# Delegate coding work to separate agent CLIs with delegate-skills

How it works

What this skill actually does

Use this skill when an operator wants one orchestrating agent to send a bounded implementation task to a separate coding-agent CLI while keeping review and commit authority in the main workflow. delegate-skills provides setup and per-implementer delegation skills for Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode, Gemini-adjacent CLIs, and other terminal agents.

Invoke this instead of using the product normally when the task benefits from isolated implementation lanes, such as feature work, tests, UI changes, migrations, or mechanical refactors. The operator can run `$delegate-setup` to discover installed CLIs and approve fleet lanes, or use a direct skill such as `$codex-delegate` for a one-off task.

The scope boundary is the review-first delegation loop: write a self-contained brief, dispatch through the relay, wait for a structured result, review touched files and diff, run gates, then land the commit manually. It is not a generic agent platform, gateway, or subprocess launcher listing, and the relay explicitly does not commit.

Source-backed install path from the upstream README: `npx skills add amElnagdy/delegate-skills`. Optional targeted installs include `npx skills add amElnagdy/delegate-skills –skill delegate-setup` and `npx skills add amElnagdy/delegate-skills –skill codex-delegate`.
