parallel-agents

Coordinates parallel subagent dispatch to solve multiple independent problems concurrently, with structured prompts and conflict-free integration. Use when there are 2+ independent failures, bugs, tasks, or investigations that do not share state -- e.g. multiple test files failing for different reasons, unrelated subsystems broken, or batch tasks that can run simultaneously. DO NOT TRIGGER when failures are related, require shared context, or agents would edit the same files.

Quality

Content

77%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

This is a solid, actionable skill with clear workflow steps and excellent concrete examples including agent prompt templates and real-world scenarios. Its main weakness is verbosity — several sections are redundant (When to Use / When NOT to Use overlap, Key Benefits restates obvious points, Real-World Impact duplicates the earlier example), and the Graphviz diagram adds tokens without proportional value. Trimming ~30% of the content would improve token efficiency without losing any actionable guidance.

Suggestions

Remove the 'Key Benefits' and 'Real-World Impact' sections — they restate information already conveyed in the example and pattern sections.

Consolidate 'When to Use' and 'When NOT to Use' into a single decision section, removing the Graphviz diagram in favor of a brief bullet list.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The skill has significant redundancy: 'When to Use' and 'When NOT to Use' sections overlap, 'Key Benefits' restates what's already clear, and the 'Real-World Impact' section at the end repeats the 'Real Example from Session' section. The Graphviz diagram adds tokens without much value Claude can act on. However, the core pattern and examples are reasonably efficient.

2 / 3

Actionability

The skill provides concrete, copy-paste-ready agent prompt templates, specific TypeScript dispatch syntax, detailed examples with actual test file names and error descriptions, and a clear 'Common Mistakes' section with do/don't pairs. The agent prompt structure example is particularly actionable and executable.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

The 4-step workflow (Identify → Create Tasks → Dispatch → Review/Integrate) is clearly sequenced with explicit validation checkpoints in the 'Verification' section (review summaries, check conflicts, run full suite, spot check). The feedback loop of checking for conflicts before integration addresses the destructive-change concern.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

The content is a monolithic single file with no references to supporting documents. While the sections are well-organized with clear headers, the file is quite long (~150 lines of content) and could benefit from splitting the real-world example and detailed prompt templates into separate referenced files. However, no bundle files exist to reference.

Description

100%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

This is an excellent skill description that clearly defines its purpose, provides rich trigger terms, and explicitly addresses both when to use and when NOT to use the skill. The inclusion of concrete examples (multiple test files, unrelated subsystems, batch tasks) and the negative trigger clause make it highly actionable for skill selection. The description uses proper third-person voice throughout.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple specific concrete actions: 'parallel subagent dispatch', 'structured prompts', 'conflict-free integration'. Also enumerates concrete use cases like 'multiple test files failing for different reasons, unrelated subsystems broken, or batch tasks'.

3 / 3

Completeness

Clearly answers both 'what' (coordinates parallel subagent dispatch with structured prompts and conflict-free integration) and 'when' (explicit 'Use when' clause with specific triggers, plus a 'DO NOT TRIGGER' clause for negative cases).

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Includes strong natural trigger terms users would say: 'independent failures', 'bugs', 'tasks', 'investigations', 'multiple test files failing', 'unrelated subsystems broken', 'batch tasks', 'concurrently', 'simultaneously'. Good coverage of variations.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Highly distinctive with a clear niche around parallel/concurrent independent task execution. The explicit 'DO NOT TRIGGER' clause for related failures and shared-context scenarios further reduces conflict risk with sequential debugging or single-task skills.
