Task Coordination Strategies

When you're coordinating multiple Claude instances on a complex project, this gives you practical patterns for splitting work and managing dependencies. It covers four decomposition strategies (by layer, component, concern, or file ownership), shows you how to design dependency graphs that maximize parallelism, and includes a solid template for writing task descriptions with acceptance criteria and interface contracts. The workload monitoring section is especially useful: it tells you what signals to watch for when work gets imbalanced and gives concrete steps for rebalancing using TaskList and TaskUpdate. If you're running agent teams and struggling with bottlenecks or unclear handoffs, the dependency graph patterns alone will save you time.
