team-agent-orchestration

Coordinate multiple AI agents with assigned owners, clear work boundaries, and a Kanban board that tracks progress. Organize separate branches or worktrees, collect test and handoff evidence, and define checks that must pass before combining their work.

OriginalShow the original description

Run team-based orchestration for agent squads: work items with owners and scope, agent Kanban state, branch isolation, control pane visibility, and merge gates. Use when coordinating multiple agents in parallel across branches or worktrees — multi-agent fan-out, agent Kanban, squad coordination, or merging agent output into one product.

AI rating90/ 100See how to install

Good for

  • Assign parallel tasks to multiple AI agents
  • Track progress and blockers across sessions
  • Separate editing work across branches or worktrees
  • Review and combine agent outputs

Overview

What it does

Organizes work for multiple AI agents into items with clear owners, boundaries, and completion criteria. A Kanban board shares states such as ready, running, review, blocked, and merged. Branches or worktrees—separate working directories—help separate editing scopes. Tests, diff reviews, and risk checks serve as conditions for integration, with handoff notes and verification results retained alongside the work.

When it helps

Use it when several agents develop in parallel, or when ownership and progress have become unclear. It also helps organize work when results are scattered across chats, edits overlap in the same files, or it is difficult to judge whether agent output is ready to integrate.

Example requests

  • “Split the parallel development work and define owners and integration criteria.”
  • “Organize each agent’s progress, blockers, and next actions on a Kanban board.”
  • “Check the results through tests and diff review, then list the work awaiting integration.”

Notes

Each item needs an owner and acceptance criteria. If agents edit the same files in parallel, assign an integrator. One person or agent resolves conflicts during integration. Execution options include a single agent, tmux, worktrees, and external management apps; no particular option is mandatory.

Objective evaluation

AI rated this skill on four points using only the contents of its SKILL.md. Stars and popularity are not taken into account.

Clear instructionsIs it clear when to use it and what it does?
AGoodIt explicitly manages parallel agent work through ownership, workflow states, and integration conditions.

AGoodIt provides seven workflow steps, board transition criteria, a JSON card example, and required final outputs.
SafetyAre sending data, deleting files, and running commands disclosed?

Team Agent Orchestration

Use this skill when agents are being managed like a team rather than a single assistant. The purpose is to make team-based orchestration reliable: clear work items, explicit ownership, agent Kanban state, branch isolation, control pane visibility, and merge gates.

When To Activate

  • The task spans multiple agents, tools, harnesses, branches, or worktrees.
  • The user mentions team orchestration, agent Kanban, squad, conductor, control pane, manager, desktop app, Zellij, tmux, Hermes, Devin, Codex, Claude Code, or multi-agent work.
  • A project needs shared workflow state across people and agents.
  • Existing agent fan-out is producing output but not mergeable product.

Operating Model

Treat every agent as a teammate with a narrow contract:

  • Owner: the person or agent accountable for the work item.
  • Scope: files, branch, tool surface, and forbidden areas.
  • State: backlog, ready, running, review, blocked, merged, or archived.
  • Evidence: tests, screenshots, logs, review notes, or eval reports.
  • Merge gate: the exact condition that allows integration.

Agent Kanban

Use agent Kanban when work must be visible across sessions.

Each card should fit this schema:

{
  "id": "agent-card-001",
  "title": "Build dynamic workflow skill",
  "owner": "codex",
  "state": "running",
  "branch": "product/dynamic-workflow-team-orchestration",
  "worktree": ".",
  "acceptance": [
    "Skill exists",
    "Tests cover required concepts",
    "Content artifact contains video and article angles"
  ],
  "merge_gate": "lint, focused tests, and catalog check pass",
  "handoff": "path/to/handoff.md"
}

Team-Based Orchestration Flow

  1. Shape the board: convert fuzzy ambition into work items with owners and merge gates.
  2. Pick execution mode: single-agent, dynamic workflow mode, dmux/tmux, worktree fan-out, or external desktop orchestrator.
  3. Assign boundaries: one owner per card, clear file scope, and no overlapping writes without an integrator.
  4. Run agents: each agent writes evidence and handoff notes, not just code.
  5. Review in sequence: tests first, then diff review, then security/risk checks, then content/product polish.
  6. Merge deliberately: one integrator resolves conflicts and updates the control pane or status artifact.
  7. Extract reusable skill: if the card pattern repeats, promote it into skills/.

Control Pane Requirements

A useful control pane for team orchestration should show:

  • Active work items and their agent Kanban state.
  • Owner, harness, branch, worktree, and last heartbeat.
  • Links to handoff artifacts, tests, screenshots, and PRs.
  • Blockers grouped by owner and unblock action.
  • Merge readiness by gate, not vibes.
  • Reusable workflow candidates that should become shared skills.

Do not add more automation until the operator can answer: who owns this, what changed, what gate failed, and what can safely merge?

Dynamic Workflow Compatibility

When a card needs dynamic workflow mode:

  • Put the task-local harness under the card owner.
  • Store inputs and outputs on the card.
  • Require an eval before moving from Running to Review.
  • Promote the harness to a shared skill only after repeat use.

Failure Modes To Watch

  • Agent soup: many agents running, no owner or merge gate.
  • Invisible work: useful output exists only in a chat transcript.
  • Board theater: a Kanban board exists but cards have no acceptance criteria.
  • Overlapping writes: parallel agents edit the same files without worktrees.
  • No product artifact: the process produces docs but no runnable or publishable surface.

Output Standard

Finish each orchestration pass with:

  • Board/card changes.
  • Merged or pending branches.
  • Tests and eval evidence.
  • Blockers with owner and next action.
  • New shared skill candidates.
