tomevault-io Skill Orchestrator
Route multi-step challenges to the right sequence of ClawFu skills — recommending which frameworks to combine, in what order, with explicit handoff outputs between steps.
When to Use This Skill
- Starting a new project and need the optimal skill sequence
- Complex multi-faceted challenges requiring multiple frameworks
- Team alignment on a structured approach across disciplines
- Overwhelmed by options — cut through skill paralysis
- Chaining skills where outputs from one feed into the next
Methodology Foundation
| Aspect | Details |
|---|---|
| Source | ClawFu Skills orchestration system |
| Core Principle | The right frameworks in the right order compound insights — sequencing matters more than any single skill |
| Sequencing Logic | Foundation → Analysis → Strategy → Creation → Validation → Execution |
What Claude Does vs What You Decide
| Claude Does | You Decide |
|---|---|
| Recommends skill sequences for a challenge | Which skills to skip or substitute |
| Defines input/output handoffs between steps | Final strategic direction at each step |
| Creates custom workflows from the skill library | Resource allocation and timeline |
| Identifies when to branch or loop back | Go/no-go decisions at validation gates |
Instructions
Step 1: Analyze the Challenge
Classify the challenge type and context:
| Factor | Options |
|---|---|
| Type | Launch · Validation · Content · Positioning · Decision · Sales · Video |
| Stage | Idea · Early · Growth · Mature |
| Resources | Solo · Small team · Large team |
| Timeline | Urgent · Normal · Flexible |
Step 2: Match to Workflow or Build Custom Sequence
Check pre-built workflows in WORKFLOWS.md. If none fits, build a custom sequence following this phase order:
| Phase | Skill Types | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Foundation | first-principles, JTBD, audience-research | Understand reality |
| 2. Analysis | competitive-analysis, inversion, pre-mortem | Identify challenges |
| 3. Strategy | positioning, category-design, personas | Make strategic choices |
| 4. Creation | offers, copy, content | Build the deliverable |
| 5. Validation | six-thinking-hats, pricing-validation | Stress test |
| 6. Execution | launch-formula, sales-pitch | Go to market |
Step 3: Execute Step by Step
For each step in the sequence:
- State the skill and purpose — why this step matters now
- List inputs from previous steps
- Execute the skill fully
- Capture outputs — document key deliverables
- Validate before proceeding — verify outputs are sufficient for the next step
Validation checkpoint: Before moving to the next skill, confirm the output includes the specific artifacts the next step needs. If not, iterate or add an intermediate step.
Step 4: Synthesize Cross-Skill Insights
After completing the sequence:
- Patterns — themes emerging across multiple frameworks
- Conflicts — where Skill A says X but Skill B says Y, and how to resolve
- Compounding insights — conclusions that only emerge from the combination
Examples
Example: AI Writing Tool Launch
Challenge: Launching an AI writing tool for marketers in a competitive market (Jasper, Copy.ai)
Recommended sequence (modified Product Launch):
1. competitive-analysis → Map landscape (Jasper, Copy.ai, ChatGPT)
2. first-principles → Challenge "AI writing tool" category assumptions
3. persona-generator → Define specific segments (not just "marketers")
4. category-design → Can you own a new category?
5. positioning → Differentiate using competitive gaps
6. grand-slam-offers → Create irresistible offer structure
7. pre-mortem → What could kill the launch?
8. launch-formula → Sequence the mechanics
Handoff example: Step 3 (personas) feeds into Step 5 (positioning) — persona pain points define which competitive alternatives matter most.

Skill Boundaries
What This Skill Does Well
- Sequencing skills for maximum compounding value
- Defining explicit handoffs between framework stages
- Adapting pre-built workflows to specific contexts
What This Skill Cannot Do
- Execute the individual skills (it routes to them)
- Make strategic decisions — it structures the decision process
- Guarantee outcomes — quality depends on inputs at each step
