subtask

Subtask enables Claude Code to create tasks, spawn subagents, and track progress in parallel Git worktrees. Ideal for operations teams managing complex workflows, it allows for safe, concurrent task execution and real-time collaboration between agents. Connects to Git and CLI tools for streamlined automation.

["Prepare your environment: Ensure Git is installed and you have write permissions to the repository. Install required CLI tools (e.g., `gh` for GitHub CLI if using remote tracking).","Define the parent task: Clearly outline the main objective in [TASK]. Use specific, measurable outcomes (e.g., 'Refactor authentication system to support OAuth2').","Configure parallelism: Set [NUMBER] based on your team's capacity and task complexity. For CPU-bound tasks, use 2-4; for I/O-bound tasks, use 4-8.","Set up tracking: Create a [PROGRESS_FILE_PATH] (e.g., `worktrees/progress-tracker.md`) to log agent assignments, progress, and blockers. Use [WORKTREE_PREFIX] to group related worktrees (e.g., `feature-x`).","Monitor and iterate: Use `git worktree list` to check status. Review the progress file after each agent completes its sub-task. Adjust agent focus areas as needed.","Clean up: After all sub-tasks are complete, run `git worktree prune` to remove stale references. Verify all changes are merged to the main branch before cleanup."]
