When to fan out

Build-along · ~8 min at your own keyboard

Ten subagents at 95% each: 0.95^10 = 59% that all ten succeed. Fan out when the task splits into simple, independent chunks; stay single-threaded when steps depend on each other or need judgment. Spin-up time is real too. Small jobs run faster without the ceremony.
