Multi-Platform Feature Development Workflow

Build and deploy the same feature consistently across web, mobile, and desktop platforms using API-first architecture and parallel implementation strategies.

[Extended thinking: This workflow orchestrates multiple specialized agents to ensure feature parity across platforms while maintaining platform-specific optimizations. The coordination strategy emphasizes shared contracts and parallel development with regular synchronization points. By establishing API contracts and data models upfront, teams can work independently while ensuring consistency. The workflow benefits include faster time-to-market, reduced integration issues, and maintainable cross-platform codebases.]
