- Daily standup: 15 minutes @ 09:00 AM each morning
- Continuous automated progress tracking

### Days 2-5: Parallel Execution

**Each Machine Independently:**
- Execute assigned phases using Claude Code
- Run `./DISTRIBUTED_EXECUTOR.sh execute`
- Claude Code generates production-ready code for each phase
- Automated testing at phase completion
- Daily progress updates in Slack/Teams

**Daily Standup (15 minutes @ 09:00 AM):**
- Each developer: 2-minute update
  - What I completed yesterday
  - What I'm working on today
  - Any blockers
- Quick problem-solving if needed

**Progress Tracking:**
- Automated: `./DISTRIBUTED_EXECUTOR.sh status` shows real-time progress
- Dashboard: View completion percentage for each machine

### Day 5-6: Packaging & Integration

**Packaging (1.5 hours, parallel):**
- Each machine validates completed phases: 30 minutes
- Run `./DISTRIBUTED_EXECUTOR.sh validate`
- Package outputs: 30 minutes
- Run `./DISTRIBUTED_EXECUTOR.sh package`
- Transfer packages to integration system: 30 minutes

**Integration (6-7 hours, sequential on integration system):**
- **Step 1:** Collect all phases (30 minutes)
  - `./COLLECT_PHASES.sh --source /path/to/packages`
- **Step 2:** Run master integration (2 hours)
  - `./INTEGRATE_ALL.sh`
  - Merges all 29 phases into cohesive codebase
- **Step 3:** Comprehensive testing (3 hours)
  - integration_tester.py runs 5-level test suite:
    1. Phase-level validation
    2. Inter-phase integration tests
    3. End-to-end workflow tests
    4. Performance tests
    5. Security scans
- **Step 4:** Final validation (1 hour)
  - Manual review of test results
  - Smoke testing
  - Documentation verification
- **Success Criteria:** All tests pass, production-ready codebase generated

### Day 6: Completion & Handoff

- Final review meeting (1 hour)
- Handoff documentation to operations team
- Deploy to staging environment
- **SWARMCARE V2.1 ULTIMATE READY FOR PRODUCTION** 🎉
