SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Complex tasks often require meticulous planning, coordination across subagents, and ongoing progress visibility; this skill standardizes the workflow to reduce miscommunication and delays.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured Planning: Create a task_plan.md and decompose tasks for parallel execution.
  • Subagent Orchestration: Spawn multiple subagents to handle batches concurrently while keeping the main agent responsive.
  • Progress Tracking & Reporting: Automatic 5-minute updates and integrated reporting to MEMORY.md.
  • Unified Results: Generate a consolidated report and artifacts for stakeholders.
  • Use Case: For a complex R&D task requiring multiple research threads and coordination across teams.

Quick Start

Initiate a planning session by running the planning-with-files script to start a new task workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I orchestrate subagents for parallel execution of complex tasks?

Subagent orchestration for parallel execution is managed by spawning multiple subagents to handle task batches concurrently, while keeping the main agent responsive and enforcing structured planning through a task_plan.md file.

What is the best way to track progress and report milestones for multi-step workflows?

Progress tracking and reporting for multi-step workflows is handled through automatic 5-minute updates and integrated reporting directly into MEMORY.md, ensuring ongoing visibility and reliable artifact generation.

Can I use task-workflow for R&D tasks requiring multiple parallel research threads?

Yes, this workflow is designed for complex R&D tasks requiring multiple research threads, providing standardized planning, parallel subagent dispatch, and unified reporting to coordinate across teams effectively.

How do I start a structured planning session for end-to-end task management?

To start a structured planning session for end-to-end task management, initiate the workflow by running the planning-with-files script to decompose tasks and generate a new task plan.

Does subagent orchestration require any external dependencies to maintain strict milestones?

No external dependencies are required to maintain strict milestones with subagent orchestration; the workflow enforces structured planning, regular progress updates, and unified reporting entirely through internal templates and guardrails.

When should I not use a structured planning workflow for complex tasks?

A structured planning workflow with subagent orchestration should not be used for simple, linear tasks that lack strict milestones or do not require parallel execution, as the overhead of standardized templates and guardrails would cause delays.
