parallel-agents
Multi-agent orchestration patterns. Use when multiple independent tasks can run with different domain expertise or when comprehensive analysis requires multiple perspectives.
Native Parallel Agents
Orchestration through Claude Code's built-in Agent Tool
Overview
This skill enables coordinating multiple specialized agents through Claude Code's native agent system. Unlike external scripts, this approach keeps all orchestration within Claude's control.
When to Use Orchestration
✅ Good for:
- Complex tasks requiring multiple expertise domains
- Code analysis from security, performance, and quality perspectives
- Comprehensive reviews (architecture + security + testing)
- Feature implementation needing backend + frontend + database work
❌ Not for:
- Simple, single-domain tasks
- Quick fixes or small changes
- Tasks where one agent suffices
Native Agent Invocation
Single Agent
Use the security-auditor agent to review authentication
Sequential Chain
First, use the explorer-agent to discover project structure.
Then, use the backend-specialist to review API endpoints.
Finally, use the test-engineer to identify test gaps.
With Context Passing
Use the frontend-specialist to analyze React components.
Based on those findings, have the test-engineer generate component tests.
Resume Previous Work
Resume agent [agentId] and continue with additional requirements.
