SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Coordinating work across multiple Squad instances requires discovery, safe handoffs, and shared context to prevent duplication and misalignment.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Discovery and orchestration: Squads publish manifests and use well-known paths to discover other squads.
  • Context sharing and handoffs: Share only what is needed to delegate work across repos while protecting sensitive data.
  • Formal delegation workflow: Use a standard process to assign work to the appropriate squad and track progress.
  • Cross-squad coordination scenarios: Applies when work spans platform, frontend, and data squads or requires infrastructure support.

Quick Start

Discover known squads via manifests, delegate the task to the appropriate squad, and monitor the handoff until completion.

FAQPage Schema
How do I coordinate cross-squad work across multiple repositories?

Cross-squad work is coordinated using a manifest-based discovery protocol where squads publish manifests at well-known paths, enabling other squads to find capabilities, delegate tasks, and track handoffs securely across multiple repositories.

How does manifest-based squad discovery work for multi-repo programs?

Manifest-based discovery works by having squads publish manifests to well-known repository paths, enabling other squads to locate available capabilities, orchestrate cross-repo tasks, and establish shared context without duplicating effort.

What is the best way to delegate tasks across platform, frontend, data, and ops squads?

The best way to delegate tasks across platform, frontend, data, and ops squads is through a formal delegation workflow that assigns work to the appropriate squad based on published manifests and monitors the secure handoff until task completion.

Can I share context across repositories without leaking credentials or sensitive information?

Yes, secure handoff patterns enable sharing only the necessary context to delegate work across repos while actively preventing the leakage of credentials or sensitive information during cross-squad task delegation and tracking.

When do I need a formal delegation workflow for cross-squad coordination?

A formal delegation workflow is needed when cross-squad work spans multiple repositories and squads, requiring structured task assignment, secure context sharing, and progress tracking to prevent misalignment between platform, frontend, data, and ops teams.
