SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Coordinating complex execution plans by delegating each task to a fresh subagent with isolated context, ensuring focused work and preventing context leakage.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Fresh subagent per task to keep context clean and reduce cross-task interference.
  • Two-stage review after each task: spec compliance, then code quality.
  • Question-asking capability before and during work to resolve blockers quickly.
  • Git-ready, plan-driven workflow supported by Pi subagents templates.
  • Guardrails and self-review to maintain quality and traceability.

Quick Start

Dispatch a fresh implementer subagent for each task from the full plan and perform two-stage spec and code-quality reviews after every task.

FAQPage Schema
How do I orchestrate task execution with fresh subagents to prevent context leakage?▼

You can orchestrate task execution by dispatching a fresh subagent for each task in a plan. This approach ensures per-task isolation, keeping context clean and preventing cross-task interference during complex workflows.

What is the best way to enforce test-driven development and spec compliance in an automated workflow?▼

The best way to enforce test-driven development and spec compliance is using a plan-driven workflow with guardrails. It enforces prompts and utilizes review gatekeepers to ensure code quality and spec compliance before progressing to the next task.

How does a two-stage review process work for subagent-driven development?▼

The two-stage review process evaluates each task sequentially. After a subagent completes a task, the first stage checks spec compliance, and the second stage reviews code quality, creating a structured feedback loop before progression.

Can I resolve blockers quickly when delegating tasks to isolated subagents?▼

Yes, you can resolve blockers quickly using question-asking capability before and during work. This allows the isolated subagent to request clarification and structured feedback while executing the plan-to-delivery workflow.

Does subagent-driven development work for git-ready, plan-driven workflows?▼

Yes, subagent-driven development is designed for git-ready, plan-driven workflows. It supports templates that dispatch fresh implementer subagents for each task, maintaining quality and traceability throughout the development lifecycle.
