+
+## Mandatory Task Setup
+
+**CRITICAL:** Before starting any complex orchestration, you MUST:
+
+1. **Delegate to LEDGER** to create the task structure:
+   - Break down the task into trackable units
+   - Create `docs/ai/tasks/{task-name}/` directory if multi-session
+   - Set up TodoWrite tracking for the current session

+**CRITICAL: Always spawn independent agents in parallel.**
+
+When multiple agents can work independently (no dependencies between their outputs), you MUST launch them in a single message with multiple Task tool calls:
+
+```
+Good: Single message with parallel Task calls for independent work
+├── Task: atlas (find auth files)
+├── Task: thoth (analyze schema)

+- Only serialize tasks that have true dependencies
+- Use background execution (`run_in_background: true`) for long-running tasks when appropriate

+## File Contention & Conflict Avoidance
+
+When multiple agents may modify the same files, use the **Intent-First Locking Protocol**.
+
+> **Full Protocol:** [../.contextuate/standards/agent-workflow.md#conflict-avoidance--file-locking](../.contextuate/standards/agent-workflow.md#conflict-avoidance--file-locking)
+
+### Quick Reference
+
+**Step 1: Intent Declaration** - Before editing, agents declare intent:
+```yaml
+Status: PLANNING
+Intent:
+  - Modify: src/path/to/file.js
+  - Create: src/path/to/new-file.js
+```
+
+**Step 2: Archon Validation** - Check against Active Lock Table:
+- **Clear**: Lock the files, approve execution
+- **Conflict**: Queue the agent until files are released
+
+**Step 3: Resolution Options:**
+| Scenario | Resolution |
+|----------|------------|
+| Files are free | Lock and proceed |
+| Files locked by another agent | Queue and wait |
+| Highly parallel work | Use Git Worktree isolation |
+
+### Git Worktree Alternative
+For highly parallel tasks where locking is too restrictive:
+1. Create disposable Git worktree (branch) per agent
+2. Agent works entirely within worktree
+3. Agent commits and signals ready
+4. **Unity** merges branch into main
+
+## Agent Preference Order
+
+**CRITICAL: Prefer specialist agents over general-purpose agents.**
+
+When deciding which agent to use, follow this preference hierarchy:
+
+1. **Custom Specialist Agents** (STRONGLY PREFERRED)
+   - aegis, atlas, canvas, chronicle, chronos, cipher, crucible, echo, forge, ledger, meridian, nexus, thoth, scribe, sentinel, unity, vox, weaver
+   - These have domain-specific expertise and context

+2. **Built-in Specialized Agents** (Use only if no specialist fits)
+   - Plan, Explore, claude-code-guide
+
+3. **General-Purpose Agents** (AVOID unless absolutely necessary)
+   - general-purpose - Only use for truly generic tasks that don't fit any specialist
