+
8
+ ## What is C-Breakout?
9
+
10
+ C-Breakout is an advanced orchestration system for Claude Code that breaks down complex projects into specialized agents, each with minimal context overhead. Instead of spawning full-context agents (19K tokens each), it uses an intelligent orchestrator to assign tasks to specialized agent types (8-12K tokens each).
11
+
12
+ ### Key Features
13
+
14
+ - **🎯 Intelligent Orchestration**: Analyzes projects and creates optimal execution plans
15
+ - **πŸ’° 43-50% Cost Reduction**: Specialized agents use fewer tokens
16
+ - **πŸš€ Parallel Execution**: Wave-based execution respects dependencies
17
+ - **πŸ”’ Better Security**: Agents only get tools they need (principle of least privilege)
18
+ - **πŸ“Š Progress Monitoring**: Real-time tracking of agent execution
19
+ - **πŸ”„ Automatic Retry**: Handles failures with configurable retry logic
20
+
21
+ ## Installation
22
+
23
+ ```bash
24
+ npm install -g @claude-code/c-breakout
25
+ ```
26
+
27
+ The skill will be automatically installed to `~/.claude/commands/c-breakout.md`
28
+
29
+ ## Quick Start
30
+
31
+ ### In Claude Code
32
+
33
+ ```
34
+ /c-breakout orchestrate "Implement user authentication system"
35
+ ```
36
+
37
+ ### Natural Conversation
38
+
39
+ ```
40
+ Orchestrate implementing a REST API for products
41
+ ```
42
+
43
+ Claude will recognize your intent and invoke the orchestrator automatically.
44
+

+ ## How It Works

66
+ ### Agent Types
67
+
68
+ | Type | Tools | Use For | Overhead |
69
+ |------|-------|---------|----------|
70
+ | **PLANNER** | Read, Grep, WebSearch | Research, analysis | ~12K tokens |
71
+ | **DEV** | Read, Write, Edit, Bash | Implementation, testing | ~10K tokens |
72
+ | **DEPLOY** | Bash, Read | Deployment, operations | ~8K tokens |
73
+
74
+ ### Execution Example
75
+
76
+ ```bash
77
+ /c-breakout orchestrate "Implement user authentication"
78
+ ```
79
+
80
+ **What happens:**
81
+
82
+ 1. **Orchestrator Planning** (Sonnet agent)
83
+ - Reads your project structure
84
+ - Creates work breakdown: research β†’ implement β†’ test β†’ deploy
85
+ - Classifies 12 tasks across 3 agent types
86
+ - Generates specialized prompts
87
+
88
+ 2. **Execution Waves** (12 Haiku agents)
89
+ - Wave 1: 3 PLANNER agents research architecture (parallel)
90
+ - Wave 2: 1 DEV agent creates user model
91
+ - Wave 3: 4 DEV agents implement endpoints (parallel)
92
+ - Wave 4: 2 DEV agents write tests (parallel)
93
+ - Wave 5: 2 DEPLOY agents handle migrations & configs (parallel)
94
+
95
+ 3. **Results Aggregation**
96
+ - Collects all outputs
97
+ - Calculates total cost
98
+ - Generates comprehensive report
99
+
100
+ **Result:** Complete auth system implemented in ~51 seconds for $0.48 (vs $1.10 without orchestration)
101
+
102
+ ## Commands
103
+
104
+ ### In Claude Code
105
+
106
+ ```bash
107
+ /c-breakout orchestrate <goal> # Orchestrate project with specialized agents
108
+ /c-breakout distribute <task> # Break down task into sub-tasks
109
+ /c-breakout summarize <pattern> # Summarize files in parallel
110
+ /c-breakout tasks # Distribute todo list tasks
111
+ /c-breakout status [run-id] # Check execution status
112
+ /c-breakout results [run-id] # Get results from completed run
113
+ /c-breakout history # Show run history
114
+ /c-breakout cancel [run-id] # Cancel running agents
115
+ ```
116
+
117
+ ### CLI Tool
118
+
119
+ After installation, you also get a CLI tool for managing runs:
120
+
121
+ ```bash
122
+ c-breakout status # Show latest run status
123
+ c-breakout results # Show latest results
124
+ c-breakout history # Show all runs
125
+ c-breakout clean # Clean up run directories
126
+ ```
127
+
128
+ ## Cost Comparison
129
+
130
+ ### 100-Task Project
131
+
132
+ | Method | Token Overhead | Cost (Haiku) | Savings |
133
+ |--------|----------------|--------------|---------|
134
+ | No orchestrator | 1,900,000 | $1.52 | Baseline |
135
+ | **With orchestrator** | **1,074,000** | **$0.86** | **43.5%** |
