How to use the coding agents installed on this machine (claude, codex, droid, grok, hermes, opencode, copilot, pi) as plain sub-agents in orchestrated workflows: one headless invocation, one prompt in, one result out. Deliberately ignores each CLI's own orchestration features (droid --mission, codex multi_agent, hermes delegation/moa/kanban, grok --agents, opencode personas). The orchestrator is whatever session is running the skill; the CLIs are interchangeable workers. Use when the user asks "which agent should run this", "fan out workers", "run X headless", or when a lifeos skill (overnight, timeboxed-iterating, workgraph, gauntlet, bughunt, dark-factory) needs to launch an agent CLI.
