Orchestrate

Coordinate substantial work across focused subagents while remaining available to the user and retaining responsibility for the integrated result.

When to Use

• Use when a task has multiple independent research, review, or implementation lanes.
• Use when parallel work will materially reduce elapsed time or improve coverage.
• Use when a coordinator must synthesize several bounded outputs into one verified result.

Keep trivial tasks with the coordinator.

Workflow

1. Decompose the task into distinct, bounded assignments with explicit outputs.
2. Run narrow, read-only scouts in parallel with low reasoning effort and no

inherited conversation when the runtime supports those controls. Give each scout all scoped context and evidence required to complete its assignment.

3. Use medium reasoning effort for routine implementation and high reasoning

effort for difficult work.

4. Give each subagent distinct ownership. Prevent overlapping assignments, and

instruct leaf workers not to delegate.

5. Integrate the outputs, resolve conflicts, and verify the combined result.
6. Keep approvals and externally consequential decisions with the user.

Examples

• For a repository-wide feature, assign non-overlapping agents to architecture

inspection, implementation, and test review, then integrate their findings and run the final verification from the coo
