A cross-platform playbook for designing and running multi-agent teams: six-stage workflow, fallback chains, scenario decision trees, and quality gates for agent
This playbook codifies how to plan, discover, and run multi-agent teams across different runtimes (Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, Cursor). It provides a enforced six-stage workflow (planning, discovery, team design, parallel execution, quality gates, delivery), a three-step skill fallback chain, and scenario-based guidance for when to use simple prompts vs. full team orchestration. The document is prescriptive about transparency, downgrade paths, and verification steps so agents behave honestly about platform capabilities.
Use when a user requests multi-agent coordination, team orchestration, parallel processing, or when tasks would benefit from role-based parallelism (code review at scale, multi-angle research, large data processing). Also useful when mapping Claude Code concepts to platforms that lack identical primitives—this playbook specifies downgrade behavior.
Best for orchestrator-capable agents that can spawn subagents or manage parallel tasks (Claude Code, platform orchestrators, OpenClaw with workspace tasking). Agents that cannot spawn true subagents should follow the playbook's downgrade paths (main-thread staged execution).
