What problem does it solve?
This Skill eliminates common failures in Aether Agents multi-Daimon workflows, including lost delegation sessions from timeouts, permanent data loss from Docker miscommands, silent MCP server failures from missing environment variables, and wasted compute from poor orchestration choices.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Delegation Patterns: Clear guidance on when to use blocking vs background delegation for Daimon tasks, how to implement silent monitoring for long-running work, and how to avoid timeout-related session loss.
- Operational Pitfall Recovery: Step-by-step fixes for Docker port conflicts, orphaned docker-proxy processes, missing MCP server configuration in config.yaml, and gateway environment variable injection issues.
- Cost Optimization: Validated, tested strategies to reduce LLM costs including model-tier separation, Daimon toolset trimming, and SOUL compression without breaking interactive user experience.
- Use Case: Imagine you delegated a 5-phase implementation to Hefesto that timed out after 2 phases. Use this Skill to recover partial progress, resume the remaining work, and avoid repeating the same timeout mistake in future delegations.
Quick Start
Use the aether-agents-orchestration skill to delegate a multi-phase coding task to Hefesto in the background, set up silent polling for completion, and verify the output matches your acceptance criteria without manual file checks.
