Agent Domain Routing (theonekit-designer)

Game-design rows for core rules/orchestration-rules.md § “Task-Type → Agent Routing”. Role keys: .claude/t1k-routing-designer.json. Skills: t1k-designer-base-skill-domain-routing.

Moved out of .claude/rules/agent-domain-routing-designer.md on port-2026-08-31 (context-budget lever — this table is consulted only after the agent already decided to spawn a sub-agent for game-design work). Designer sits at registry priority 50 (below engine kits at 90); keep reading the per-row note below. /t1k:find-skill also resolves this table by keyword.

Designer’s three agents map onto generic core role names (implementer, reviewer, optimizer, debugger, brainstormer) that read as engineering roles but here mean game-design work. Read the rows below by the task, not the role name.

Notes

p50 shadowing: t1k-routing-designer.json is priority 50, below engine kits’ 90 — so a session in a Unity/designer project will NOT get designer’s implementer even though designer maps it; the engine kit’s role override wins. Rely on this table for the design task rows it names, and read the per-row agent list — do not assume any generic core role (implementer, reviewer, …) resolves to a designer agent when an engine kit is installed alongside.
Anti-pattern: spawning t1k-code-reviewer for design-doc review. Design artifacts get design-perspective agents per .claude/rules/agent-domain-routing-designer.md.
Peer boundary: production tracking (plans, tasks, docs coordination) belongs to core’s t1k-project-manager; only milestone oversight / sprint design / balance goes to t1k-designer-game-producer.
