SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Broad user goals often exceed the safe bounds of a single agent. This skill breaks them into multiple narrowly scoped subtasks with explicit roles, ownership, and outputs to enable parallel delegation and safer execution.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Decomposition: split broad goals into independent read-only or implementation subtasks with non-overlapping write scopes.
  • Governance and routing: each delegated task carries a compact contract to guide model behavior, required outputs, and validation.
  • Orchestrator integration: collects results, resolves conflicts, and performs final validation in the main thread.
  • Use cases: feature ports, large codebase investigations, multi-area reviews, and complex implementation plans.

Quick Start

Decompose a broad user goal into narrow subtasks and delegate each to a separate worker with explicit scope, ownership, and output expectations.

FAQPage Schema
How do I decompose a large implementation plan into parallel subtasks?▼

You can break down broad user goals into independent, scoped subtasks executed by parallel agents. Each subtask receives a compact governance contract to guide model behavior, required outputs, and validation.

What is task decomposition for parallel agents?▼

Task decomposition for parallel agents is the process of splitting broad goals into independent, non-overlapping read-only or write lanes. It enforces route integrity and scoped ownership to enable safer parallel delegation.

How do I resolve conflicts when merging results from parallel codebase investigations?▼

You resolve conflicts from parallel codebase investigations by integrating delegated outputs back into the orchestrator thread. The main thread collects results, resolves conflicts, and performs final validation.

Can I use parallel task decomposition for multi-area code reviews?▼

Yes, parallel task decomposition supports multi-area code reviews by splitting the review into independent read-only subtasks with non-overlapping scopes. This allows parallel agents to investigate distinct codebase areas safely.

When should I not use parallel subtask decomposition for feature ports?▼

You should avoid parallel subtask decomposition for feature ports when the implementation requires overlapping write scopes across components. Non-overlapping write lanes and route integrity are mandatory, making tightly coupled goals unsuitable for parallel delegation.
