SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? When multiple unrelated test failures or bugs appear across different files and subsystems, investigating them sequentially wastes time and bloats your working context. This Skill provides a structured pattern for delegating each independent problem to a focused agent that works in parallel with isolated context. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Independent Domain Identification: Group failures by root cause and decide with a decision flow whether parallel dispatch, sequential agents, or a single investigation fits. - Focused Agent Prompts: Construct self-contained agent tasks with specific scope, constraints, and expected output so agents stay on target. - Review and Integration Workflow: Verify agent summaries, check for conflicting edits, and run the full test suite after parallel fixes return. - Use Case: After a refactoring leaves 6 failures across 3 test files (abort logic, batch completion, race conditions), dispatch one agent per file, then integrate all three independent fixes with zero conflicts. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to dispatch one parallel agent per failing test file, giving each agent the error messages, a focused scope, and instructions to return a summary of root cause and fixes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I fix multiple failing tests in parallel with AI agents?

Group failures by independent problem domain, then dispatch one agent per domain with a focused prompt containing the error messages, scope, and constraints. Each agent works concurrently with isolated context, and you integrate their fixes afterward.

What makes a good prompt for a delegated debugging agent?

A good agent prompt is focused on one problem domain, self-contained with all needed context like test names and error output, explicit about constraints such as not changing unrelated code, and specific about the expected return summary.

When should I not dispatch parallel agents for debugging?

Avoid parallel dispatch when failures are related and fixing one might fix others, when understanding requires full system context, during exploratory debugging where the cause is unknown, or when agents would share state like editing the same files.

How do I verify fixes from multiple parallel agents do not conflict?

Read each agent's summary, check whether agents edited the same code, run the full test suite to confirm all fixes work together, and spot check results since agents can make systematic errors.

Why give each agent isolated context instead of session history?

Isolated context keeps each agent focused on its narrow scope and prevents distraction from unrelated history. It also preserves the coordinator's own context for integration and review work.
