Parallel Agent Dispatch

Conventions that apply every time more than one agent runs in parallel. Prevents the top failure modes observed across real multi-agent sessions: dirty-worktree cross-contamination, context overflow mid-task, and silent exits that require manual salvage from orphan branches.

When to Use This Skill

Activate whenever the orchestrator is about to spawn >1 agent in parallel:

• Plain Agent tool fan-out (N concurrent invocations in one message)
• TeamCreate + teammate spawn via agent-teams
• Worktree-isolated parallel implementation across multiple repos or features
• Parallel investigation / audit swarms

Single-agent delegation does not need this contract — agent-teams' out-of-scope protocol is sufficient for one-off subagents.
