parallel-agent-orchestration

parallel-agent-orchestration is a skill for Claude Code from itallstartedwithaidea/agent-skills. It costs 35 tokens per session (2,698 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for splitting a large task into independent pieces, giving those pieces to multiple agents at the same time, and combining their results. It includes handling disagreements between the separate results.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for independent reviews of files, campaigns, data sources, or other subtasks that can be performed concurrently.
Why use it?
It can shorten work that would otherwise happen one task after another. It also gives a structure for coordinating several analyses without losing a unified outcome.

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

parallel-agent-orchestration 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 7d 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.

Parallel Agent Orchestration

Part of Agent Skills™ by googleadsagent.ai™

Description

Parallel Agent Orchestration is the discipline of dispatching, coordinating, and aggregating results from multiple concurrent subagents to dramatically accelerate complex tasks. Sequential single-agent execution is the default mode for most AI workflows, but it leaves enormous performance on the table. When a task can be decomposed into independent subtasks — analyzing multiple campaigns, reviewing multiple files, searching multiple data sources — parallel dispatch can reduce wall-clock time by 3-10x while maintaining result quality.

This skill encodes the subagent orchestration patterns developed for the Superpowers extension ecosystem and deployed in production at googleadsagent.ai™, where Buddy™ routinely dispatches parallel subagents to analyze different aspects of a Google Ads account simultaneously. One subagent analyzes bidding strategy, another evaluates keyword performance, a third assesses creative quality — all running concurrently. The orchestrator then aggregates their findings into a unified recommendation set, resolving any conflicts between the independent analyses.

The key challenges in parallel orchestration are task partitioning (decomposing the work into truly independent units), result aggregation (combining outputs that may conflict or overlap), resource management (respecting rate limits and cost budgets across parallel agents), and progress monitoring (tracking multiple concurrent streams without losing visibility).

Use When

  • A task naturally decomposes into 3+ independent subtasks
  • Wall-clock time is a critical constraint (user waiting, SLA requirements)
  • Multiple data sources or documents need analysis simultaneously
  • Code review spans many files that can be reviewed independently
  • Batch operations (migrations, refactoring) across multiple files or services
  • You need diverse perspectives on the same problem (ensemble reasoning)

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.
