SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Broad user goals often exceed the safe bounds of a single agent. This skill breaks them into multiple narrowly scoped subtasks with explicit roles, ownership, and outputs to enable parallel delegation and safer execution.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Decomposition: split broad goals into independent read-only or implementation subtasks with non-overlapping write scopes.
  • Governance and routing: each delegated task carries a compact contract to guide model behavior, required outputs, and validation.
  • Orchestrator integration: collects results, resolves conflicts, and performs final validation in the main thread.
  • Use cases: feature ports, large codebase investigations, multi-area reviews, and complex implementation plans.

Quick Start

Decompose a broad user goal into narrow subtasks and delegate each to a separate worker with explicit scope, ownership, and output expectations.

FAQPage Schema
How do I decompose a large implementation plan into parallel subtasks?

You can break down broad user goals into independent, scoped subtasks executed by parallel agents. Each subtask receives a compact governance contract to guide model behavior, required outputs, and validation.

What is task decomposition for parallel agents?

Task decomposition for parallel agents is the process of splitting broad goals into independent, non-overlapping read-only or write lanes. It enforces route integrity and scoped ownership to enable safer parallel delegation.

How do I resolve conflicts when merging results from parallel codebase investigations?

You resolve conflicts from parallel codebase investigations by integrating delegated outputs back into the orchestrator thread. The main thread collects results, resolves conflicts, and performs final validation.

Can I use parallel task decomposition for multi-area code reviews?

Yes, parallel task decomposition supports multi-area code reviews by splitting the review into independent read-only subtasks with non-overlapping scopes. This allows parallel agents to investigate distinct codebase areas safely.

When should I not use parallel subtask decomposition for feature ports?

You should avoid parallel subtask decomposition for feature ports when the implementation requires overlapping write scopes across components. Non-overlapping write lanes and route integrity are mandatory, making tightly coupled goals unsuitable for parallel delegation.
