What problem does it solve? Coordinating complex software engineering work across planning, implementation, and QA phases is error-prone when done ad hoc. This Skill provides a structured orchestration layer that classifies any engineering request into one of 8 task types (FEATURE, BUGFIX, REFACTORING, DOCUMENTATION, RESEARCH, DEVOPS, SAAS_INIT, CREATIVE) and drives it through an optimized multi-agent workflow with user validation checkpoints. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Task Classification & Strategy Selection: Detects task type via keyword matrix and complexity scoring, then selects Full, Partial, or Minimal workflow depth with confidence-based decision rules. - 14 Specialist Agents: Coordinates project-manager, software-architect, team-leader, developers, testers, reviewers, researchers, and creative agents through defined invocation patterns and parallel execution where safe. - User Validation Checkpoints: Enforces approval gates after requirements and architecture deliverables, plus QA selection, so nothing ships without explicit sign-off. - 3-Tier CLI Delegation: Optionally lets sub-agents spawn CLI agents (gemini, codex, copilot, ptah-cli) as junior helpers for grunt work like file analysis and test scaffolding, with session resume on timeout. - Use Case: A user reports a memory leak. The skill classifies it as BUGFIX, invokes a researcher to find the root cause, a team-leader to decompose and verify the fix, and a senior-tester to write regression tests, all tracked in a task folder. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to orchestrate a new task, for example: run /orchestrate followed by a description such as "add WebSocket support for real-time updates" and approve the proposed strategy.
