FAQPage Schema
How do I coordinate cross-squad work with safe handoffs?▼

Cross-squad coordination applies when tasks span multiple squads, require shared decisions, or involve cross-repo handoffs. You use it for scenarios like architectural changes or platform-wide features that require shared decisions.

How does manifest-based discovery work for cross-squad coordination?▼

Manifest-based discovery locates other squads via well-known paths, upstream configs, and registries. This mechanism allows your squad to find and interact with other squads for controlled delegation.

Can I share context across squads without leaking internal state or secrets?▼

Yes, context sharing and safe handoffs are designed with minimal exposure of secrets and controlled delegation. This ensures internal state leakage is minimized during cross-squad task governance.

What is the best way to delegate tasks across multiple Squad instances?▼

The best way to delegate tasks is by initiating a cross-squad handoff with a concise description and acceptance criteria. This provides traceability and governance for cross-squad workflows.

When should I not use cross-squad coordination for task delegation?▼

You should not use cross-squad coordination for tasks that remain entirely within a single squad. It is specifically built for tasks spanning multiple squads or requiring cross-repo handoffs.
