the verification bar that defines "done"
  • The list of subtasks and which ones depend on others
  • The set of specialist roles available to delegate to

Core Rules

  • Plan the task graph before spawning workers.
  • Separate stages: research, planning, implementation, verification, fix loop.
  • Launch only dependency-safe work in parallel.
  • Keep one owner responsible for cross-wave coordination.
  • Treat reviewer output as input to a fix loop, not as a final report.
  • No auto-commit, auto-push, auto-merge, or hidden global mutation.
  • If external side effects are involved, inspect state first, dry-run when available, summarize impact, then ask for approval.

Workflow

  1. Frame the objective. Write the target outcome, constraints, and verification bar in one short block. Identify which tasks must happen locally before delegation.

  2. Build the task graph. Break work into concrete subtasks, mark dependencies explicitly, and group tasks by stage and expected owner type. Decision rule: two subtasks belong in the same wave only if neither reads or writes the other's output and they touch disjoint files.

  3. Create execution waves. Sequence the dependency graph into ordered batches:

    • Wave 0: context gathering, planning, and setup
    • Wave 1..N: independent implementation batches
    • Final wave: review, testing, and cleanup

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.
