Orchestrator

Use this skill when the user wants the current thread to act as a chief-of-staff thread: route work, keep context, supervise child threads, arbitrate conflicts, and avoid doing implementation locally.

Commands

• $orchestrator on: activate orchestration-only mode for this thread.
• $orchestrator off: return this thread to normal local execution.
• $orchestrator status: report mode, active child threads, checkout slots, branches, ports, data strategies, blockers, and push state.

Routing is automatic while orchestrator mode is on. Do not invent a manual routing command.

Mode And Claim Discipline

Worktrees alone are not orchestrator mode.
