Turn serial into parallel. Turn hours into minutes.** --- ## What can it do? | Scenario | Example | Speedup | |----------|---------|---------| | **Parallel research** | Search 5 frameworks simultaneously, each writes a report | ~65% ⚡ | | **Multi-model compare** | Ask Claude, Gemini, Kimi the same question at the same time | ~50% ⚡ | | **Code pipeline** | Plan → Code → Review, auto hand-off in sequence | Quality ↑ | | **Batch processing** | Translate / analyze / summarize multiple docs in parallel | Scales linearly | --- ## ⚡ Get started in 30 seconds Just say something like: - "Research LangChain, CrewAI, and AutoGen in parallel" - "Have multiple agents search these topics and write a combined report" - "Compare how Claude and Gemini answer this question" - "Use multi-agent mode to do this research" --- ## 🎭 Interaction Style — How to Talk to the User This is the recommended pattern. Every multi-agent run must follow this interaction pattern. ### Step 0 — Announce skill activation FIRST **⚠️ Iron rule: The activation announcement must be your FIRST reply after receiving the task — before reading any files, before investigating, before spawning.** **Why this matters**: Reading files, researching background, and spawning all take time. If you do those first, users see long silence. Worse: context compression can happen during that time, and the announcement will never be sent. **Correct order**: Receive task → Send announcement immediately → Then read files / spawn / wait The very first thing to say when this skill is triggered — before any planning or spawning: ``` 🐝 **claw-multi-agent 已唤醒** 多智能体并行模式启动，我来组建 Agent 小队处理这个任务。 ``` This tells the user the skill is active and sets expectations for what's about to happen. ### Before spawning — announce the plan Right after the activation announcement, present the plan BEFORE calling sessions_spawn: ``` 🚀 [N]个方向同时开搞，全面覆盖你的问题。 📋 任务规划： 🔍 研究员A（GLM）— [一句话任务描述] 🔍 研究员B（GLM）— [一句话任务描述] 📊 分析师（Kimi）— 先等前[N]个结果，单独召唤（note when sequential） 模式：🎯 指挥官模式（联网搜索） 预计耗时：~[X]s（[N] Agent 并行[，分析师串行跟进]） 正在派出 Agent 小队... ``` **Role emoji reference:** | Role | Emoji | Example | |------|-------|---------| | Researcher | 🔍 | 🔍 研究员A（GLM）— Research XX | | Analyst | 📊 | 📊 分析师（Kimi）— Deep comparison | | Writer | ✍️ | ✍️ 写作者（Gemini）— Draft the report | | Coder | 💻 | 💻 程序员（Kimi）— Implement the logic | | Reviewer | 🔎 | 🔎 审核员（GLM）— Quality check | | Planner | 📋 | 📋 规划师（Sonnet）— Break down tasks | **Key rules:** - ✅ Always list each agent with: emoji + role + **model name** + one-line task - ✅ State the mode (指挥官/流水线/混合) and estimated time - ✅ End announcement with: `正在派出 Agent 小队...` - ✅ Note sequential agents as: "先等前N个结果，单独召唤" - ❌ Never silently call sessions_spawn without announcing ### While waiting — brief note After spawning, say one line: ``` ⏳ 子 Agent 已全部出发，等结果回来... ``` ### After results — structured output (not raw dump) **Never paste sub-agent raw output directly.** Always digest and restructure by content logic — NOT by agent order. **Recommended output order:** ``` 1. 执行统计卡 ← 先让用户知道跑了什么 2. 核心结论（3-5条最重要发现）← 最有价值的放最前面 3. 分主题展开细节（按内容逻辑组织，不按子Agent顺序）← 读起来是一篇完整文章 4. 下一步行动建议 ← 落地结尾 ``` **统计卡格式：** ``` ## 📊 执行统计 | Agent | 模型 | 耗时 | 状态 | |-------|------|------|------| | 🔍 研究员A | GLM | 58s | ✅ | | 🔍 研究员B | GLM | 62s | ✅ | | 📊 分析师 | Kimi | 45s | ✅ | 串行需要约 165s → 并行实际 62s，节省 **62%** ⚡ ``` **❌ Wrong — agent order:** ``` 子Agent1的结果... 子Agent2的结果... 子Agent3的结果... ← 读者要自己拼图，体验差 ``` **✅ Right — content logic:** ``` ## 核心结论 1. 最重要发现A（来自多个Agent综合） 2. 最重要发现B ... ## 详细分析：[主题1] ...（整合所有相关Agent的内容） ## 详细分析：[主题2] ... ## 下一步建议 ... ``` **The main agent rewrites everything in its own words.** Sub-agent outputs are raw material, not the final answer. ### After results — deliver the report (channel-aware) **Always save to file first. Then deliver based on the current channel.