Coordinator Task Decomposition Quality (CCAR-P)

Design multi-agent systems and orchestration strategies

SUBy Solomon UdohReviewed by Solomon UdohAI-assisted · human-reviewed
In short
Coverage gaps in a multi-agent system's output trace back to the coordinator's initial decomposition, not to the subagents that executed it. A decomposition that names only a subset of the true subtopics leaves the rest uninvestigated by any subagent. Adding more subagents does not fix a narrow decomposition, the decomposition prompt itself must be widened, and reviewing decomposition quality means checking coverage against the full scope before subagents are dispatched.
