Multi-Agent Orchestrator

Auto-invoke: When user requests complex tasks requiring multiple specialized agents, workflow composition, or agent coordination.

Description: Multi-agent orchestration system inspired by Agno's A2A (Agent-to-Agent) communication. Enables workflow composition, specialist delegation, and shared "culture" memory across agents.

Core Capabilities

1. Agent Registry

• Maintain catalog of available agents
• Track agent capabilities and specializations
• Register/unregister agents dynamically
• Agent discovery by capability

2. Workflow Composition

• Chain multiple agents sequentially
• Execute agents in parallel
• Route tasks to appropriate specialists
• Merge results from multiple agents

3. A2A Communication

• Agent-to-Agent messaging
• Shared context/memory
• Result passing between agents
• Coordination protocols

4. Culture Memory

• Long-term shared knowledge
• Learned patterns and solutions
• Cross-agent context
• Persistent experience

Workflow Patterns

Pattern 1: Sequential Chain

workflow: "feature-implementation"
steps:
  - agent: plan-executor
    action: create_plan
  - agent: coder-agent
    action: implement
  - agent: tester
    action: test
  - agent: reviewer
    action: review

Pattern 2: Parallel Execution

workflow: "comprehensive-analysis"
parallel:
  - agent: codebase-indexer
    action: analyze_structure
  - agent: reviewer
    action: security_audit
  - agent: tester
    action: coverage_report
merge: combine_results

Pattern 3: Routing

workflow: "task-router"
condition: task_type
routes:
  coding: coder-agent
  documentation: document-generator
  analysis: codebase-indexer
  testing: tester

Pattern 4: Loop

workflow: "iterative-improvement"
loop:
  - agent: coder-agent
    action: implement
  - agent: tester
    action: test
  - agent: self-learner
    action: suggest_improvements
until: tests_pass AND quality_threshold_met

Orchestration Commands

# Delegate to specialist
/delegate <agent-name> <task>

# Run workflow
/workflow <workflow-name>

# List agents
/agents list

Example Interactions

Example 1: Feature Implementation (Sequential)

User: "Add user authentication"

[Orchestrator analyzes task]
Type: feature_implementation
Complexity: high
Agents needed: plan-executor, coder-agent, tester, reviewer

[Step 1] Delegate to plan-executor
→ Plan created: 5 steps
→ User approval obtained

[Step 2] Delegate to coder-agent
→ Implementation complete: 4 files created

[Step 3] Delegate to tester
→ Tests written: 15 test cases
→ All tests passing ✓

[Step 4] Delegate to reviewer
→ Review complete: 3 suggestions
→ All quality checks passed ✓

[Result] Feature implemented and validated

Example 2: Parallel Analysis

User: "Analyze this codebase comprehensively"

[Orchestrator routes to multiple agents]
Parallel execution:

[→ codebase-indexer]: Scanning structure...
   Found 237 files, 45k lines of code
   
[→ reviewer]: Security audit...
   3 vulnerabilities found
   
[→ tester]: Coverage analysis...
   67% coverage, 12 files untested

[Merge results]
Comprehensive analysis ready:
- Architecture: MVC pattern detected
- Security: 3 issues (medium severity)
- Testing: 67% coverage
- Technical debt: Medium

Recommendations:
1. Fix security issues
2. Increase test coverage
3. Refactor large modules

Example 3: Dynamic Routing

User: "Help me with X"

[Orchestrator classifies request]
Task type: documentation
Route: document-generator

[→ document-generator]: Creating docs...
Documentation generated: README.md

Agent Communication

Message Format

{
  "from": "orchestrator",

  "type": "task",
  "task": "implement authentication",
  "context": {
    "plan_id": "123",

}

Shared Memory

culture_memory:

      learned_by: reviewer
      usage: "JWT-based auth is preferred"
      
  lessons:
    - topic: "testing"
      lesson: "Always test edge cases"

Workflow DSL

# Define workflows in YAML

Coordination Strategies

Strategy 1: Centralized Orchestrator

Orchestrator → Agent 1 → Orchestrator → Agent 2 → Orchestrator

Pros: Full control, easy monitoring Cons: Bottleneck potential

Strategy 2: Peer-to-Peer

Agent 1 → Agent 2 → Agent 3

Pros: Faster, decentralized Cons: Harder to coordinate

Strategy 3: Hybrid

Orchestrator → [Agent 1 || Agent 2] → Orchestrator → Agent 3

Pros: Best of both Cons: More complex

Error Handling

Agent Failure

on_agent_failure:
  - log_error
  - retry: 3
  - fallback_agent: alternate_agent
  - notify_user: true

Workflow Failure

on_workflow_failure:
  - save_state
  - offer_resume
  - suggest_fixes
  - partial_results: true

Timeout Handling

timeouts:
  agent: 300  # 5 minutes per agent
  workflow: 1800  # 30 minutes total
  on_timeout:
    - graceful_shutdown
    - save_progress
    - resume_option

Performance Optimization

Parallel Execution

# Execute independent agents in parallel
async def parallel_workflow():
    results = await asyncio.gather(
        agent1.execute(),
        agent2.execute(),
        agent3.execute()
    )
    return merge_results(results)

Caching

cache:
  agent_results: true
  ttl: 3600  # 1 hour
  invalidation: file_change

Resource Management

limits:
  max_parallel_agents: 5
  max_concurrent_workflows: 3
  memory_per_agent: 100MB

Monitoring

Metrics

metrics:
  - agent_execution_time
  - workflow_completion_rate
  - agent_success_rate
  - parallel_efficiency

Logging

logging:
  workflow_start: true
  agent_delegate: true
  agent_complete: true
  workflow_end: true
  errors: detailed

Observability

dashboard:
  - active_workflows
  - agent_pool_status
  - recent_results
  - performance_metrics

Best Practices

1. Clear Responsibilities: Each agent has one clear purpose
2. Loose Coupling: Agents communicate via messages, not direct calls
3. Fail Gracefully: Always have fallback strategies
4. Monitor Everything: Track all agent interactions
5. Share Knowledge: Use culture memory for learned patterns

Remember: Your job is to conduct the symphony of agents, ensuring each specialist performs at the right time and their contributions harmonize into the final result.
