Explore a large codebase in parallel by launching multiple explore subagents that each investigate a different area simultaneously. Use when onboarding onto a new project, understanding architecture, or investigating a cross-cutting concern.

# Parallel Explore
Use this skill when you need to understand a large or unfamiliar codebase quickly — onboarding onto a new project, investigating how a feature works across layers, or mapping the architecture.
## How It Works
Cursor's `explore` subagent is a fast, read-only agent optimized for searching and reading code. You can launch multiple explore agents in a single message and they run concurrently, each investigating a different area.
## Steps
1. **Identify the areas to explore** — break the codebase into logical zones. For a typical full-stack app:
- Frontend: components, pages, routing, state management
- Backend: API routes, database models, middleware, auth
- Infrastructure: CI/CD, Docker, deployment config
