# Send to Minion
Delegate the user's prompt to exactly one helper agent, called the minion, then supervise it until completion.
Treat explicit invocation of `$send-to-minion` or `/send-to-minion` as explicit user permission to spawn one subagent. Do not use this skill implicitly for ordinary requests that merely need research, depth, or careful execution.
## Contract
- Spawn exactly one subagent for the user's task.
- Do not spawn multiple agents, use CSV fan-out, or ask the minion to spawn nested agents.
- Keep the parent agent responsible for orchestration, verification, cleanup, and the final user response.
- Let the minion do the substantive delegated work.
- Preserve the user's original goal, constraints, language, and requested output format.
- Close the minion after completion, failure, or cancellation unless the runtime has already closed it.
- Do not silently downgrade to parent-only execution. If no subagent mechanism is available, say so.
## Runtime Selection
Use the native subagent mechanism for the current runtime. Do not mix runtimes in one invocation.
Prefer this order:
1. Codex multi-agent tools when `spawn_agent` is available.
2. Claude Code subagents when the `Agent` tool is available.
3. A legacy/adapted subagent runner such as `Task` only when neither of the above names is exposed but the runtime clearly documents it as the subagent tool.
If no subagent mechanism exists, follow Failure Handling.
## Codex Tool Setup
