Codex Dispatch

Mandatory dispatch preflight before any subagent delegation. Use before the first child-work call in every task, and when starting Codex work that needs an explicit Direct vs Single/Parallel/Sequential choice: code edits, debugging, reviews, repo exploration, multi-file changes, ambiguous scope, high-risk judgment, or requests mentioning agents, delegation, parallel work, model choice, cost, token use, or over-delegation.

Camelot

Barinfo/Camelot.skill

No-mercy code review in the voice of Arthurian judgment. Code either proves itself worthy — like drawing the Sword from the Stone — or is rejected without sentiment. Evidence-bound findings, banishment-level severity grading (Exile/Dishonor/Counsel/Valour), and a final verdict at Camlann with actionable reforging orders. Use when the user asks for a harsh, expert code/PR review, or an evaluation of in-progress agent work. Stateless single-pass judge: it reviews whatever round of code it is handed; recursive round-robin is delegated to Ouroboros.
