Three skills disagreed on who dispatches
verify-task, andexecute-task(itself a subagent) was told to dispatch it — impossible on Claude Code, where a subagent cannot spawn another subagent. The result was either self-verification inside the implementer's context (defeating the independence the design exists for) or a mid-chain stall.Control-flow model
start-ritus, includingticket-review/address-feedback/debug) owns every dispatch in the execute → verify → re-verify loop.execute-task,verify-task,pr-review) return a report and never dispatch further subagents.verify-task's Subagent dispatch instructions is now the single source of truth; every other skill references it.Changes
execute-task— dropped the "Dispatch verify-task subagent" process step and its## Nextrestatement; the executor returns a report.verify-task— marked as the canonical description of the dispatch loop.ticket-review(+templates/task-files.md) — orchestrating session dispatchesverify-taskafter eachexecute-taskreturns, instead of "each execute-task dispatches its own verify-task".pr-review— Request-Changes fix loop reports findings back rather than dispatchingexecute-task/verify-task/pr-reviewfrom within the subagent.address-feedback— clarified it runs in the orchestrating session and thatexecute-taskreturns a report.start-ritus— stated that only the orchestrating session dispatches; removed the contradictoryaddress-feedbackrow from the Subagent configs table (it is an orchestrator, not a dispatched subagent).Out of scope
The issue also suggested raising the verifier's model tier above
haiku. Left unchanged — it is not an acceptance criterion, and the gate's value comes from an independent clean context rather than raw model strength; a tier change is an explicit design call for maintainers.
