orchestrate
Coordinate focused subagents on substantial work, keep their ownership non-overlapping, and integrate verified results. Use for large-scope Codex tasks; keep trivial work with the coordinator.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Orchestrate Coordinate substantial work across focused subagents while remaining available to the user and retaining responsibility for the integrated result. ## When to Use - Use when a task has multiple independent research, review, or implementation lanes. - Use when parallel work will materially reduce elapsed time or improve coverage. - Use when a coordinator must synthesize several bounded outputs into one verified result. Keep trivial tasks with the coordinator. ## Workflow 1. Decompose the task into distinct, bounded assignments with explicit outputs. 2. Run narrow, read-only scouts in parallel with low reasoning effort and no inherited conversation when the runtime supports those controls. Give each scout all scoped context and evidence required to complete its assignment. 3. Use medium reasoning effort for routine implementation and high reasoning effort for difficult work. 4. Give each subagent distinct ownership. Prevent overlapping assignments, and instruct leaf workers not to delegate. 5. Integrate the outputs, resolve conflicts, and verify the combined result. 6. Keep approvals and externally consequential decisions with the user. ## Examples - For a repository-wid

What does the orchestrate skill do?
Coordinate focused subagents on substantial work, keep their ownership non-overlapping, and integrate verified results. Use for large-scope Codex tasks; keep trivial work with the coordinator.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill orchestrate --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
