Native Parallel Agents
Orchestration through Antigravity's built-in Agent Tool
Overview
This skill enables coordinating multiple specialized agents through Antigravity's native agent system. Unlike external scripts, this approach keeps all orchestration within Antigravity's control.
When to Use Orchestration
✅ Good for:
- Complex tasks requiring multiple expertise domains
- Code analysis from security, performance, and quality perspectives
- Comprehensive reviews (architecture + security + testing)
- Feature implementation needing backend + frontend + database work
❌ Not for:
- Simple, single-domain tasks
- Quick fixes or small changes
- Tasks where one agent suffices
Native Agent Invocation
Single Agent
Use the security-auditor agent to review authentication
Sequential Chain
First, use the explorer-agent to discover project structure.
Then, use the backend-specialist to review API endpoints.
Finally, use the test-engineer to identify test gaps.
With Context Passing
Use the frontend-specialist to analyze React components.
Based on those findings, have the test-engineer generate component tests.
Resume Previous Work
Resume agent [agentId] and continue with additional requirements.
Orchestration Patterns
Pattern 1: Comprehensive Analysis
Agents: explorer-agent → [domain-agents] → synthesis
1. explorer-agent: Map codebase structure
2. security-auditor: Security posture
3. backend-specialist: API quality
4. frontend-specialist: UI/UX patterns
5. test-engineer: Test coverage
6. Synthesize all findings
Pattern 2: Feature Review
Agents: affected-domain-agents → test-engineer
1. Identify affected domains (backend? frontend? both?)
2. Invoke relevant domain agents
3. test-engineer verifies changes
4. Synthesize recommendations
Pattern 3: Security Audit
Agents: security-auditor → penetration-tester → synthesis
1. security-auditor: Configuration and code review
2. penetration-tester: Active vulnerability testing
3. Synthesize with prioritized remediation

Antigravity Built-in Agents
These work alongside custom agents:

Purpose |
| Explore |
Haiku |
Fast read-only codebase search |
| Plan |
Sonnet |
Research during plan mode |
| General-purpose |
Sonnet |
Complex multi-step modifications |
Use Explore for quick searches, custom agents for domain expertise.
Synthesis Protocol
After all agents complete, synthesize:
## Orchestration Synthesis
### Task Summary
[What was accomplished]
### Agent Contributions
| Agent | Finding |
| ------------------ | ------------ |
| security-auditor | Found X |
| backend-specialist | Identified Y |
### Consolidated Recommendations
1. **Critical**: [Issue from Agent A]
2. **Important**: [Issue from Agent B]
3. **Nice-to-have**: [Enhancement from Agent C]
### Action Items
- [ ] Fix critical security issue
- [ ] Refactor API endpoint
- [ ] Add missing tests
Best Practices
- Available agents - 17 specialized agents can be orchestrated
- Logical order - Discovery → Analysis → Implementation → Testing
- Share context - Pass relevant findings to subsequent agents
- Single synthesis - One unified report, not separate outputs
- Verify changes - Always include test-engineer for code modifications
Key Benefits
- ✅ Single session - All agents share context
- ✅ AI-controlled - Claude orchestrates autonomously
- ✅ Native integration - Works with built-in Explore, Plan agents
- ✅ Resume support - Can continue previous agent work
- ✅ Context passing - Findings flow between agents
