Orca Orchestration
This file is a discovery stub, not the usage guide. The full, version-matched Orca
orchestration reference is served by the orca binary itself — kept out of this file on
purpose so it can never drift from the binary that will actually run your commands.
Engage Orca orchestration whenever you need structured multi-agent coordination: threaded
messages, blocking ask/reply flows, task dispatch, worker_done/escalation waits, task DAGs,
decision gates, coordinator loops, or decomposing work across agents. Engage it as well
when you are a dispatched worker sending heartbeats, ask questions, or worker_done. Use
the orca-cli skill instead for full ownership handoffs ("hand off", "handoff", "handover",
"give this to another agent", "another worktree") when the user did not ask to supervise,
monitor, wait for results, or coordinate a DAG — and for ordinary terminal control, shell
commands, worktree management, and the built-in browser. Coordination requires real Orca
runtime state; never substitute a non-Orca subagent tool.
