SubAgent pattern selection optimizes phase-aware agent collaboration by matching agent types to phase characteristics and step-start events. The Skill provides 14 SubAgent definitions with responsibility boundaries and parallel-execution logic aligned to ADR_013, enabling you to configure the best combination for your workflow phase.

The Skill defines 14 agent types with specific responsibilities and phase applicability. Each agent type has designated roles in different phases; the Skill clarifies responsibility boundaries so you assign agents correctly during phase planning and avoid overlapping or missing coverage.

Parallel-execution logic in the Skill evaluates SubAgent dependencies and phase constraints to determine safe parallelization. During step-start events, the Skill helps you identify which agents can run concurrently without violating responsibility boundaries, reducing overall workflow latency.

Yes. The Skill covers error-fix scenarios within phase-specific combination rules. When errors occur during step execution, the Skill guides you to select recovery agents and reassign responsibilities while maintaining phase integrity and ADR_013 compliance.

Phase transitions require SubAgent reassignment based on phase characteristics. The Skill maps which agents remain active, which retire, and which activate as phases progress, preventing configuration gaps and ensuring continuous coverage throughout the workflow.

The Skill provides patterns and responsibility frameworks applicable during step-start events and phase planning across agent-orchestration workflows. It abstracts orchestration logic, focusing on agent selection and configuration independent of specific engine implementation.