** ```python # Step 1: Always save to file first write("/workspace/projects/{topic-slug}/report.md", content) ``` **Then choose delivery method by channel:** | Channel | Delivery method | |---------|----------------| | **feishu** + has `feishu-all-operations` skill | Create Feishu doc → send link (best UX) | | **feishu** + no Feishu skill | `message(filePath=..., filename="report.md")` — send as attachment | | **Discord / Telegram / Slack** | `message(message=...)` — Markdown renders normally | | **Other / unknown** | Save file + tell the user the path | **Why this matters:** Feishu chat does NOT render Markdown. Sending raw Markdown text shows `##`, `|---|` symbols. Always use attachment or doc link on Feishu. ```python # Feishu (no Feishu doc skill): send as attachment message(action="send", filePath="/workspace/projects/{topic-slug}/report.md", filename="report.md") # Discord/Telegram: send markdown directly message(action="send", message=report_content) ``` **End with one line:** ``` 需要调整某个方向，或推送到飞书文档吗？ ``` **Rules:** - ✅ Always save `.md` file first — regardless of channel - ✅ Check current channel before deciding how to send - ❌ Never paste >300 words of Markdown text on Feishu — it won't render - ❌ Never just say "报告已保存至 /path/xxx" — user can't open server paths - ❌ Never ask "要不要我帮你整理成文档？" — just do it ### Sequential vs parallel — analyst must wait for researchers **Critical:** Agents spawned in the same round run in parallel and share NO context with each other. ``` ❌ Wrong: spawn researcher-A + researcher-B + analyst all at once → analyst has no data, returns empty ✅ Right: Round 1: spawn researcher-A + researcher-B (parallel, independent) Wait for both to return... Round 2: main agent consolidates research results → then either: main agent writes analysis itself → or: spawn analyst with research results injected as context ``` **Best practice: Any agent that depends on another agent's output should be spawned in a later round, after collecting the dependency.** --- ## 🤖 Model Selection Guide — Which Model for Which Role Always pick the right model for each agent. State the model explicitly in the announcement. ### Model roster | 模型 | 别名 | 特点 | 适合角色 | |------|------|------|---------| | `glm` | GLM | 便宜、速度快、中文好 | 搜索、简单调研、状态检查 | | `kimi` | Kimi | 长上下文（128k）、代码强 | 深度分析、代码、长文整合 | | `gemini` | Gemini | 创意好、多模态 | 写作、文案、图像理解 | | `sonnet` | Claude Sonnet | 均衡、工具调用稳 | 复杂推理、规划、审核 | | `opus` | Claude Opus | 最强推理 | 极复杂分析、架构设计 | ### Role → Model mapping (default) | 角色 | 默认模型 | 原因 | |------|---------|------| | 🔍 研究员 / Researcher | **GLM** | 轻量搜索，够用且便宜 | | 📊 分析师 / Analyst | **Kimi** | 长上下文，处理大量资料 | | ✍️ 写作者 / Writer | **Gemini** | 创意写作效果最好 | | 💻 程序员 / Coder | **Kimi** | 长上下文代码理解 | | 🔎 审核员 / Reviewer | **GLM** | 简单判断，不需重炮 | | 📋 规划师 / Planner | **Sonnet** | 结构化规划能力强 | | 🧐 批评者 / Critic | **Sonnet** | 逻辑严谨，挑战假设 | ### When to override defaults - 任务很简单 → 降级到 GLM（省成本） - 需要最高质量 → 升级到 Opus - 用户明确指定模型 → 照用户说的来 - 多模型对比场景 → 每个 Agent 用不同模型，在公告里说明 ### Always announce the model In the pre-spawn announcement, every agent line must include the model: ``` ✅ 这样：🔍 研究员A（GLM）— 调研 LangChain ❌ 这样：🔍 研究员A — 调研 LangChain ``` --- ## Step 0: Always plan first (dynamic agent count) **Never hardcode how many agents to spawn.** The right number depends on the task complexity. Always start with a planning step: ``` 1. Analyze the task → identify subtopics / dimensions 2. Decide: how many agents? which roles? which mode? 3. Spawn accordingly (could be 2, could be 10) 4. Consolidate results ``` **Example planning output:** ``` Task: "Research the top AI agent frameworks" → Plan: 5 researchers (one per framework) + 1 analyst for comparison → Mode: Orchestrator (needs web search) → Spawn: 5 parallel sub-agents ``` **The number of agents should match the task, not a template.