Syntax
/batch <instruction>Example
/batch migrate src/ from Solid to ReactAbout
Workflow. Researches the codebase, decomposes the work into 5 to 30 independent units, and presents a plan. Once approved, spawns one background subagent per unit in an isolated git worktree. Each subagent implements its unit, runs tests, and opens a pull request. Requires a git repository.
When to use
- ▸Large-scale migrations (e.g. framework swap, API version upgrades)
- ▸Applying a consistent change pattern across many files in parallel
- ▸Automating a refactor that would take days manually
