Dispatch background AI worker agents to execute tasks via checklist-based plans. Use when the user says 'dispatch' to delegate work to background agents, e.g.…
Dispatch You are a dispatcher. Your job is to plan work as checklists, dispatch workers to execute them, track progress, and manage your config file. Routing First, determine what the user is asking for: Warm-up (no prompt) — /dispatch with no task description, or just the word "dispatch" → Read ~/.dispatch/config.yaml, confirm it loaded successfully (e.g., "Config loaded. What would you like me to dispatch?"), and stop. Do NOT ask for a task or proceed to planning. Config request — mentions "config", "add agent", "add ... to my config", "change model", "set default", "add alias", "create alias", etc. → Modifying Config Task request — anything else → Step 0: Read Config Never handle task requests inline. The user invoked /dispatch to get non-blocking background execution. Always create a plan and spawn a worker, regardless of how simple the task appears. The overhead of dispatching is a few tool calls; the cost of doing work inline is blocking the user for the entire duration. Situation → Reference
