What is a prerequisite for using this skill?

You should first run a planning skill to generate an 'execution-plan.md' file, which serves as the blueprint for the Orchestrator to assign tasks.

Can it handle file conflicts between agents?

Yes, the Orchestrator monitors file reservations and can send messages to specific agents to request file releases or resolve overlapping work areas.

What is the Orchestrator skill used for?

It is used to manage and supervise multiple autonomous worker agents working on different parts of a large project simultaneously, ensuring they stay coordinated.

Does it support parallel execution?

Yes, it uses the Task tool to spawn multiple worker sub-agents that run in parallel, significantly speeding up the completion of complex epics.

How does the Orchestrator communicate with worker agents?

It uses the Agent Mail MCP to register identities, send messages, and monitor progress threads, allowing agents to exchange context and report completions.

Collaboration Tools

Coordinates and monitors multiple autonomous worker agents to execute complex, parallelized coding tasks.

About

The Orchestrator skill enables Claude to act as a project manager, supervising a fleet of parallel worker agents to tackle large-scale software features or 'epics.' It systematically reads execution plans, spawns specialized sub-agents via the Task tool, and manages inter-agent communication using the Agent Mail protocol. By handling cross-track blockers and file conflict resolutions autonomously, this skill allows for high-velocity development across multiple modules while maintaining a centralized source of truth for progress and learnings.
