name: orchestrator description: Multi-Agent Orchestration skill for coordinating AI agents across channels, managing sessions, distributing tasks, and leveraging distributed compute resources.

Orchestrator Skill

Purpose

Enable AI agents to act as Orchestrators - coordinating multiple AI agents across federated communication channels, managing sessions, distributing tasks, and aggregating results.

When to Use This Skill

Activate when you need to:

• Coordinate multiple AI agents for collaborative work
• Distribute tasks across parallel compute resources
• Manage multi-agent sessions with ID assignment
• Aggregate results from multiple sources
• Leverage free/low-cost AI compute (Gemini tabs, Jules CLI, etc.)

---

Quick Start

1. Start the Relay Server

Copypnpm relay:start

2. Launch Persistent Orchestrator

Copynode orchestrator-persistent.js Green  # Join Green channel

3. Session Control Commands

Copynode session-control.js status   # Check agent status
node session-control.js pause    # Pause all agents
node session-control.js resume   # Resume operations
node session-control.js end      # End session

---

Protocol: DACC-v1

Distributed Agent Communication & Coordination Protocol v1

Core Principles

1. Mandatory Signing - All agents MUST sign messages with [AGENT-XX]
2. ID Assignment - Orchestrator assigns unique IDs to agents
3. Structured Communication - Use formatted message templates
4. Session Logging - All conversations logged to markdown files

Message Signing Format

Copy[AGENT-XX] Your message content here

Acceptable alternatives:

• ID#: AGENT-XX message
• [GEMINI-3F-01] message (custom IDs)

Compute Resources

Available Sources (Prioritized by Cost)

Jules CLI Integration

Copy# Check Jules status
jules version
jules remote list --session

# Submit task
jules new "Implement feature X in packages/core"

# Parallel execution
jules new --parallel 4 "Add tests to all services"

# Pull completed work
jules remote pull --session 123456 --apply

Chrome Extension (Gemini Tabs)

1. Open multiple Gemini tabs
2. Press Ctrl+Shift+F to open Fuse Connect
3. Join the same channel in each tab
4. Each tab becomes an independent agent

---

Session Management

Starting a Session

1. Start Relay: pnpm relay:start
2. Launch Orchestrator: node orchestrator-persistent.js [channel]
3. Open Agent Tabs: Gemini tabs with Fuse extension
4. Join Channel: All agents join same channel

Session Commands

Session Logs

All sessions are logged to:

Copy.agent/session-logs/YYYY-MM-DDTHH-MM-SS_Channel_persistent.md

Log contents:

• Session metadata (ID, times, channel, protocol)
• Participant table (assigned IDs, message counts, violations)
• Full conversation log with timestamps
• Signing violation tracking

Self-Improvement Cycle

Daily Protocol

1. Review - Check overnight agent conversations in session logs
2. Identify - Find improvement candidates from agent analyses
3. Prioritize - Rank by impact and effort
4. Distribute - Assign tasks to available compute
5. Implement - Agents execute tasks
6. Verify - Check results and integrate
7. Document - Update documentation and logs

Continuous Improvement File

Track improvement status in:

Copy.agent/SELF_IMPROVEMENT_CYCLE.md

Integration with Other Skills

agent-discovery-protocol

Protocol specification for agent discovery and ID assignment.

jules-delegation

Delegate async coding tasks to Jules CLI.

chrome-devtools

Browser automation for testing and verification.

---

Troubleshooting

Agents Not Responding

1. Check relay is running: pnpm relay:start
2. Verify agents are on same channel
3. Check orchestrator logs for errors

Signing Violations

1. Orchestrator sends reminders automatically
2. Check session log for violation count
3. Send manual reminder: node session-control.js status

Connection Drops

1. Persistent orchestrator auto-reconnects in 5 seconds
2. Check relay server health: curl localhost:3001/health
3. Agents should auto-reconnect on tab refresh

---

Issue Resolution Protocol

Orchestrators MUST use available tools to resolve issues autonomously.

When Issues Arise

1. Identify the issue type
2. Select appropriate tool(s)
3. Execute the fix
4. Verify the resolution
5. Document what was done

Tool Selection Matrix

Auto-Resolution Prompts

When encountering an error, use this mental framework:

CopyI encountered: [ERROR DESCRIPTION]

Available tools that could help:
1. run_command - Execute shell commands to diagnose/fix
2. view_file - Inspect source code for issues
3. grep_search - Find related code or error patterns
4. replace_file_content - Fix code issues
5. write_to_file - Create missing files
6. browser_subagent - Interact with browser for testing
7. mcp_chrome-devtools_* - Direct browser control

I will:
1. Use [TOOL] to [ACTION]
2. Verify with [VERIFICATION METHOD]
3. Document the fix in session log

Common Issue Resolutions

Relay Not Running

Copy# Check status
curl localhost:3001/health

# If down, restart
pnpm relay:start

Agent Not Signing Messages

CopySend reminder via session-control.js status
or broadcast direct reminder to channel

Build Errors

Copy1. run_command: pnpm build 2>&1 | head -50
2. grep_search: Find the error file
3. view_file: Inspect the error location
4. replace_file_content: Fix the issue
5. run_command: Verify build passes

Jules Task Failed

Copy# Check session status
jules remote list --session

# Get details
jules remote pull --session [ID]

# Retry with improved prompt
jules new "Fixed version of: [original task]"

Escalation

If tools cannot resolve the issue:

1. Document the issue fully in session log
2. Create a clear summary for human review
3. Continue with other tasks that can proceed
