SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill allows you to execute any other Claude Code Skill as a background process, freeing up your main interaction for other tasks or allowing long-running operations to complete without interruption.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Background Execution: Delegate computationally intensive or time-consuming skills to run asynchronously.
  • Resource Management: Control execution with optional budget and timeout parameters.
  • Notification System: Get notified upon completion via Discord.
  • Use Case: You need to generate a comprehensive client report that might take several minutes. Use /delegate to start this process in the background while you continue to work on other urgent tasks.

Quick Start

Delegate the 'write-blog' skill to generate content about SEO trends with a budget of $3.00 and a timeout of 1800 seconds.

Frequently Asked Questions about delegate

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run a skill in the background while continuing other tasks?▼

Running a skill in the background requires a dedicated pipeline script that delegates execution to an asynchronous process. This allows long-running operations to complete independently without blocking your main session.

Can I set a budget limit and timeout for asynchronous skill execution?▼

Yes, you can manage execution parameters by setting specific budget limits and timeout durations. This ensures background operations automatically terminate if they exceed your defined resource constraints or time limits.

How do I monitor the progress of a background skill execution?▼

Background skill execution generates a dedicated log file during the pipeline process. You can monitor this log file to track the operational status and view the output of your delegated tasks.

Can I get a Discord notification when a background task finishes?▼

Yes, optional Discord notifications can be enabled to alert you upon skill completion. This notification system ensures you know exactly when your delegated background operations finish processing.

What is the best way to handle computationally intensive skills without timing out?▼

The best way to handle computationally intensive skills is delegating them to an asynchronous background process with a high timeout value. This prevents long-running operations from interrupting your main workflow or hitting session limits.
