High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
What is a recursive three-role agent architecture in Claude Code?▼

A recursive three-role agent architecture structures Claude Code workflows using a chief-of-staff, an orchestrator, and specialized sub-agents. This hierarchy delegates tasks recursively, allowing complex software engineering processes to be managed and executed by specialized automated roles.

How do I install The Stoa substrate for Claude Code?▼

To install The Stoa substrate, run the /stoa-about skill to access the guided installation option. This provides a step-by-step walkthrough for setting up the recursive three-role agent architecture within your Claude Code environment.

Do I need prior knowledge of Claude Code to use The Stoa agent system?▼

Yes, using The Stoa requires existing knowledge of Claude Code and its native agent system. The architecture builds upon Claude Code's foundational capabilities to deploy its chief-of-staff, orchestrator, and specialized sub-agents effectively.

How does The Stoa architecture route tasks to specialized sub-agents?▼

The Stoa routes tasks through a chief-of-staff and orchestrator layer that delegates processing recursively to specialized sub-agents. You can explore the exact routing mechanisms and visual architecture modes through the skill's interactive visual tour.

Can I see examples of The Stoa architecture handling software engineering tasks?▼

Yes, you can access an in-depth case study through the /stoa-about skill. This documentation provides detailed examples of the recursive three-role agent architecture operating in real software engineering scenarios.
