Should I use this for exploratory debugging?

No. If you don't yet know what is broken, it is better to use a single agent for exploration until independent problem domains are clearly identified.

When should I use parallel agent dispatching?

Use this skill when you have two or more independent tasks, such as failures in different test files or bugs in unrelated subsystems that do not share state.

How does this improve development speed?

By allowing multiple investigations to happen concurrently rather than sequentially, you can solve three or more problems in the time it would typically take to solve one.

Will parallel agents interfere with each other's work?

The pattern includes an identification step to ensure domains are independent. As long as agents are assigned to non-overlapping files or logic, interference is avoided.

Productivity & Workflow

Orchestrates multiple independent AI agents to investigate and resolve unrelated software failures or tasks concurrently.

About

The Parallel Agent Dispatching skill provides a structured framework for scaling Claude's problem-solving capabilities by identifying independent problem domains and dispatching specialized agents to handle them in parallel. This approach is essential for high-velocity development environments where multiple unrelated test failures or subsystem issues arise simultaneously, allowing you to bypass sequential debugging bottlenecks and integrate fixes from several sources at once.
