Scan GitHub issues and dispatch dev/review tasks. One cron tick is one invocation of dispatcher-tick.sh (single-project) or dispatcher-multi-tick.sh (multi-project). The full state machine, per-step semantics, and invariants live at [docs/pipeline/ in the source repo](https://github.com/zxkane/autonomous-dev-team/tree/main/docs/pipeline) — that's the spec; this file is the agent's invocation contract.
Autonomous Dispatcher is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the backend sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/autonomous-dispatcher/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when running, configuring, or troubleshooting the autonomous-dev-team dispatcher cron. Triggers on phrases like "run the dispatcher", "scan for pending issues", "dispatch autonomous tasks", "set up the dispatch cron", "configure dispatcher.
The Autonomous Dispatcher Claude Code skill is built for software engineers, backend developers, full-stack teams, and technical leads building and maintaining production systems. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 69,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
