FAQPage Schema
How do I orchestrate parallel agents to gather evidence for scoped research questions?

You can orchestrate parallel research by dispatching multiple agents across web, codebase, and MCP sources to gather evidence, assess sufficiency, and synthesize results into actionable design inputs.

What is the best way to synthesize findings from multiple parallel researchers?

Synthesize findings by coordinating parallel researchers to collect evidence, evaluating readiness through iterative sufficiency checks, and generating traceable artifacts under the .expedite/ directory for downstream planning.

Can I use parallel research agents to evaluate evidence sufficiency and identify gaps?

Yes, parallel research agents evaluate evidence sufficiency by performing iterative checks, identifying gaps in the collected findings, and planning next steps to ensure comprehensive coverage for decision making.

How does agent orchestration work for batch-based evidence gathering across web and codebase sources?

Agent orchestration works by dispatching batch-based parallel researchers across web, codebase, and MCP sources, applying stepwise research processing to answer scoped questions and generate governance reporting artifacts.

When do I need to dispatch parallel researchers instead of doing sequential research?

You need parallel researchers for projects requiring rapid, evidence-backed decision making, where stepwise research and batch-based processing across diverse sources must identify gaps and synthesize results quickly.

What limitations exist when orchestrating research agents across different MCP sources?

Limitations include dependency on the availability and scope of configured web, codebase, and MCP sources, requiring iterative sufficiency checks and gap handling to ensure the synthesized evidence meets project readiness standards.
