Parallel Dispatch

Safe parallel execution of multiple agents within the same domain. This skill defines the safety invariants — the constraints that, if maintained, guarantee conflict-free merges by construction.

Recursive by design. These invariants apply at every nesting depth. A @backend-engineer[auth] that spawns sub-subagents for [auth-login] and [auth-registration] must apply the same decomposition, ownership, and merge rules internally.

When to Invoke

• Before dispatching multiple instances of the same agent type within a primitive
• When any agent (at any depth) needs to parallelize its own workload across sub-subagents
• When re-planning after a sub-task failure

1. Decomposition

Break work into parallelizable, MECE sub-tasks. Each gets a scope card.
