name: dispatch-agents description: Use when you have 2+ independent tasks with no shared state — dispatches parallel subagents for each task.

Dispatching Parallel Agents

When to Use

• Tasks are truly independent (no shared files, no sequential dependency)
• Each task is well-defined with clear success criteria
• 2-5 tasks in parallel (more than 5 becomes hard to review)

Process

1. List all tasks and confirm independence
2. For each task, write a self-contained prompt including:
   • Full context (don't assume agent knows anything)
   • Exact files to touch
   • Success criteria
   • How to verify
3. Dispatch all agents simultaneously using the Agent tool
4. Collect results and merge
5. Run verification across all changes together
6. Invoke requesting-code-review to dispatch the code-reviewer agent on merged result, then handle findings via receiving-code-review

Safety

Never dispatch agents for tasks involving shared state — race conditions and conflicts will waste more time than sequential execution saves.
