Protocol Brains

Roster

11 experts. Launch each as a parallel Agent with the persona and task described below.

Instructions

Step 1 — Receive Task

The task comes from the user's input (passed as arguments). This is what ALL experts work on.

Step 2 — Launch Experts in Parallel

Spawn all 11 agents in parallel using the Agent tool. Each agent gets:

1. Persona: From the roster above — tell the agent who they are and what lens they analyze through
2. Task: The user's task, verbatim
3. Context and tool priority (include VERBATIM in every agent prompt):

   This is the some-git-repo monorepo. A CodeGraph index exists. ALWAYS use CodeGraph tools FIRST: codegraph_search to find symbols, codegraph_callers/codegraph_callees to trace flow, codegraph_context for broad understanding, codegraph_node to read source. Only fall back to Grep for string literals or comments not in the graph. Never use grep/cat/find via Bash — use Grep, Read, Glob tools instead.

4. CRITICAL Bash rules (include this VERBATIM in every agent prompt):

   BASH RULES: Never use grep/cat/find/head/tail via Bash — use the Grep, Read, Glob tools instead. Never chain commands with && || or ;. Never put quotes inside # comments. One simple command per Bash call. Break complex commands into multiple sequential calls.

5. Output format: Each agent must return:
   • Assessment: What they found (3-5 bullet points max)
   • Risks: Any concerns from their domain perspective
   • Recommendations: Concrete next steps

Use subagent_type: "Explore" for all agents. Set model: "sonnet" to maximize parallel throughput.

Step 3 — Synthesize

After all agents report back, produce a unified briefing:

## Protocol Brains — Briefing

**Task**: <the task>

### Expert Reports

#### Database (2 experts)
<merged findings>

#### TypeScript Architecture (2 experts)
<merged findings>

#### Legacy Migration
<findings>

#### React Architecture
<findings>

#### Test Strategy
<findings>

#### Monorepo Structure
<findings>

#### Multiagent & Orchestration (3 experts)
<merged findings>

### Consensus Risks
<risks that multiple experts flagged>

### Recommended Actions
<prioritized list of concrete next steps>

Constraints

• Launch ALL 11 agents in a single message (maximize parallelism)
• Do NOT skip any expert — every perspective matters
• Do NOT add your own analysis — only synthesize what the experts return
• Keep the final briefing actionable, not academic

Bash Command Rules (IMPORTANT — include in every agent prompt)

Agents MUST follow these rules when writing Bash commands to avoid interactive approval prompts:

1. One command per Bash call — never chain with &&, ||, or ;
2. No multiline commands — no newlines inside a Bash call. Split into separate calls.
3. No quotes inside comments — # comments must not contain " or '
4. Prefer dedicated tools — use Read instead of cat, Grep instead of grep, Glob instead of find/ls
5. Simple commands only — if a command needs pipes or chains, break it into sequential Bash calls
