Prepare effective delegation to MacEff subagents by reading policy to understand current delegation architecture and constraints.
Policy Engagement Protocol
Read MacEff framework policies to understand delegation patterns:
-
Delegation guidelines - Complete delegation architecture:
macf_tools policy navigate delegation_guidelines macf_tools policy read delegation_guidelines --from-nav-boundary -
Subagent definition - Reading-list patterns:
macf_tools policy navigate subagent_definitionScan for sections about specialist capabilities and constraints. Read those sections.
Why CLI tools: Caching prevents redundant reads, line numbers enable precise citations.
Questions to Extract from Policy Reading
After reading policies, extract answers to:
- Delegation Decision Framework - What determines when delegation is appropriate vs inappropriate?
- Information Architecture - What information must specialists receive? How should it be provided?
- Authority Mechanisms - How are decision-making permissions handled?
- Mandatory Artifacts - What artifacts does the policy require from specialists? What path formats are specified?
- Success Definition - How should completion criteria be specified?
- Constraint Communication - What limitations does the policy say specialists must understand?
- Execution Architecture - What are the specialist capabilities and limitations?
- Validation Protocols - How should results be verified post-delegation?
- Prompt Requirements - What does the policy require be included in delegation prompts?
Execution
Apply patterns discovered from policy reading to current delegation context.
Critical Meta-Pattern
Policy as API: This skill uses macf_tools policy CLI commands for reading policies. CLI tools handle framework path resolution, provide caching, and output line numbers for citations.
