What it does
Delegation Guide is an agent skill from OtoDock/oto-dock. Reference for the delegation-mcp tools — the delegate signature and surfaces, callbacks, monitoring with listsessions/peeksession, project mode with the board file and staged flow, sendfiles, attachresultfiles (a worker's deliverables), and reading other agents' sessions. Load before delegating work or running a multi-lane project.
Its SKILL.md is about 3.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Agent Workflows, covering MCP servers. The repository describes itself as: The agentic company OS. The brains of your company, built on Claude Code and Codex, working on your Anthropic and OpenAI subscriptions.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve MCP servers
Example prompts
- “s deliverables), and reading other agents”
- “/delegation-guide”
Workflow steps
2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Mint a short project_id slug (e.g. site-redesign) and pass it on every delegate call for the job. This groups the lanes under one project…
- Maintain the board file at projects//board.md in the workspace — the single source of truth a human can open at any time
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5308f5a. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
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.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Delegation Guide loads about 3.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 89 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,178 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.
Safety
Auto-check passed
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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,178 words (~3,763 tokens).
“The delegation card in your instructions carries the rules (when to delegate, surfaces, "a result is a report", one delegation stays lightweight). This guide is the reference behind them.”

Can I use Delegation Guide in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add OtoDock/oto-dock --skill delegation-guide -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/delegation-guide, .gemini/skills/delegation-guide, .github/skills/delegation-guide and .opencode/skills/delegation-guide in your project.
What does Delegation Guide need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Delegation Guide is instructions for the agent only.
