mahler SKILL.md skillA

mahler from sinaida-space/mahler-the-orchestrator is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Multi-model orchestrator that maximizes output quality at the most efficient and reasonable token cost. Interrogates the user first, then uses the strongest model that actually spawns on this subscription (the chat's own model and effort) as planner to decompose tasks and route them to Opus (complex), Sonnet (standard), or Haiku (mechanical). Use when the user types /mahler, says "orchestrate", "pipeline", "use mahler", or when facing a complex multi-step project that would benefit from task…

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

# Mahler Orchestrator Skill

This skill transforms the current agent into an orchestrator that decomposes work and routes subtasks to the optimal Claude model.

## When to Use

- Complex projects with multiple components (web app + shaders + config)
- Creative projects that need both conceptual direction and technical execution
- Any task where token efficiency matters and work can be parallelized
- When the user explicitly invokes /mahler

## How It Works

The orchestrator follows a strict 5-phase protocol defined in the `/mahler` command. Read `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/commands/mahler.md` for the full protocol.

Quick reference:
1. **Phase 0 — Interrogate** — Six Hats multi-perspective questions via the `AskUserQuestion` dialogue tool (never plain text), prompt quality audit, GitHub setup (Blue Hat)
2. **Phase 1 — Direct** — spawn the Planner (the chat's own model and effort; fallback opus → sonnet-high → self) for vision + task decomposition into issue-ready specs
3. **Phase 2 — PRD Approval** — present the plan as a PRD in chat, hard stop until the user explicitly approves

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add sinaida-space/mahler-the-orchestrator/mahler@sha256:eaab6dbdc1ed1dc8

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261014.4f841a6, 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.
