TLDR: Reuse one orchestrator workflow for independent agents, draft PRs, and bounded watches in Codex and Claude Code.

Summary

Adds a shared skill for delegation, review, CI/comments, readiness, and authorized merging. PEW shows all retained agents and PRs. It includes separate PR links, operator-input flags, and last actions in latest-update order; displayed output uses local timestamps. STARTWATCH defaults to 48 hours; STOPWATCH fences new watch actions. A small control helper persists deadlines and run IDs; it does not poll or wake agents by itself.

Repro

1. Load orchestrate-sdlc for a multi-issue campaign.
2. Request PEW, STARTWATCH 48h, and STOPWATCH; follow the common lifecycle and verified runtime protocol instead of reconstructing it for each agent.

Test Plan

• Five Bazel behavior tests and the skill/CLI build pass.
• Isolated built-CLI checks and an independent 33-operation scenario run pass; no live watcher or native wake integration was exercised.
• Canonical/Claude-alias skill validation, local links, Gazelle, lint, and BUILD synchronization pass.

Add instructions for PEW output:

• Prefer one row per each subagent, even if they do not have linked PRs yet.
• Output PR number and also PR link as a separate column
• First column Issue / work has a clear indication of the worker state - working, dormant, etc. Define colors for each of them.
• Merged PRs should have the whole row crossed-out font. Agents implementing them could be archived after one week and removed from the ledger.
• The list of issues should appear in a reversed order of updates to that particular issue. The example of update is code change, PR status change or new comments, new instructions sent to subagent, etc.
• Subagent name and issue/work should be consolidated as first field
• Define output for PR State / CI field and define colors for different PR states
• Agent state / next step field should have an indication if operator input is required. Operator input is required when a decision is awaited on a PR comment or in the agent response, or if PR comments are unresolved, or if draft version of the PR needs operator's review. It should also indicate the last action on the work item in this row.

All outputs (not just PEW) should be instructed to have a date and time in local time with short timezone abbreviation, when displayed.
