Subagent-Driven Development
Execute implementation plans by dispatching a fresh subagent per task, with two-stage review after each: spec compliance review first, then code quality review.
Core Principle
Fresh subagent per task + two-stage review (spec then quality) = high quality, fast iteration.
When to Use
Use when:
- You have an implementation plan
- Tasks are mostly independent
- You want to stay in the current session
If tasks need different sessions, use executing-plans skill instead.
Two-Stage Review
Stage 1: Spec Compliance
- Does it meet the requirements?
- Does it solve the right problem?
Stage 2: Code Quality
- Is the code clean and maintainable?
- Are tests comprehensive?
- Is documentation adequate?
This separation ensures both correctness and quality.

Seven AI Coding CLIs, Six Months: No Matter How Strong the Model, Work Needs Supervision
Claude Code, Codex, opencode, pi, omp and DeepSeek Harness all have personalities. After six months of deep use I run a division of labor: pi for the fastest cheapest reviews, omp for complex PRs, DeepSeek Harness on V4 Flash for high-frequency low-cost review, and Claude Code, Qoder and Cursor for writing. No matter how strong the model, work needs supervision — ideally from an independent third party.
