subagent-driven-development

Parallelize coding by dispatching independent subtasks to multiple subagents concurrently using git worktrees. This prevents slow, conflict-prone single-thread coding when a plan has three or more independent tasks totaling over two hours.

Git worktree isolation creates separate branches and working directories for each task. This ensures that multiple subagents operating simultaneously never overwrite the same files, preventing conflicts during parallel code generation.

Use subagent-driven development during BUILD workflow runs when your multi-task plan contains three or more independent tasks with no dependencies, and the total estimated work time exceeds approximately two hours.

Coordinate parallel subagents by writing a per-task JSON dispatch spec to `.ohc/state/dispatch-{id}.json`. This file defines the worktree, owned files, and success criteria so each agent operates deterministically.

Verify code from parallel worktrees by defining a merge-back strategy that consolidates isolated branches, followed by running a verifier on the merged result to validate the final integrated codebase.

No, parallel subagent dispatch requires tasks to be completely independent. If tasks have dependencies on each other, they cannot be safely parallelized using git worktrees and must be executed sequentially.
