Use when about to run two or more subagents, workflow lanes, or delegated CLI executors on one goal. Gives each lane a role, a pinned model tier, a disjoint file scope, a bounded brief, and a capped return, and fixes the merge and verification step before launch. Not for research-domain routing that owns .research, .paper, Zotero, Obsidian, or NotebookLM workflows; use research-hub-multi-ai for those.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# agent-task-splitter (fan-out planner)

Plan a fan-out before launching it. This skill plans; the host launches the
lanes. The name stays `agent-task-splitter` so existing prompts and plans keep
working.

## Pick the mode

| Mode | Use when | Artifacts |
|---|---|---|
| Native (default) | All lanes run inside one host session: parallel or background subagents, workflow lanes, one-shot CLI delegates, with the user present | Lane table in the conversation and one brief per lane. No `.coord/` plan, packets, or checkpoint. |
| Harness | A round spans sessions or tools, an unattended loop runs, work must resume after an interruption, a signed human gate is needed, or `AGENT_COLLAB_POLICY` is configured | `.coord/plan.yml` (schema v2) and `.ai/task_<NNN>_<slug>.md` packets; see [references/harness-plan.md](references/harness-plan.md) |

A configured policy always selects harness mode, and an unreadable configured
policy fails closed. Native mode follows the host's own limits and
permissions and adds no numeric limits of its own. Host mechanics are in
[native lanes](../../docs/native-lanes.md).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add wenyuchiou/agent-collab-skills/agent-task-splitter@sha256:c5a4fc843974561c

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261030.e0634b7, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
