Intercom Skill

Use this skill when you need to coordinate work across multiple atomic sessions running on the same machine. Intercom enables direct 1:1 messaging between sessions for delegation, context sharing, and collaborative workflows.

When you are supervising with the subagent skill, delegated child agents can escalate to you via contact_supervisor if the subagent runtime supplied child bridge metadata. This skill covers how to handle those orchestrator-side escalations.

When to Use

• Task delegation: Split work between a planner session and worker sessions
• Context handoffs: Send findings from a research session to an execution session
• Clarification loops: Worker asks questions, planner answers, work continues
• Multi-session workflows: Coordinate between specialized sessions (frontend/backend, research/implementation)
