Parallel tasks

Plan dependencies, follow progress, and bring branches together.

Review the task graph

A plan contains a goal and a task plan. Each task has a stable key, a prompt, and dependency keys. Independent tasks can run together within the scheduler's concurrency limits; dependent tasks wait.

A plan cannot contain duplicate keys, missing dependencies, or a cycle. Keep tasks focused and describe the contract a dependent task should receive.

Manage the board

Use the Kanban board to follow queued, running, completed, failed, and review states. Open a task to inspect its output, session, worktree, and diff.

If a dependency fails, its descendants remain blocked. Fix the cause and explicitly retry. A retry has its own run history; cancellation waits for the active process to release its capacity.
