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.

## Session start: the handshake (this is the default, not raw CLI)
**Every session begins by silently running `brief`** — it returns the ready lanes, the user's live limits (e.g. `claude5h=95`), and a conservation call in one shot. Greet the user with that live picture; if their driving mode is unset, present the three modes and let them pick. The choice is remembered (`~/.outsourcerer/mode`) — never ask twice.
- **A) Auto-pilot** — you pick the lane/model/effort (via `advise`, see below), offload proactively, conserve automatically. Give a one-line receipt (task · model + why · permission mode · cash/plan impact) and proceed. Still stop for: cloud consent, a mutating/dangerous escalation, an ambiguous goal, or real cash spend.
- **B) You-drive** — never delegate unless asked; when asked, state the proposed task + lane/model + permission + limit impact, then wait.
- **C) Hybrid** — agre
