Agent Orchestration

Use only for multi-agent supervision: coordinating dependencies, polling progress, unblocking waiting agents, relaying outputs, resolving conflicts, and verifying completion across agents. For one-off list/detail/send/start/kill work, use $agent-management or $agent-communication.

Use $agent-management for safe agent selection and lifecycle actions. Use $agent-communication for list/detail/send mechanics. Use $verify before accepting any agent's completion claim.

Rules

• Own the loop until assigned work is complete, blocked, or stopped.
• Run agent list --json before each pass; never assume names/statuses.
• Inspect waiting, idle, unknown, missing, or stale agents before acting.
• Send self-contained instructions and avoid duplicate follow-ups.
• Sequence agents that touch the same files; relay only relevant upstream output.
• Escalate only for repeated failures, unresolved conflicts, product/business decisions, or destructive/shared/production/security-sensitive actions.

Loop

If the goal or agent ownership is unclear, run one scan/detail pass. Ask the user once only if context is still insufficient.

1. Scan agents.
2. Assess agents needing attention with detail --tail 10.
3. Act: approve, clarify, correct, delegate, relay, verify, or escalate.
4. Report one brief status line.
5. Sleep 10-60s and repeat.

Completion

Finish when all assigned work is verified, blocked with a clear reason, or stopped by the user. Summarize per-agent outcomes, verification, unresolved issues, and next step.
