hackathon-prp-parallel

A command for rapidly planning and building a hackathon solution with many AI agents working at the same time. It assigns agents to specification, planning, backend, frontend, integration, and demo tasks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to generate technical and user-experience specifications, implementation plans, backend and frontend work, integration tasks, and demo preparation for a hackathon challenge.
Why use it?
It divides a time-limited challenge into many workstreams that can be explored concurrently. This helps teams assess ideas and prepare a working solution within a short event.

Made for: Claude Code.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

hackathon-prp-parallel scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Hackathon PRP Parallel Workflow - Maximum Speed Edition

Execute a massive parallel workflow that leverages multiple AI agents working simultaneously to deliver a complete solution in record time.

Overview

This workflow deploys 20+ parallel agents:

  • 5 agents for spec generation (different perspectives)
  • 5 agents for prompt plan creation
  • 5 agents for backend implementation
  • 5 agents for frontend implementation
  • 2 agents for integration and demo prep

All agents work concurrently and report results for synthesis.

Step 1: Parallel Spec Generation (5 minutes)

Deploy 5 parallel agents to analyze the challenge from different angles:

Use the Task tool to run these 5 research agents in PARALLEL for challenge: $ARGUMENTS

Task 1 - Technical Architecture Agent:
"Analyze {{challenge}} and create technical architecture spec:
- System design and components
- Technology choices and justification
- API design patterns
- Database schema design
- Performance considerations
- Security architecture
Save to: PRPs/specs/{{challenge|slugify}}-tech-spec.md"

Task 2 - User Experience Agent:
"Analyze {{challenge}} from UX perspective:
- User journeys and flows
- UI component requirements
- Interaction patterns
- Accessibility requirements
- Error handling UX
- Loading and feedback states
Save to: PRPs/specs/{{challenge|slugify}}-ux-spec.md"

Task 3 - Business Logic Agent:
"Define business rules and logic for {{challenge}}:
- Core business rules
- Validation requirements
- Edge cases and exceptions
- Data integrity rules
- Business process flows
- Integration requirements
Save to: PRPs/specs/{{challenge|slugify}}-business-spec.md"

Task 4 - Testing Strategy Agent:
"Create comprehensive testing strategy:
- Test scenarios and cases
- Performance test requirements
- Security test cases
- Integration test approach
- Demo test scenarios
- Coverage targets
Save to: PRPs/specs/{{challenge|slugify}}-test-spec.md"

Task 5 - Demo Impact Agent:
"Analyze for maximum demo impact:
- Key features to highlight
- Wow factors to implement
- Metrics to showcase
- Story narrative
- Backup plans
- Time allocations
Save to: PRPs/specs/{{challenge|slugify}}-demo-spec.md"

Synthesize all specs into: PRPs/specs/{{challenge|slugify}}-unified-spec.md

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

hackathon-prp-parallel is a command published in the GitHub repository mort-lab/excel-mcp (5 stars, last pushed 25d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 14 tokens to every session and 2,539 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
