# Progress & streaming (meta-skill) Long audits with no output feel broken. This skill defines the contract for live updates. ## When to stream - Any command expected to take >10 seconds. - Any command that dispatches multiple subagents in parallel. - Any command that reads many files (>5). ## What to emit Stream short status lines to stdout as work progresses.
