Parallel Agents

When you need multiple specialized perspectives on a codebase, this orchestrates Claude's 17 domain-specific agents (security auditors, frontend specialists, test engineers, etc.) to work in parallel or sequence. You invoke them conversationally, like "use the security-auditor agent to review authentication, then have the test-engineer check coverage." The real win is context passing between agents and getting a single synthesized report instead of scattered outputs. Best for comprehensive analysis where you need security, performance, and architecture viewpoints on the same code. Overkill for simple fixes, but solid for feature reviews or full audits where one agent's perspective isn't enough.

Native Parallel Agents

Orchestration through Claude Code's built-in Agent Tool

Overview

This skill enables coordinating multiple specialized agents through Claude Code's native agent system. Unlike external scripts, this approach keeps all orchestration within Claude's control.

When to Use Orchestration

✅ Good for:

Complex tasks requiring multiple expertise domains
Code analysis from security, performance, and quality perspectives
Comprehensive reviews (architecture + security + testing)
Feature implementation needing backend + frontend + database work

❌ Not for:

Simple, single-domain tasks
Quick fixes or small changes
Tasks where one agent suffices

Native Agent Invocation

Single Agent

Use the security-auditor agent to review authentication

Sequential Chain

First, use the explorer-agent to discover project structure.
Then, use the backend-specialist to review API endpoints.
Finally, use the test-engineer to identify test gaps.

With Context Passing

Use the frontend-specialist to analyze React components.
Based on those findings, have the test-engineer generate component tests.
