Use when facing two or more independent pieces of work - separate bugs, separate subsystems, separate repos - that could be executed by concurrent agents, before dispatching any of them. Also use when the user says "fan out", "parallelize this", or hands over a pile of unrelated failures.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# stations

A kitchen runs fast because each station cooks its own dish: garde manger does not wait for the grill. But the speed comes from the cuts being made before service, and two cooks at one board ruin both dishes. This skill is the expeditor's fan-out: deciding what is genuinely separate work, giving each station a complete ticket, and tasting everything together before it leaves.

**Core principle:** parallelism is earned by proving independence, not assumed from the symptom list. The fan-out is the last step of triage, never the first move.

## Triage before any dispatch

The expensive mistake is dispatching one agent per symptom. Symptoms group by root cause, and a refactor that broke four things usually broke two things twice.

1. **Cluster by suspected cause, not by file.** Two failures in different test files that both touch the same layer (the same data shape, the same recent change) are one cluster until proven otherwise. Check what actually changed (`git log`, the refactor's diff) before declaring anything independent. Symptoms living in different files is not independence; it is the same bug crashing in two places.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add escoffier-labs/skillet/stations@sha256:370069f713942eaa

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
