External Tool Coordination
Overview
When configured via .metaswarm/external-tools.yaml, coordinate external AI tools for delegated implementation and cross-model adversarial review.
When to Use
- When external AI tools are configured and available
- For cross-model adversarial review (writer reviewed by different model)
- When delegating implementation to cheaper external models
- For escalation chains across tools
Capabilities
- Delegated Implementation - Send work units to external AI tools for implementation
- Cross-Model Review - Implementation by Model A, adversarial review by Model B
- Escalation Chains - Tool A -> Tool B -> Claude -> human
- Cost Optimization - Route simpler tasks to cheaper models
Configuration
Requires .metaswarm/external-tools.yaml:
tools:
- name: codex
type: openai
capabilities: [implement, review]
- name: gemini
type: google
capabilities: [implement, review]
escalation:
chain: [codex, gemini, claude, human]
Agents Used

gsd-tools
Central utility skill for GSD operations. Provides config parsing, slug generation, timestamps, path operations, and orchestrates calls to other specialized skills. Acts as the unified entry point that the original gsd-tools.cjs provided via its lib/ modules (commands, config, core, init).
model-profile-resolution
Resolve model profile (quality/balanced/budget) at orchestration start and map agents to specific models. Enables cost/quality tradeoffs by selecting appropriate AI models for each agent role.
verification-suite
Plan structure validation, phase completeness checks, reference integrity verification, and artifact existence confirmation. Provides the structured verification layer ensuring GSD artifacts are well-formed and complete.
state-management
STATE.md reading, writing, and field-level updates. Provides cross-session state persistence via .planning/STATE.md with structured fields for current task, completed phases, blockers, decisions, and quick tasks.
git-integration
Git commit patterns, formats, and conventions for GSD methodology. Provides atomic commits per task, structured commit messages, planning file commits, branch management, and milestone tag operations.
frontmatter-parsing
YAML frontmatter parsing and manipulation for .planning/ documents. Provides read, write, update, query, and validation operations on frontmatter blocks in GSD markdown artifacts.
