Agent skill
Swarm Orchestration
Orchestrate multi-agent swarms with agentic-flow for parallel task execution, dynamic topology, and intelligent coordination. Use when scaling beyond single agents, implementing complex workflows, or building distributed AI systems.

Swarm Orchestration
What This Skill Does
Orchestrates multi-agent swarms using agentic-flow's advanced coordination system. Supports mesh, hierarchical, and adaptive topologies with automatic task distribution, load balancing, and fault tolerance.
Prerequisites
- agentic-flow v1.5.11+
- Node.js 18+
- Understanding of distributed systems (helpful)
Quick Start
# Initialize swarm
npx agentic-flow hooks swarm-init --topology mesh --max-agents 5
# Spawn agents
npx agentic-flow hooks agent-spawn --type coder
npx agentic-flow hooks agent-spawn --type tester
npx agentic-flow hooks agent-spawn --type reviewer
# Orchestrate task
npx agentic-flow hooks task-orchestrate \
--task "Build REST API with tests" \
--mode parallel
Topology Patterns
1. Mesh (Peer-to-Peer)
// Equal peers, distributed decision-making
await swarm.init({
topology: 'mesh',
agents: ['coder', 'tester', 'reviewer'],
communication: 'broadcast'
});
2. Hierarchical (Queen-Worker)
// Centralized coordination, specialized workers
await swarm.init({
topology: 'hierarchical',
queen: 'architect',
workers: ['backend-dev', 'frontend-dev', 'db-designer']
});
3. Adaptive (Dynamic)
// Automatically switches topology based on task
await swarm.init({
topology: 'adaptive',
optimization: 'task-complexity'
});
Task Orchestration
Parallel Execution
// Execute tasks concurrently
const results = await swarm.execute({
tasks: [
{ agent: 'coder', task: 'Implement API endpoints' },
{ agent: 'frontend', task: 'Build UI components' },
{ agent: 'tester', task: 'Write test suite' }
],
mode: 'parallel',
timeout: 300000 // 5 minutes
});
Pipeline Execution
// Sequential pipeline with dependencies
await swarm.pipeline([
{ stage: 'design', agent: 'architect' },
{ stage: 'implement', agent: 'coder', after: 'design' },
{ stage: 'test', agent: 'tester', after: 'implement' },
{ stage: 'review', agent: 'reviewer', after: 'test' }
]);
Adaptive Execution
// Let swarm decide execution strategy
await swarm.autoOrchestrate({
goal: 'Build production-ready API',
constraints: {
maxTime: 3600,
maxAgents: 8,
quality: 'high'
}
});
Memory Coordination
// Share state across swarm
await swarm.memory.store('api-schema', {
endpoints: [...],
models: [...]
});
// Agents read shared memory
const schema = await swarm.memory.retrieve('api-schema');
Advanced Features
Load Balancing
// Automatic work distribution
await swarm.enableLoadBalancing({
strategy: 'dynamic',
metrics: ['cpu', 'memory', 'task-queue']
});
Fault Tolerance
// Handle agent failures
await swarm.setResiliency({
retry: { maxAttempts: 3, backoff: 'exponential' },
fallback: 'reassign-task'
});
Performance Monitoring
// Track swarm metrics
const metrics = await swarm.getMetrics();
// { throughput, latency, success_rate, agent_utilization }
Integration with Hooks
# Pre-task coordination
npx agentic-flow hooks pre-task --description "Build API"
# Post-task synchronization
npx agentic-flow hooks post-task --task-id "task-123"
# Session restore
npx agentic-flow hooks session-restore --session-id "swarm-001"
Best Practices
- Start small: Begin with 2-3 agents, scale up
- Use memory: Share context through swarm memory
- Monitor metrics: Track performance and bottlenecks
- Enable hooks: Automatic coordination and sync
- Set timeouts: Prevent hung tasks
Troubleshooting
Issue: Agents not coordinating
Solution: Verify memory access and enable hooks
Issue: Poor performance
Solution: Check topology (use adaptive) and enable load balancing
