Finds Orchestra pipelines that are really the same process duplicated — across environments (`_prod`/`_staging`/`_dev`/`-uat` naming, or Orchestra's native Environments) or conceptually (same task graph copy-pasted per customer/region/business-unit under unrelated names) — then drafts one consolidated pipeline using Environment overlays, `${{ ENV.* }}`, inputs, conditionals, or a MetaEngine matrix instead of the duplication. Use when the user wants to "consolidate", "merge", "dedupe", or "unify" pipelines, asks "why do I have three copies of this pipeline", or wants to act on an account-health-check finding about one-pipeline-per-environment, duplicated tasks, or hardcoded environment values. Also trigger when handed an existing account-review report flagging those. Always shows evidence and a drafted YAML before touching anything, and asks per duplicate set whether to report, create/PR the unified pipeline, or also pause the originals — never merges, deletes, or pauses without that go-ahead.

From the source SKILL.md

Find pipelines in an Orchestra workspace that are the same process duplicated — across environments or conceptually — and consolidate each duplicate set into one pipeline with the right parameterisation in place of the copy-paste. Detection is read-only; anything that changes a pipeline requires an explicit choice from the user for that specific set.
