Launches subagents to parallelize workflows.

{{#if asyncEnabled}}

• Use read jobs:// to inspect state; read jobs://<job_id> for detail.
• Use the job tool (with poll) to wait until completion. You MUST NOT poll read jobs:// in a loop. {{/if}}

{{#if defaultMode}} Current input mode: default. Shared context and custom task-call schema are available. {{/if}} {{#if schemaFreeMode}} Current input mode: schema-free. Shared context is available; custom task-call schema is disabled. For structured output, rely on the agent definition or inherited session schema. {{/if}} {{#if independentMode}} Current input mode: independent. Shared context and custom schema are both disabled. Every assignment must stand on its own. {{/if}}

{{#if contextEnabled}} Subagents lack your conversation history. Every decision, file content, and user requirement they need MUST be explicit in context or assignment. {{else}} Subagents lack your conversation history. Every decision, file content, and user requirement they need MUST be explicit in each task assignment. {{/if}}

- `agent`: Agent type for all tasks. - `.id`: CamelCase, max 32 chars - `.description`: UI display only — subagent never sees it - `.assignment`: Complete self-contained instructions. One-liners PROHIBITED; missing acceptance criteria = too vague. {{#if contextEnabled}} - `context`: Shared background prepended to every assignment. Session-specific info only. {{/if}} {{#if customSchemaEnabled}} - `schema`: JSON-encoded JTD schema for expected output. Format lives here — **MUST NOT** be duplicated in assignments. {{/if}} - `tasks`: Tasks to execute in parallel. {{#if isolationEnabled}} - `isolated`: Run in isolated environment; returns patches. Use when tasks edit overlapping files. {{/if}} {{#if contextEnabled}} - **MUST NOT** duplicate shared constraints across assignments — put them in `context` once. {{else}} - Every `assignment` must repeat any constraints, reference paths, and acceptance criteria it needs — there is no shared `context` field. {{/if}} - **MUST NOT** tell tasks to run project-wide build/test/lint. Parallel agents share the working tree; each task edits, stops. Caller verifies after all complete. - For large payloads (traces, JSON blobs), write to `local://` and pass the path in {{#if contextEnabled}}`context`{{else}}the relevant `assignment`{{/if}}. - Prefer `task` agents that investigate **and** edit in one pass. Launch a dedicated read-only discovery step only when affected files are genuinely unknown. Each task: **at most 3–5 files**. Globs, "update all", or package-wide scope = too broad. Enumerate files explicitly and fan out to a cluster of agents. **Test:** Can task B produce correct output without seeing A's result? Yes → parallel. No → sequential.

Sequential first	Then	Reason
Types/interfaces	Consumers	Need contract
API exports	Callers	Need signatures
Core module	Dependents	Import dependency
Schema/migration	App logic	Schema dependency

Safe to parallelize: independent modules, isolated file-scoped refactors, tests for existing code.

{{#if contextEnabled}} **context:** ``` ## Goal ← one sentence: what the batch accomplishes ## Non-goals ← what tasks must not touch ## Constraints ← MUST/MUST NOT rules and session decisions ## API Contract ← exact types/signatures if tasks share an interface (omit if N/A) ## Acceptance ← definition of done; build/lint runs AFTER all tasks complete ``` {{else}} No shared `context` field exists in this mode. Fold goal, non-goals, constraints, and acceptance criteria into each `assignment`. {{/if}} **assignment:** ``` ## Target ← exact file paths; named symbols; explicit non-goals ## Change ← step-by-step what to add/remove/rename; patterns/APIs to use ## Edge Cases ← tricky inputs; existing behavior that must survive ## Acceptance ← observable result proving the task is done; no project-wide commands ``` Before invoking: {{#if contextEnabled}} - `context` contains only session-specific info {{else}} - Every `assignment` includes its own goal, constraints, and acceptance criteria (no shared context) {{/if}} - Every `assignment` follows the template; no one-liners; edge cases covered - Tasks are truly parallel — you can articulate why none depends on another's output - File paths are explicit; no globs {{#if customSchemaEnabled}} - `schema` is set if you expect structured output {{else}} - Do not pass a custom task-call `schema` in this mode {{/if}}

{{#if contextEnabled}} Two tasks with non-overlapping file sets — demonstrates scope partitioning.

## Goal Rename `parseConfig` → `loadConfig` in `src/config/parser.ts` and all callers. ## Non-goals No behavior or signature changes; rename only. ## Acceptance (global) Caller runs `bun check:ts` after both tasks complete. Tasks must NOT run it. ## Target - `src/config/parser.ts`: function `parseConfig` - If `src/config/index.ts` re-exports it, update the re-export - Non-goals: do not touch callers or tests

Change

• Rename parseConfig → loadConfig (declaration + any JSDoc references)

Edge Cases

• Rename all overload signatures if overloaded
• Internal helpers like _parseConfigValue are different symbols — leave untouched
• Do not add a backwards-compat alias

Acceptance

• parseConfig no longer appears as a top-level export in parser.ts

Target

• src/cli/init.ts, src/server/bootstrap.ts, src/worker/index.ts
• Non-goals: do not touch src/config/parser.ts or src/config/index.ts

Change

• Replace import { parseConfig } → import { loadConfig }
• Replace every call site parseConfig( → loadConfig(
• For import * as cfg users, update cfg.parseConfig property access

Edge Cases

• String literals containing "parseConfig" (logs, comments) are documentation — leave them
• If a file re-exports to an external package boundary, keep the old name via export { loadConfig as parseConfig } with a // TODO: remove after next major comment

Acceptance

• No bare parseConfig identifier remains in the three target files {{/if}}
