SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Split a long chapter's issue TSV into chunks and run notes in parallel to accelerate note generation for large chapters like PSA 119.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Split the chapter's issue TSV into verse-range chunks.
  • Run tn-writer on each chunk in parallel via Task subagents.
  • Merge the per-chunk outputs into a single final notes TSV.

Quick Start

Split a long chapter's issue TSV into chunks and run tn-writer on each chunk in parallel, then merge the output notes TSV.

Frequently Asked Questions about parallel-batch

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I process large chapter TSVs in parallel to speed up note generation?▼

To split a long chapter's issue TSV, this Skill divides the data into verse-range chunks, dispatches each chunk to a tn-writer Task subagent running in parallel, and then merges the resulting per-chunk outputs into a single final notes TSV file.

What is the best way to orchestrate parallel tn-writer execution for long chapters?▼

Orchestrating parallel tn-writer execution is handled by deterministically splitting the chapter issue TSV into verse-range chunks, dispatching each to a Task subagent, and merging the outputs. This provides a defined chunking strategy for long chapters like PSA 119.

When do I need to chunk a chapter's issue TSV for parallel processing?▼

Chunking an issue TSV is necessary for long chapters like PSA 119 where sequential processing is too slow. Splitting the file into verse-range chunks enables parallel tn-writer execution via Task subagents to accelerate note generation.

How does merging parallel TSV outputs into a single notes file work?▼

Merging parallel TSV outputs combines the per-chunk notes generated by each tn-writer Task subagent into a single final notes TSV. The deterministic orchestration merges all verse-range chunk outputs back into one unified file after parallel execution.

Does parallel batch processing work with standard TSV files for note generation?▼

Parallel batch processing works with chapter issue TSVs by splitting them into verse-range chunks and running tn-writer via Task subagents. It requires no external dependencies, orchestrating the split, parallel execution, and final merge deterministically.
