orchestrating-skillsSkill-aware orchestration with context routing. An agent skill from oaustegard/claude-skills.
Orchestrating Skills is an agent skill from oaustegard/claude-skills. Skill-aware orchestration with context routing. Decomposes complex tasks into skill-typed subtasks, extracts targeted context subsets, executes subagents in parallel, and synthesizes results. Self-answers trivial lookups inline. No SDK dependency — uses raw HTTP via httpx. Use when tasks require multiple analytical perspectives, when context is large and subtasks only need portions, or when orchestrating-agents spawns too many redundant subagents.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 9 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `CHANGELOG.md`, `references/architecture.md` and `scripts/__init__.py`).
It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Task breakdown and Subagents. It works with Anthropic API. The repository describes itself as: My collection of Claude skills. The licence is MIT.
4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 90b0f1b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Ships 5 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
pythonpipFrom the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
ANTHROPIC_API_KEYFrom names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Orchestrating Skills loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 118 tokens; SKILL.md has 664 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
The full file from oaustegard/claude-skills at commit 90b0f1b, republished under its MIT licence (© oaustegard). 664 words, ~1,926 tokens.
.claude/skills/orchestrating-skills/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder). This skill also uses 7 other files; get the full folder from GitHub.This skill hand-rolls subagent orchestration via raw Anthropic API calls. A managed runtime now does the same job. Which one to use depends on your surface:
/deep-research, trigger a run with the workflow keyword, set
/effort ultracode, or spawn Task subagents — do that instead. The runtime gives
16-concurrent / 1000-agent ceilings, an approval gate, adversarial cross-review,
and in-session resume that this skill would otherwise reimplement badly. Dynamic
workflows shipped in research preview (Claude Code v2.1.154+, 2026).Discriminator: do you have a native subagent/Task tool or a workflow command? Yes → native. No → this skill. Never reimplement the runtime where it already exists.
Orchestrate complex multi-step tasks through a four-phase pipeline that eliminates redundant context processing and reflexive subagent spawning.

{
"subtasks": [
{
"task": "Compare architecture A vs B on scalability, cost, and complexity",
"skill": "analytical_comparison",
"context_pointers": {"sections": ["Architecture A", "Architecture B"]}
},

"skill": "self",
"answer": "$2.4M"
}
]
}Key behaviors:
"self" for direct lookups (numbers, names, dates) — no subagent spawnedNo LLM calls. Extracts context subsets using section headers or line ranges, pairs each with the assigned skill's system prompt, builds prompt dicts.
Delegated subtasks run in parallel via concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor.
Each subagent receives only its context slice and skill-specific instructions.
Collects all results (self-answered + subagent), synthesizes into a coherent response that reads as if a single expert wrote it.
Eight analytical skills plus one pipeline skill:

analytical_comparison | Compare items along dimensions with trade-offs |

Skill-aware orchestration with context routing. An agent skill from oaustegard/claude-skills. Orchestrating Skills is an agent skill from oaustegard/claude-skills. Skill-aware orchestration with context routing.
Orchestrating Skills fits situations like: tasks require multiple analytical perspectives; context is large and subtasks only need portions; orchestrating-agents spawns too many redundant subagents.
Run `npx skills add oaustegard/claude-skills --skill orchestrating-skills -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (orchestrating-skills in oaustegard/claude-skills) into .claude/skills/orchestrating-skills in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add oaustegard/claude-skills --skill orchestrating-skills -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (orchestrating-skills in oaustegard/claude-skills) into .agents/skills/orchestrating-skills in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add oaustegard/claude-skills --skill orchestrating-skills -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/orchestrating-skills, .gemini/skills/orchestrating-skills, .github/skills/orchestrating-skills and .opencode/skills/orchestrating-skills in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Orchestrating Skills needs Python for the scripts in its folder, the command-line tools its instructions call (python and pip) and credentials named ANTHROPIC_API_KEY. Our summary lists: Python 3; A credential in ANTHROPIC_API_KEY.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Its commands use pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
Orchestrating Skills is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.9k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 7.7k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 2k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Orchestrating Skills: OMA Multi-Agent Orchestrator (first-fluke/oh-my-agent, 1.3k stars), Cursor Orchestrate (cursor/plugins, 11k stars), Swarm Parallel Dispatch (langchain-ai/langchain-skills, 1.3k stars) and Launching Agent Teams (lexler/skill-factory, 239 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
