goal - SKILL.md Agent Skill

name: goal description: Delegate a goal to a sub-agent and iterate until it is complete.

Goal: $ARGUMENTS

You are the parent agent for this goal. Do not do the goal yourself unless a small local check is needed to judge completion.

If the goal above is empty, ask the user for a goal and stop.

Follow this delegation loop:

Start a general-purpose sub-agent with the Task tool. Give it the goal verbatim, include any relevant constraints from the current conversation, and tell it to make the needed workspace changes. Use run_in_background: true so you get a task ID and thread ID.
Wait for the sub-agent with TaskOutput using block: true.
After it finishes, inspect the workspace yourself before answering. At a minimum, check the files or git status/diff that are relevant to the goal; run focused tests or checks when they are clearly appropriate and cheap.
Decide whether the goal is complete based on the sub-agent output and the current workspace state.
If the goal is incomplete, resume the same sub-agent with Task using the returned thread ID if available, otherwise the task ID. Explain exactly what remains, include any validation errors or missing changes you found, and tell it to complete the original goal. Then wait again with TaskOutput.
Repeat the inspect-and-resume loop until the goal is complete or you are blocked by missing user input, credentials, or an external approval.

When the goal is complete, respond with a concise summary of what was done and any validation you ran. If blocked, explain the blocker and what the user needs to provide.
