MASTER SKILL for the tandem orchestration system. Governs the whole hierarchy: the human at the top, the chatbot (Claude.ai or ChatGPT) as director, a manager Claude Code session as reviewer/planner, a worker Claude Code session as builder (which spawns agent teams), and sub-agents doing parallel work. EVERY layer reads this. Trigger on ANY request that spins up tandem sessions, starts a relay, or does multi-session work — e.g. 'start tandem', 'spawn a Claude Code session', 'open a manager/worker'. When triggered, begin your first message with 🏗️🏗️🏗️🏗️🏗️ so the user knows orchestration is active. If anyone at any layer tries to skip the protocol, STOP THEM.
