singleton-sd Agent Orchestration
Use when work spans multiple host issues or multiple coding agents and the main risk is coordination: stale branches, overlapping files, dependency ordering, or PRs/MRs becoming unmergeable as the default branch moves.
This skill coordinates work. It does not replace task-driven-development.
Resolve engineeringHost via .skills/profile or
config/tracker-profiles/. Read the
target repo AGENTS.md for worktree helpers and hub-file rules.
Goals
- Maximise safe parallelism.
- Keep every agent isolated in its own git worktree and branch.
- Keep feature branches current with
origin/<default>. - Do not build on another agent's unmerged branch unless the issue declares that dependency and it is closed/merged.
- Keep CI and mergeability authoritative before handoff.
- Remove stale worktrees after merge or abandon.
Repository workflow
- Never work directly on
main/master. - Fetch origin before starting.
- Create each agent branch/worktree from current
origin/<default>. - Before push: refresh from default branch, resolve conflicts per
AGENTS.md, run relevant tests. - Open/update PR (GitHub) or MR (GitLab) with closing keyword linking the issue.
- Wait for required CI; address feedback on your own PR/MR only.
Branch and worktree naming
Prefer:
<type>/<issue-number>-<kebab-title>
Use the repo's worktree helper when present (for example pnpm worktree:add);
otherwise git worktree add next to the default checkout per
engineering/isolated-worktree.
Dependencies
Respect Depends on: / Blocks: / Parent: (or the repo's equivalent). Do
not start blocked work. Prefer parallel lanes only when file sets do not
substantially overlap hub paths listed in AGENTS.md.
Agent-ready gate
Do not assign implementation agents to issues that lack clear goal, scope, acceptance criteria, or that have unresolved blocking dependencies.
