# Workflow: Delegated Implementation
Phase-2 delegation strategy. When scope or complexity warrants it, the orchestrator groups related file changes, dispatches each cohesive group to a focused `code-impl` sub-agent, and consumes a concise verification summary instead of re-reading changed files. This keeps the orchestrator context lean and enables safe sequential (or opt-in parallel) execution.
**Announce at start:** "I'm using workflow-delegated-implementation to delegate [N] change groups to code-impl."
## When to invoke
Delegate when **any** of the following is true:
| Condition | Threshold | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| File count | > 5 distinct files | Reading every diff fills orchestrator context |
| Module count | > 2 distinct modules/packages | Cross-module reasoning benefits from focused agents |
| Dependency depth | Changes span ≥ 2 dependency layers | Isolated agents reduce reasoning surface |
| Complexity | Non-trivial logic in ≥ 2 separate concerns | Each concern deserves focused attention |
| Explicit request | Orchestrator decides delegation is cleaner | Orchestrator judgment overrides thresholds |
Not gated by task type — delegation applies equally to features, fixes, and refactors.
## When NOT to invoke
Implement solo (via `superpowers:executing-plans`) when:
- The change touches a single file or a single module.
- The briefing overhead would exceed the implementation time (e.g., a one-line fix).
- All changes are tightly coupled and cannot be cohere
