Show or change the delegation level 0-5 (0 - do everything yourself, subagents blocked by a hook; 3 - the default; 5 - orchestrator). Invoked as /delegation, /delegation 3, /delegation global 4, /delegation clear. Needs the delegation dial switched on in the hub home's config.json.

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

# Delegation level

Run bundled commands with the host's shell tool. Resolve the plugin root from `PLUGIN_ROOT`,
`CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT`, or this skill's installed path; use `<plugin-root>/bin/<tool>` when PATH is missing
or shadowed. Session identity comes from the current host; use `self` where supported.

The level sets how much work this session hands to subagents; which model and effort they run at is decided by
your subagent rules (`AGENT_HUB_EFFORT_RULES`). The plugin's hooks inject the level's policy into the context at
session start and whenever the level changes; at level 0 a trusted hook denies the host's subagent-spawn tools.

Parse the user's arguments and run exactly one command (the plugin's `bin/` is on PATH):

| Arguments | Command |
|---|---|
| none | `delegation show` |
| `N` (0-5) | `delegation set N` — this session only |
| `global N` | `delegation set N --global` — every session without its own level |
| `clear` | `delegation clear` — back to the global level |
| `try <type> [<model>]` | `delegation try <type> [<model>]` — what the rules would say about such a native subagent call (no model: the definition's or inherited) |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ilya-kozyrev/delamain/delegation@sha256:4fe03a33e2489ab5

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261002.04d4ecd, 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.
