Apply when deciding whether a user request should route through /agentic-dev-team:orchestrator or be answered directly. Defines the substantive vs trivial threshold and the bare-/orchestrator aliasing rule.

The plugin orchestrator is the entry point for **substantive engineering work**. It is overkill for trivial questions and lookups. This skill defines the threshold and the alias rules.
The plugin orchestrator is the entry point for substantive engineering work. It is overkill for trivial questions and lookups. This skill defines the threshold and the alias rules.
Handle these inline without invoking the orchestrator:
run X commands — run the tests, run the lint, run the dev server./agentic-dev-team:orchestrator)Invoke the orchestrator for anything that touches the 7-gate pipeline (see generic-gate-pipeline):
When in doubt, route through the orchestrator. The cost of going through the orchestrator on a borderline trivial task is small. The cost of skipping the orchestrator on a substantive task — and shipping un-tested, un-reviewed code — is large.
/orchestrator is a thin alias to /agentic-dev-team:orchestrator. There is no local orchestrator persona./orchestrator, do NOT interpret as freeform text, do NOT search the repo for it as a string — invoke the plugin orchestrator skill immediately with whatever arguments follow.| User input | Route |
|---|---|
| "What does dotnet-vendor-adapters say about HMAC?" | Direct answer (lookup) |
| "Where is the BFF proxy?" | Direct answer (lookup) |
| "Add a daily spending limit per card" | Orchestrator (feature) |
| "Fix the off-by-one in the SCA approval window" | Orchestrator (bug fix) |
"Rename IdentityNumber to NationalId everywhere" | Orchestrator (multi-file refactor with behavioural impact) |
| "What tests exist for the issuance flow?" | Direct answer (inventory) |
"Run dotnet test" | Direct answer (command) |
| "Add a /toolbox command that lists local skills" | Orchestrator (new feature) |
| "Update the description in nextjs-sentry/SKILL.md to mention the new project name" | Direct answer (cosmetic edit) |
| "Refactor the gate-pipeline skill to add a Gate 0 for triage" | Orchestrator (substantive — affects the process) |
/orchestrator as a string to search for. It's a deterministic alias — invoke immediately.Creates, edits, and optimizes skills for Claude Code, including drafting, evaluating with test prompts, iterating on performance, and improving skill descriptions for better triggering accuracy.
