Task Orchestration

Name: task-orchestration
Author: nickcrew

Overview

Coordinate complex tasks with structured orchestration: discover requirements, spawn parallel agents, and execute multi-step workflows with validation.

When to Use

Multi-step tasks requiring coordination or delegation
Parallelizable workstreams
Complex requirements discovery

Avoid when:

The task is simple or single-file

Quick Reference

Task	Load reference
Orchestrated brainstorming	`skills/task-orchestration/references/brainstorm.md`
Spawn orchestration	`skills/task-orchestration/references/spawn.md`
Task orchestration	`skills/task-orchestration/references/task.md`
Process Patterns	`skills/task-orchestration/references/process-patterns.md`
Task Decomposition	`skills/task-orchestration/references/task-decomposition.md`

Workflow

Choose the orchestration mode (brainstorm, spawn, task).
Load the matching reference.
Execute with delegation and progress tracking.
Validate outputs and consolidate results.

Output

Orchestration summary
Task progress and next steps

Common Mistakes

Spawning without clear task boundaries
Skipping validation gates
