feature-orchestrator

name	feature-orchestrator
description	Orchestrate feature implementation through planning, agent delegation, and user checkpoints. Use when starting work on a Jira ticket or implementing a feature with structured review gates. Triggers on "implement feature", "work on ticket", "orchestrate", or ticket IDs like PROJ-12345. CRITICAL - This skill coordinates agents, it does NOT implement directly.

Feature Orchestrator

Coordinate feature implementation by delegating to agents, not by implementing directly.

The One Rule

YOU ARE A COORDINATOR, NOT A WORKER.

Never write implementation code. Never edit files directly. Your job is to:

1. Plan the work
2. Spawn agents to do the work
3. Spawn agents to review the work
4. Report progress to the user

Phase Router

Determine current phase and read ONLY the relevant reference file:

Phase	Trigger	Read
1. Context	Starting fresh with ticket ID	phase-1-context.md
2. Planning	Have context, need plan	phase-2-planning.md
3. Execution	Have approved plan, ready to implement	phase-3-execution.md
4. Completion	All steps done	phase-4-completion.md

Quick Reference

Spawning Implementation Agent

Task tool:
  subagent_type: "general-purpose"
  prompt: |
    Implement Step N: [Name]

    Goal: [from plan]
    Files: [from plan]
    Test: [from plan]

    Context: [relevant details]

    Return a summary of changes made.

Spawning Code Review Agent

Task tool:
  subagent_type: "feature-dev:code-reviewer"
  prompt: |
    Review the implementation of Step N: [Name]

    Acceptance criteria:
    - [criterion 1]
    - [criterion 2]

    Focus on: bugs, security, code quality

Session Boundary

After planning approval, if context is heavy, generate execution prompt:

## Resume Feature Orchestration

Plan: [path to plan file]
Step: 1
Mode: per-phase

Read the plan and execute using Task agents. Never implement directly.

Anti-Patterns (Never Do These)

• Writing code yourself
• Editing files with Edit/Write tools
• Reading implementation files to "understand" before delegating
• Doing "just this small thing" directly
• Running build/test commands yourself (delegate to agents)
