parallel SKILL.md skillA

parallel from tercel/code-forge is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add tercel/code-forge/parallel@git:20260422.d0e053f

Pins git:20260422.d0e053f in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when facing 2+ independent problems that can be solved concurrently — dispatches one sub-agent per problem domain for parallel investigation and fixing. For parallel task execution within a feature, use code-forge:impl instead.

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

# Code Forge — Parallel

## ⚡ Execution Entry Point

@../shared/execution-entrypoint.md

**For this skill:** start at **the first executable step**. If you catch yourself about to say "falling back to manual handling", STOP and go to the indicated step.

---

Dispatch independent sub-agents to solve multiple unrelated problems concurrently.

## When to Use

- 3+ test files failing with different root causes
- Multiple independent subsystems broken simultaneously
- Several unrelated bugs reported at once
- Any situation with 2+ problems that share no state

## When NOT to Use

- Failures are related (fix one, others may resolve)
- Problems share state or dependencies
- Need full system state to diagnose (single-threaded investigation needed)
- Only 1 problem exists

**For task execution within a feature:** Use `/code-forge:impl` which has built-in parallel task support.

## Core Principle

**One agent per independent problem domain. Let them work concurrently.**

## Workflow

### Step 1: Identify Problems

List all problems. For each, note:
- What is failing (test file, error message, component)
- Which files/modules are involved
- Whether it shares state with other problems

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add tercel/code-forge/parallel@sha256:7c7e81fb080e0821

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260422.d0e053f, 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.
