Dispatching Parallel Agents

Install and use Dispatching Parallel Agents

1. Install the Skill

   Run the upstream command in your project, then follow the author’s setup guide and any requirements below.

   npx skills add obra/superpowers

2. Give your agent a task

   Provide the relevant files, context and constraints. For example:

   Identify which of these test failures are independent, delegate bounded investigations and review the combined results.

About this Skill

Split independent problems into scoped agent tasks and integrate their results after review.

Why we picked it

Parallelize unrelated test failures or independent subsystem investigations.

What it helps with

• Parallelize unrelated test failures or independent subsystem investigations.

Scope and dependencies

Each agent gets a bounded task, constraints and a report contract; the coordinator reviews and verifies the combined result. Shared-state work is not a suitable parallel target.

For the complete workflow, follow the upstream host-specific plugin guide and retain referenced sibling Skills and supporting files.

Before you use it

• A host that supports concurrent subagents and the permissions to use them.
