SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Coordinating a full feature lifecycle — from idea to merged pull request — across one or many repositories requires constant context switching between planning, coding, reviewing, testing, and PR management. This Skill acts as an orchestrator that drives that pipeline through specialized subagents while keeping the user in control at every gate. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Pipeline Orchestration: Runs a Refine → Implement → Review → QA → PR pipeline, spawning Architect, Manager, Coder, Code Reviewer, QA, and Pull Request subagents in the background via the Agent tool. - Multi-Repo Support: Resolves per-repo build configurations from agent-build.yaml files, supports mono-repo sub-projects, and runs integration, iOS, and Android build validation across repositories. - Workflow State Management: Maintains BACKLOG/TODO/DONE/BUGS markdown files, per-task files, and a timestamped session journal, with an optional GitHub Projects board backend. - Use Case: You describe a feature spanning a Django backend and a mobile app. The coordinator scopes it with you, spawns an architect to plan it, a manager to break it into tasks, coders to implement in parallel, reviewers and QA to verify, and finally opens pull requests — checking in with you at every gate. ## Quick Start Ask the coordinator to pick up a feature from the backlog and run it through the refinement and implementation pipeline.

FAQPage Schema
How do I orchestrate multi-agent development workflows in Claude Code?▼

Use a coordinator agent that spawns specialized subagents via the Agent tool for each pipeline stage: architect for planning, manager for task breakdown, coders for implementation, and reviewers plus QA for verification. Each subagent reads its instructions from its own SKILL.md file.

How do I manage features across multiple git repositories with AI agents?▼

Define each repo in agent.yaml with a path and a pointer to a per-repo agent-build.yaml containing build and test commands. The coordinator resolves each task's Repo field to the correct workspace and passes the resolved paths explicitly to execution agents.

Can the coordinator commit or push code directly?▼

No. The coordinator never writes application code and never pushes to remote or merges to the default branch. All code changes go through subagents, and every change must land via a pull request opened by the Pull Request agent after a green local test gate.

What happens when a build tool is missing on the local platform?▼

Platform-constrained failures such as missing Xcode or Android NDK are not retried. The source commit is accepted as complete, the task file records a Manual Steps Required section, and the missing steps are surfaced to the user.

Does the coordinator support GitHub Projects instead of markdown files?▼

Yes. Setting workflow.backend to github_project in agent.yaml replaces markdown backlog operations with delegations to a board-man subagent that manages issues, statuses, and open PRs on a GitHub Projects board.
