Dispatching Parallel Agents

Overview

One agent per independent problem domain. Let them work concurrently.

Core principle: Dispatch one agent per independent problem domain.

When to Use

3+ test files failing with different root causes
Multiple subsystems broken independently
Each problem understood without context from others
No shared state between investigations

When NOT to Use

Failures are related (fix one might fix others)
Need full system state understanding
Agents would interfere (editing same files)

Process

Identify independent domains
Dispatch agents in parallel (ctx.parallel.all)
Check for conflicts between solutions
Run full test suite to verify integration

Agents Used

Process agents defined in
```
dispatching-parallel-agents.js
```
