Orca Orchestration — One Conductor, a Fleet of Sessions

This skill is the transport layer for work that does not fit in one session. A conductor talks to the owner and coordinates workers; each worker is a persistent agent session that owns a scope from start to finish, reports through a mailbox, and can be interrupted, questioned and resumed. The fleet is all workers of one Run.

It is optional by construction. Everything here has a path that works with no runtime at all: the same launch lines, pasted into terminals by a human, and the same tokens and artifacts the workflow skills already write. What the runtime buys is the step a human would otherwise do with their hands, plus a mailbox instead of screen-scraping.
