Agent Skills: Mode selection

For understanding what each mode does, which mode is best (most appropriate mode) for a given situation, and establishing a pattern for choosing when and how a mode delegates or passes operation to another mode. This skill provides `mode selection strategy`. Load with read_file on .kilocode/skills/mode-selection/SKILL.md (ignore the absolute path in the location tag).

For Planning & Orchestration

  • architect: All-in-one planning. Create phases and tasks -> QA -> User Approval -> Switch to dispatcher.
  • planner-a: Complex Planing Stage 1. Create phases -> Brainstorm -> Switch to planner-b.
  • planner-b: Complex Planning Stage 2. Create detailed tasks -> User Approval -> Switch to planner-c.
  • planner-c: Complex Planning Stage 3. QA -> Finalize -> User Approval -> Switch to dispatcher.
  • dispatcher: Manage execution. Coordinate implementation modes. Log. Fullfill the plan. For Implementation & Ops
  • coder-sr: Complex engineering, analysis, debugging, test creation, test execution, deep error investigation and diagnosis. Front-end and back-end.
  • coder-jr: Routine coding, test creation, test execution, strict instruction adherence. Front-end and back-end.
  • githubber: Git/GitHub operations.
  • tasky: Small, isolated work, including simple file operations.
  • ask: General inquiries.

Mode selection strategy

Evaluate the current task. If another mode is more appropriate, pass the task and payload to that mode. Payload Requirements:

  • Context: Include relevant bug/issue details. If a plan is active, include pertinent sections.
  • Instructions: Provide specific, actionable implementation steps.
  • Completion Trigger: Specify the exact command to return when the task is finished. Response Protocol:
  • Mandate a reply via the result parameter containing a concise summary of the outcome.

Prioritize budget-friendly modes in this order (Low to High):

  1. Low Budget (Renaming, moving files, simple text replacement, DB column copying)
    • Use tasky.
  2. Medium Budget (Refactoring, simple function creation, writing, or if Low fails)
    • Use coder-jr.
  3. High Budget (Complex modification, test creation and use, debugging, or if Medium fails)
    • Use coder-sr.
