See CREDITS.md. --> # Dispatching Parallel Agents ## Overview You delegate tasks to specialized agents with isolated context. By precisely crafting their instructions and context, you ensure they stay focused and succeed at their task. They should never inherit your session's context or history — you construct exactly what they need. This also preserves your own context for coordination work. 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?"
