name	cybernetic-serial-subagent-workflow
description	Use when an approved cybernetic execution policy selects Serial subagent-driven work, serial-single-active mode, and one active bounded implementer at a time.

Cybernetic Serial Subagent Workflow

Preconditions

The approved plan must record:

• Selected agent workflow: cybernetic-serial-subagent-workflow;
• Subagent execution mode: serial-single-active;
• Max concurrent subagents: 1;
• an ordered work-package sequence and integration check after each package.

Workflow

1. The main agent selects the next approved package and constructs a bounded context packet from approved artifacts.
2. Dispatch exactly one target-work subagent. The subagent may modify only its authorized paths and may not edit approved control JSON.
3. On return, the main agent inspects actual changes and evidence, integrates them, and re-evaluates stale state before dispatching another package.
4. Route defects to their owner and repeat only when the artifact changed or a new counterexample was found.
5. After all packages, run the approved whole-candidate verification and review.

Test Policy

Do not require implementer-authored TDD or per-package tests. Use checks selected by the approved plan and preserve counterexamples that justify durable regression coverage.

Boundaries

• Never have more than one target-work subagent active.
• Independent pre-goal review is not this execution workflow.
• The main agent owns integration, progress recording, and completion claims.
