--- name: subagent-driven-development description: Use when executing implementation plans with independent tasks in the current session --- # Subagent-Driven Development Execute plan by dispatching fresh subagent per task, with two-stage review after each: spec compliance review first, then code quality review. **Core principle:** Fresh subagent per task + two-stage review (spec then quality) = high quality, fast iteration ## When to Use ```dot digraph when_to_use { "Have implementation plan?" [shape=diamond]; "Tasks mostly independent?" [shape=diamond]; "Stay in this session?" [shape=diamond]; "subagent-driven-development" [shape=box]; "executing-plans" [shape=box]; "Manual execution or brainstorm first" [shape=box]; "Have implementation plan?" -> "Tasks mostly independent?" [label="yes"]; "Have implementation plan?" -> "Manual execution or brainstorm first" [label="no"]; "Tasks mostly independent?" -> "Stay in this session?" [label="yes"]; "Tasks mostly independent?" -> "Manual execution or brainstorm first" [label="no - tightly coupled"]; "Stay in this session?" -> "subagent-driven-development" [label="yes"]; "Stay in this session?" -> "executing-plans" [label="no - parallel session"]; } ``` **vs. Executing Plans (parallel session):** - Same session (no context switch) - Fresh subagent per task (no context pollution) - Two-stage review after each task: spec compliance first, then code quality - Faster iteration (no human-in-loop between tasks) ## The Process ```dot digraph process { rankdir=TB; subgraph cluster_per_task { label="Per Task"; "Dispatch implementer subagent (./implementer-prompt.md)" [shape=box]; "Implementer subagent asks questions?" [shape=diamond]; "Answer questions, provide context" [shape=box]; "Implementer subagent implements, tests, commits, self-reviews" [shape=box]; "Dispatch spec reviewer subagent (./spec-reviewer-prompt.md)" [ [... prompt truncated for preview ...]
