Dispatching Parallel Agents

--- name: dispatching-parallel-agents description: Use when facing 2+ independent tasks that can be worked on without shared state or sequential dependencies --- # Dispatching Parallel Agents ## Overview When you have multiple unrelated failures (different test files, different subsystems, different bugs), investigating them sequentially wastes time. Each investigation is independent and can happen in parallel. **Core principle:** Dispatch one agent per independent problem domain. Let them work concurrently. ## When to Use ```dot digraph when_to_use { "Multiple failures?" [shape=diamond]; "Are they independent?" [shape=diamond]; "Single agent investigates all" [shape=box]; "One agent per problem domain" [shape=box]; "Can they work in parallel?" [shape=diamond]; "Sequential agents" [shape=box]; "Parallel dispatch" [shape=box]; "Multiple failures?" -> "Are they independent?" [label="yes"]; "Are they independent?" -> "Single agent investigates al
