name: agent-coordination description: Coordinate multiple specialized Skills and Task Agents through parallel, sequential, swarm, hybrid, or iterative execution strategies. Use when orchestrating multi-worker workflows, managing dependencies, or optimizing complex task execution with quality gates.

Agent Coordination

Coordinate multiple specialized Skills and Task Agents through strategic execution patterns.

Quick Reference

• Strategies - Parallel, sequential, swarm, hybrid, iterative
• Skills vs Agents - When to use each
• Quality Gates - Validation checkpoints
• Examples - Coordination examples

When to Use

• Orchestrating multi-worker workflows
• Managing dependencies between tasks
• Optimizing complex task execution
• Quality-critical work with validation

CRITICAL: Skills vs Task Agents

Skills (via Skill tool): Instruction sets that guide Claude

• Examples: rust-code-quality, architecture-validation, plan-gap-analysis

Agents (via Task tool): Autonomous sub-processes that execute

• Examples: code-reviewer, test-runner, debugger, loop-agent

See strategies.md for coordination patterns and skills-agents.md for when to use each.
