What Outsourcerer does

Outsourcerer routes work to cheaper or different models while Claude orchestrates. It starts each session with live token limits, suggests a driving mode, and switches off heavy work when the Claude window is running hot.

Outsourcerer is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Outsourcerer comes from a repository tagged agent-skills, agentic-workflow, claude-code, codex and fable.

Documentation

README

Outsourcerer

Created by: Alex Greenshpun

Delegate the work Claude would hand its own subagents to a cheaper or different engine instead. Model-agnostic; default glm-5.2 (a free Devin lane). One entrypoint:

${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/outsourcerer/scripts/outsourcerer.sh <subcommand> [args]

Global flags (--provider, --cloud-ack) work anywhere, before or after the subcommand.

You drive this script in natural language; the user should never learn a flag. If you're explaining a command instead of running it, you're doing it wrong.

Session start: the handshake (this is the default, not raw CLI)

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.

Architecture Decision Records

Architecture Decision Records captures architectural decisions made during Claude Code sessions as structured ADRs, recording context, alternatives, and rationale. Use it when significant technical choices are made so future developers understand why the codebase is shaped the way it is.

AI-First Engineering

AI-First Engineering defines process, review, and architecture standards for teams where AI agents produce most implementation output. Use it to set ownership rules, quality gates, and evaluation criteria for agent-generated code.

Agentic OS

Agentic OS codifies a persistent multi-agent operating system architecture for Claude Code. Use it when building a multi-agent workflow with file-based memory, slash commands, and scheduled automation that survives session restarts.
