⚡ Key Takeaways

  • /fleet orchestrates parallel subagents, slashing multi-file task times via smart decomposition.
  • Prompt engineering is key: specifics on files, boundaries, and dependencies unlock true parallelism.
  • Custom agents in .github/agents/ let you specialize for docs, code, etc., amplifying power.
