# Dispatching parallel agents
## Gate (required)
Use this skill **only if**:
- User or parent explicitly allows parallel subagents, **and**
- Tasks are independent (no shared files, no ordering dependency on partial output)
If either condition fails, use sequential `incremental-implementation` instead.
## When to use
- Independent reviews (security + tests + API contract) on the same commit
- Parallel research spikes with separate output files
- Large plan with disjoint file ownership per task
## When not to use
- Single shared module being edited by multiple agents
- Database migrations or sequential deploy steps
- User did not approve multi-agent execution
## Workflow
1. **Partition** — list tasks with disjoint `Files:` sets
2. **Brief** — each agent gets scope, constraints, verify command, output format
3. **Dispatch** — run parallel agents; cap concurrency to what the harness supports
4. **Collect** — gather outputs without assuming correctness
5. **Integrate** — parent reconciles conflicts, runs full verification, single commit strategy per user rules
## Integration checklist
- [ ] No conflicting edits to the same paths
- [ ] Combined diff reviewed by parent (or `requesting-code-review`)
- [ ] Full test/lint suite on integrated result
- [ ] User informed of what each agent did
## Anti-patterns
- Parallel implementers on the same feature branch without file boundaries
- Merging subagent output without reading diffs
- Spawning agents to avoid reading the codebase
