Orchestrate — Eric Provencher’s Multi-Agent Codex Skill

Authored or reviewed by Eric Provencher.

Eric Provencher’s concise Codex skill for delegating substantial work across focused agents while the coordinator remains available and integrates the result.

Skill brief

Is this the right skill?

Use it when

  • You have a substantial, large-scope task that should be coordinated across focused agents.
  • You need the coordinator to remain available while delegated work proceeds.
  • You want trivial work to stay with the coordinator instead of creating unnecessary agents.

What you get

  • Focused agent assignments with distinct ownership
  • Integrated result returned by the coordinator
  • User-controlled approval decisions

Orchestrate

Remain available to the user while delegating substantive work. Run narrow, read-only scouts in parallel with reasoning_effort: "low" and fork_turns: "none". Use reasoning_effort: "medium" for routine implementation and "high" for difficult work. Give each agent distinct ownership, prevent overlapping assignments, and instruct leaf workers not to delegate. Integrate the results and keep approvals with the user.
