* docs(skill): restructure around a delegation playbook SKILL.md becomes a slim routing layer: a what-are-you-here-to-do section up front, the pane/run/wait primitives, and four delegation rules that survive even when the reference is skipped. Everything specific to running another agent moves to references/delegation.md, which adds what the old text never had: per-worker git worktree isolation, a delivery contract collected through git instead of screen scraping, a launch-verification checklist, a babysit loop, and a fan-out harvest with short per-worker timeouts so one stuck worker cannot stall the round. Also replaces the last remaining 'claude -p' example (the fan-out one #699 missed) and keeps every snippet valid under both bash 3.2 and zsh. * docs(skill): un-deadlock the fan-out harvest loop Fresh read of SKILL.md and references/delegation.md. Every internal anchor resolves and the two files agree on the primitives; three things did not hold up: - The harvest loop passed `--changed`, which cannot work there. `wait` compares against the state standing when *that* wait began, so a worker that reached `done` while you were waiting on a different one is already in `done` when its own turn in the round comes up — refused, every round, forever. Each pane runs one turn, so a standing `done` is this turn's; drop the flag and note the one thing it was buying (a just-answered `waiting` worker needs to leave that state before it is requeued). - The same loop folded `wait`'s exit 1 into its 124 branch, so a pane that died got requeued instead of reported — and requeued at full speed, since a dead pane answers immediately. Split the three codes. - SKILL.md described `--plain` unwrapping "a line the shell wrapped at column 249" while two other passages state a pane is 120 columns. Say "at the pane's width", as references/commands.md already does. No typos or grammar slips found. Every bash block in both files parses under bash 3.2 and zsh. * docs(skill): two failure modes from the playbook's first live run Dogfooded the delegation playbook end to end (worker reviewing this very file). Two failures it hit that the text did not cover: - A turn aborted by an API error emits no turn boundary, so the status stands at 'working' forever and wait sleeps through it. Diagnose from the screen's error line; recover by telling the still-alive interactive session to continue. - A short capture tail cuts off the spinner line and shows only the TUI's always-present input box, which reads as idle. Tail 15+ lines and read for the spinner; 'bottom looks like a prompt' is only evidence on a shell pane.

Why
- Performance — ~2× the throughput of Alacritty, Ghostty, or Kitty (benchmarks)
- Persistent sessions — quit or reboot; your shells and supported agent sessions keep running, no tmux
- Editor-grade input — suggestions, completion, highlighting, history search
- Remote development — files, repos, panes, and git data stay on the remote machine
- Native SSH — profiles, SFTP, port forwarding, and jump hosts
- Agent-aware — Claude Code, Codex & co.: status, notifications, git context
- CLI + Skills — agents create panes, run commands, and inspect output
