What problem does it solve? When acting as an orchestrator in a multi-agent Kanban setup, it is easy to do the work yourself, invent profile names that silently fail, or mislink task dependencies. This Skill provides the decomposition playbook and anti-temptation rules for routing work through the board instead of executing it. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Profile Discovery First: Grounds every plan in the profiles that actually exist on the machine via hermes profile list, preventing cards from sitting in ready forever due to unknown assignees. - Task Graph Decomposition: Extracts independent lanes from a request, maps them to profiles, and creates parallel cards plus parent-gated synthesis cards using kanban_create with parents=[...]. - Worker Recovery: Covers reclaiming stuck tasks, reassigning to a different profile, and changing a profile's model when workers crash or hallucinate. - Use Case: A user asks to "research Postgres migration costs and performance, then draft a CTO memo." The orchestrator fans out two parallel research cards, gates a synthesis card on both, and gates the memo draft on the synthesis. ## Quick Start Act as the kanban orchestrator: list my available profiles, then decompose my request into linked Kanban tasks and assign each to the right profile.
