agent-coordination

---

name: agent-coordination description: > Agent spawning, lifecycle management, and coordination patterns. Manages 60+ agent types with specialized capabilities. Use when: spawning agents, coordinating multi-agent tasks, managing agent pools. Skip when: single-agent work, no coordination needed.

Agent Coordination Skill

Purpose

Spawn and coordinate agents for complex multi-agent tasks.

Agent Types

Core Development

coder, reviewer, tester, planner, researcher

V3 Specialized

security-architect, security-auditor, memory-specialist, performance-engineer

Swarm Coordination

hierarchical-coordinator, mesh-coordinator, adaptive-coordinator, collective-intelligence-coordinator

Consensus

byzantine-coordinator, raft-manager, gossip-coordinator, consensus-builder

GitHub

pr-manager, code-review-swarm, issue-tracker, release-manager

SPARC

sparc-coord, sparc-coder, specification, pseudocode, architecture, refinement

Commands

Spawn Agent

npx claude-flow agent spawn --type coder --name my-coder

List Agents

npx claude-flow agent list --filter active

Agent Status

npx claude-flow agent status --id agent-123

Agent Metrics

npx claude-flow agent metrics --id agent-123

Stop Agent

npx claude-flow agent stop --id agent-123

Pool Management

npx claude-flow agent pool --size 5 --type coder

Routing Codes

Code	Task	Agents
1	Bug Fix	coordinator, researcher, coder, tester
3	Feature	coordinator, architect, coder, tester, reviewer
5	Refactor	coordinator, architect, coder, reviewer
7	Performance	coordinator, perf-engineer, coder
9	Security	coordinator, security-architect, auditor

Best Practices

1. Use hierarchical topology for coordination
2. Keep agent count under 8 for tight coordination
3. Use specialized agents for specific tasks
4. Coordinate via memory, not direct communication
