Herdr Orchestrate

A work unit is the atom of delegation: one worktree, one Herdr tab, one or two agents, one PR. A unit holds one issue by default, or several issues that belong together and ship as a single PR. This skill finds free issues, splits them into units, sets each unit up, kicks it off, scope-checks its diff before it ships, and merges and dismantles what passes; the user can read and interject per tab at any time.

For herdr CLI mechanics — command syntax, IDs, JSON output — follow the herdr skill installed alongside this one: print the relevant command group (herdr tab, herdr agent, herdr pane) instead of guessing flags, and read identifiers from command responses. The CLI auto-updates and can change mid-run — when a command errors with an unknown subcommand or flag, re-read the herdr skill and the CLI's own help instead of retrying remembered syntax.
