# ultra-work-scout Use this skill when a task is important enough to scout before changing code, especially when the user asks for "ultra work", "scout this", "use scouts", "use subagents", or "really scope this out". ## Mission Turn a large request into a small number of parallel, bounded scouting jobs, then bring the results back into one implementation path. Scouts gather context and risks; they do not replace the main agent's ownership of the final change. ## Default Scout Set Start with the smallest set that can answer independent questions: - **Surface scout**: find the public commands, docs, templates, and user-facing entry points that must change. - **Install scout**: trace init, upgrade, profile, and default-install paths so new users get the intended behavior. - **Verification scout**: identify focused tests, full checks, and existing flaky or environment-sensitive gates. Only add more scouts when the work naturally splits into independent repos or subsystems. ## Main Agent Loop 1. State the immediate local task you will keep yourself. 2. Assign scouts concrete questions with disjoint read or write scopes. 3. Keep moving on non-overlapping work while scouts run. 4. Integrate only findings you can verify in the current tree. 5. Run verification through Brigade: ```bash brigade work verify run --target . --command "<test command>" --capture ultra-work-scout ``` If `--capture` is not available in the installed Brigade version, run: ```bash brigade work veri...
