Parallel Agent Spawner

Spawns and coordinates parallel agents for faster feature completion.

Quick Start

Spawn Parallel Agents

Copyfrom scripts.parallel_spawner import ParallelSpawner

spawner = ParallelSpawner(project_dir)
results = await spawner.spawn_parallel(
    tasks=["feature-1", "feature-2", "feature-3"],
    agent_type="coding"
)

Coordinate Results

Copyawait spawner.wait_all()
summary = spawner.get_results_summary()

Agent Types

Spawn Configuration

Copy@dataclass
class SpawnConfig:
    max_parallel: int = 3
    timeout_per_agent: int = 1800  # 30 min
    retry_failed: bool = True
    merge_strategy: str = "sequential"  # or "git-merge"

Integration Points

• autonomous-loop: Provides work to parallelize
• coding-agent: Worker agents for features
• checkpoint-manager: Create checkpoints before spawn
• error-recoverer: Handle agent failures
