Subagent-Driven Development FAQs

Question 1

What is Subagent-Driven Development?

Accepted Answer

It is a development methodology where a primary agent manages a plan by delegating specific, isolated tasks to fresh subagents, ensuring each part of the project is implemented with a clean context.

Question 2

How does this prevent context pollution?

Accepted Answer

By spawning a new subagent for every task, the skill ensures that the AI doesn't get confused by previous implementation details or large amounts of irrelevant history, leading to higher accuracy.

Question 3

Is code review automated in this workflow?

Accepted Answer

Yes, after a subagent reports a task as complete, the skill automatically dispatches a code-reviewer subagent to assess strengths and identify any critical or minor issues.

Question 4

What happens if a task fails the code review?

Accepted Answer

The workflow includes a step to apply review feedback, where a follow-up subagent is dispatched to fix identified issues before the task is marked as complete and the process moves to the next item.

Question 5

Can I use this for Test-Driven Development?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. The skill is designed to have subagents follow TDD patterns, writing and verifying tests as part of their specific task implementation.
