SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill solves the bottleneck of sequential task execution by enabling concurrent, code-driven wave processing for software development tracks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Wave-based Parallelism: Dispatches multiple sub-tasks concurrently to maximize throughput during implementation phases.
  • State-Machine Integration: Uses track-state to ensure atomic transitions and consistent recovery if a task is interrupted.
  • Use Case: When implementing a feature with multiple independent sub-tasks, this skill fans out the work to specialized agents simultaneously, significantly reducing total development time.

Quick Start

Invoke the parallel-step skill by providing the name of the track you wish to execute in parallel.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run parallel tasks for software development tracks?

To run parallel tasks for software development tracks, you orchestrate wave-based dispatch to execute multiple sub-tasks concurrently. This fans out work to specialized subagents simultaneously, maximizing throughput and reducing total development time.

What is wave-based parallel task orchestration?

Wave-based parallel task orchestration is a mechanism that dispatches multiple independent sub-tasks concurrently during implementation phases. It manages integration cycles to coordinate specialized subagents while maintaining strict state consistency.

How does parallel task execution handle state consistency if interrupted?

Parallel task execution ensures state consistency during interruptions by using track-state for atomic transitions. This state-machine integration guarantees consistent recovery and atomic task finalization according to the defined wave-step spine.

Do I need a specific environment to orchestrate parallel subagents?

Yes, orchestrating parallel subagents requires a valid track environment and operates within the Conductor plugin ecosystem. You must adhere to the defined wave-step spine to properly finalize atomic tasks.

When should I use concurrent task dispatch for development tracks?

You should use concurrent task dispatch when implementing a feature with multiple independent sub-tasks. Fanning out the work to specialized agents simultaneously significantly reduces total development time compared to sequential execution.

What are the limitations of wave-based parallelism in task orchestration?

Wave-based parallelism requires strict adherence to the defined wave-step spine for atomic task finalization and depends on a valid track environment. It is limited by the Conductor plugin ecosystem and may not suit tasks lacking independent sub-tasks.
