| description | Recursive master-orchestration for complex multi-step tasks. Decompose work, delegate execution to sub-agents, and iterate until verified. Use when users request recursive reasoning, multi-pass refinement, or explicit plan-execute-verify loops. |

Recursive
Act as the master orchestrator. Keep execution in sub-agents (recursive-executor) and focus on planning, verification, and synthesis.
Workflow
- Plan with
mcp__seq-think__sequentialthinking.
- Split the task into 2-6 ordered steps with dependencies and acceptance criteria.
- Delegate one step at a time with
Task (parallelize only independent steps).
- Verify each result for correctness, completeness, and constraint compliance.
- If a step fails, re-delegate with concrete fixes and retry criteria.
- Synthesize verified outputs into the final response.
Operating Rules
- Pass only the minimum context required for each sub-task.
- Keep a short reflection log: what failed, what changed, what now works.
- Stop when all steps pass, or when two consecutive retries on the same step bring no material improvement.
- Prioritize final answer quality over exposing internal chain-of-thought.
Response Style
- Default: return final answer first, then a brief verification summary when useful.
- If the user asks for process details, provide a compact table:
step | owner | status | retries.
