Delegation Skill

Dispatch implementation tasks to subagents with proper context, worktree isolation, and TDD requirements. This skill follows a three-step flow: Prepare, Dispatch, Monitor.

Triggers

Activate this skill when:

• User runs /exarchos:delegate command
• Implementation plan is ready with extractable tasks
• User wants to parallelize work across subagents
