Multi-agent swarm coordination for complex tasks. Use when: 3+ files need changes, new features, refactoring. Skip when: single file edits, simple fixes, documentation.

AI-generated overview

Coordinates multi-agent swarms for complex coding tasks such as multi-file changes, new features, and refactoring.

What it does
This skill provides instructions for coordinating a multi-agent swarm on complex software tasks. It defines when to trigger the swarm (three or more files changing, new features, refactoring) and when to skip it (single-file edits, simple fixes, documentation). It documents commands for initializing a hierarchical swarm, routing a task to agents, and checking swarm status, plus practices for reusing stored patterns.
When to use it
Use it when a coding task spans three or more files, introduces a new feature, or involves refactoring. Skip it for single-file edits, simple fixes, and documentation work.
Requirements
Requires the npx command-line tool and network access to fetch and run the @claude-flow/cli package. No scripts ship with the skill; it is instructions only.

Swarm Orchestration Skill

Purpose

Multi-agent swarm coordination for complex tasks.

When to Trigger

  • 3+ files need changes
  • new features
  • refactoring

When to Skip

  • single file edits
  • simple fixes
  • documentation

Commands

Initialize Swarm

Start a new swarm with hierarchical topology

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli swarm init --topology hierarchical --max-agents 8

Route Task

Route a task to the appropriate agents

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli hooks route --task "[task description]"

Monitor Status

Check the current swarm status

bash
npx @claude-flow/cli swarm status

Best Practices

  1. Check memory for existing patterns before starting
  2. Use hierarchical topology for coordination
  3. Store successful patterns after completion
  4. Document any new learnings