136
+
137
+ ### Why It's Cheaper
138
+
139
+ - **Full context agents:** 19K tokens (includes all skills, tools)
140
+ - **Specialized agents:** 8-12K tokens (only tools they need)
141
+ - **Orchestrator overhead:** ~74K tokens (one-time cost)
142
+
143
+ ## Example Scenarios
144
+
145
+ ### Full Feature Implementation
146
+
147
+ ```bash
148
+ /c-breakout orchestrate "Add user profile management with CRUD operations"
149
+ ```
150
+
151
+ **Plan:**
152
+ - PLANNER: Research current user model, analyze API patterns
153
+ - DEV: Create profile model, implement CRUD endpoints, write tests
154
+ - DEPLOY: Run migrations
155
+
156
+ **Cost:** ~$0.60 (vs $1.20 without orchestrate)
157
+
158
+ ### Refactoring Project
159
+
160
+ ```bash
161
+ /c-breakout orchestrate "Refactor authentication to use JWT tokens"
162
+ ```
163
+
164
+ **Plan:**
165
+ - PLANNER: Analyze current auth, research JWT best practices
166
+ - DEV: Implement JWT service, update endpoints, update tests
167
+ - DEPLOY: Update configs, run migrations
168
+
169
+ ### Full Stack Feature
170
+
171
+ ```bash
172
+ /c-breakout orchestrate "Add real-time notifications with WebSocket"
173
+ ```
174
+
175
+ **Plan:**
176
+ - PLANNER: Research WebSocket libraries, analyze architecture
177
+ - DEV: Implement WebSocket server, notification service, client handlers, tests
178
+ - DEPLOY: Update server configs, deploy with new dependencies
179
+
180
+ ## Configuration
181
+
182
+ Edit `~/.claude/commands/c-breakout.md` to customize:
183
+
184
+ ```json
185
+ {
186
+ "max_concurrent": 100,
187
+ "orchestrate": {
188
+ "orchestrator_model": "sonnet",
189
+ "agent_model": "haiku",
190
+ "agent_types": {
191
+ "planner": {
192
+ "tools": ["Read", "Grep", "Glob", "WebSearch"]
193
+ },
194
+ "dev": {
195
+ "tools": ["Read", "Write", "Edit", "Bash", "Grep", "Glob"]
196
+ },
197
+ "deploy": {
198
+ "tools": ["Bash", "Read"]
199
+ }
200
+ }
201
+ }
202
+ }
203
+ ```
204
+
205
+ ## When to Use Orchestrate Mode
206
+
207
+ βœ… **Use orchestrate for:**
208
+ - Projects with 10+ tasks
209
+ - Full features (planning β†’ development β†’ deployment)
210
+ - Multi-file changes
211
+ - Projects requiring research + implementation
212
+
213
+ ❌ **Don't use orchestrate for:**
214
+ - Simple single tasks
215
+ - Pure calculation tasks
216
+ - Quick file summaries
217
+
218
+ ## Monitoring Progress
219
+
220
+ Check status anytime:
221
+
222
+ ```bash
223
+ /c-breakout status
224
+ ```
225
+
226
+ Output:
227
+ ```
228
+ === C-Breakout Status ===
229
+ Run ID: 20260131_152030
230
+ Mode: orchestrate
231
+
232
+ Wave 2/3 executing...
233
+ Progress: 15/25 agents (60%)
234
+
235
+ | Agent | Type | Status | Task |
236
+ |-------|---------|-------------|-------------------------|
237
+ | P001 | planner | completed βœ“ | Research auth patterns |
238
+ | D001 | dev | running | Implement JWT service |
239
+ | D002 | dev | pending | Write tests |
240
+ ```
241
+
242
+ ## Advanced Usage
243
+
244
+ ### Custom Agent Classification
245
+
246
+ Force specific agent types in your goal:
247
+
248
+ ```bash
249
+ /c-breakout orchestrate "Add caching. Use PLANNER agents to research Redis vs Memcached, then DEV agents to implement."
250
+ ```
251
+
252
+ ### Adjust Concurrency
253
+
254
+ For larger projects, edit the config:
255
+
256
+ ```json
257
+ {
258
+ "max_concurrent": 200
259
+ }
260
+ ```
261
+
262
+ ## Troubleshooting
263
+
264
+ ### "Orchestrator planning failed"
265
+
266
+ - Make project goal more specific
267
+ - Ensure project files are readable
268
+ - Fall back to standard distribute mode
269
+
270
+ ### "Agent needs blocked tool"
271
+
272
+ - Agent was misclassified and needs a tool it doesn't have
273
+ - Check error message for details
274
+ - Manually reclassify or use standard mode
275
+
276
+ ### "Dependency deadlock"
277
+
278
+ - Circular dependencies detected
279
+ - Review execution waves
280
+ - Manually reorder tasks if needed
