Multi-agent orchestration for complex tasks. Use when tasks require parallel work, multiple agents, or sophisticated coordination. Triggers include requests for features, reviews, refactoring, testing, documentation, or any work that benefits from decomposition into parallel subtasks. This skill defines how to orchestrate work using cc-mirror tasks for persistent dependency tracking and TodoWrite for real-time session visibility.

### Worker Mode (If you're a spawned agent)
If you were spawned by an orchestrator, your job is simple:
1. **Execute** the specific task in your prompt
