SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables you to delegate research and implementation tasks to external AI agents running via the command line, saving you time and token budget by letting automated agents perform heavy lifting while you focus on strategy and decisions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • CLI-based AI agent orchestration: Run Gemini CLI, Copilot CLI, or similar tools to perform tasks.
  • Task delegation & progress tracking: Distribute work to agents and collect results to present to user.
  • Use Case: When you need to perform long research or coding tasks, instruct this Skill to orchestrate an external AI agent to complete the task and summarize results for you.

Quick Start

Use the ai-task-runner to delegate a task to an external AI agent, e.g., gemini --approval-mode=auto_edit -p 'Summarize the latest developments in AI agent marketplaces' and return the results.

FAQPage Schema
How can I delegate research and coding tasks to external AI agents?

Delegate tasks to external AI agents by invoking CLI tools like Gemini CLI or Copilot CLI through Bash commands with structured prompts. The agents execute the work independently and return results you can review, freeing your token budget and focus for strategy decisions.

When should I use task delegation to external AI agents instead of handling tasks directly?

Use task delegation when you have long-running research, code exploration, or implementation tasks that consume significant tokens or time. Offloading to external agents preserves your context for high-level dialogue and policy decisions while agents handle heavy lifting.

What approval modes are available when running external AI agents via CLI?

External AI agents support approval modes like auto_edit that let you control how changes are applied. Configure the mode when invoking the agent command to balance automation with oversight based on your workflow requirements.

Can I track progress and collect results from delegated tasks?

Yes, task delegation orchestrates external agents and collects their results for downstream review and use. The framework returns actionable outputs suitable for analysis, integration, or presentation to stakeholders.

What safety constraints apply when delegating to external AI agents?

Safety constraints and approval modes govern how external agents execute tasks. Configure these parameters when invoking agents to enforce your security and operational policies on delegated work.