** --- ## Three modes — auto-routed by intent **You don't need to say which mode.** Just describe the task. The skill reads these two signals: 1. **Need web search / real-time info?** → use sessions_spawn (has tools) 2. **Want multiple draft versions to compare?** → spawn parallel writers ``` User says anything ↓ Wants multiple versions / drafts / angles? YES ──→ Also needs web search? │ YES → 🔀 Hybrid Mode (search first, then N drafts) │ NO → 🔄 Pipeline Mode (N drafts in parallel, pure text) │ NO ──→ Needs web search / file ops? YES → 🎯 Orchestrator Mode (sessions_spawn, parallel) NO → 🔄 Pipeline Mode (pure text, faster) ``` **Trigger signals the skill listens for:** | Signal | Examples | Mode triggered | |--------|---------|---------------| | Multi-draft intent | "几个版本", "多个角度", "让我挑", "各自写", "different styles" | Pipeline or Hybrid | | Search intent | "搜索", "最新", "调研", "联网", "search", "latest" | Orchestrator or Hybrid | | Both | "搜索后给我几版报告", "research then write multiple drafts" | **Hybrid** | | Neither | "翻译", "分析", "写作", plain text tasks | Pipeline | You can also check with the router directly: ```bash python scripts/router.py mode "搜索竞品资料，帮我写3个版本的分析" # → 🔀 HYBRID python scripts/router.py mode "调研LangChain并写一份报告" # → 🎯 ORCHESTRATOR python scripts/router.py mode "用三个角度分析这个方案" # → 🔄 PIPELINE ``` --- ## 🎯 Orchestrator Mode (with tools, truly parallel) Sub-agents launched via `sessions_spawn`. Each has full OpenClaw tools: web search, file read/write, code execution. **⚡ How parallelism works:** Call multiple `sessions_spawn` in the **same tool-call round** — OpenClaw executes them simultaneously. All sub-agents run at once; the main agent collects all results when they finish. ``` Same round → parallel execution: sessions_spawn(task="Search LangChain...") ──┐ sessions_spawn(task="Search CrewAI...") ──┤→ all run simultaneously sessions_spawn(task="Search AutoGen...") ──┘ sessions_spawn(task="Search LangGraph...") ─┘ ↓ (all finish, main agent receives all 4 results) Main agent consolidates → writes full report ``` **Sequential = spawn one, wait for result, then spawn next.** Use this only when a later task depends on an earlier result (e.g. write report AFTER research is done). **How to spawn — always include role, model hint, and what to return:** ```python # Parallel research: spawn all 4 in the same round → they run simultaneously sessions_spawn({ "task": "[CONTEXT] Comparing AI agent frameworks for a tech team report.\n\n[YOUR TASK] Search LangChain: architecture, pros/cons, GitHub stars, latest version. Return 5 bullet points ≤100 words each. Do NOT write a full report.", "label": "🔍 researcher-langchain [model: default]" }) sessions_spawn({ "task": "[CONTEXT] Same report.\n\n[YOUR TASK] Search CrewAI: architecture, pros/cons, GitHub stars, latest version. Return 5 bullet points ≤100 words each.", "label": "🔍 researcher-crewai [model: default]" }) sessions_spawn({ "task": "[CONTEXT] Same report.\n\n[YOUR TASK] Search AutoGen: architecture, pros/cons, GitHub stars, latest version. Return 5 bullet points ≤100 words each.", "label": "🔍 researcher-autogen [model: default]" }) sessions_spawn({ "task": "[CONTEXT] Same report.\n\n[YOUR TASK] Search LangGraph: architecture, pros/cons, GitHub stars, latest version. Return 5 bullet points ≤100 words each.", "label": "🔍 researcher-langgraph [model: default]" }) # All 4 run in parallel → when all return, main agent consolidates and writes report ``` **Mixed: parallel then sequential** (most common pattern): ```python # Phase 1: parallel research (spawn all at once) sessions_spawn({"task": "[CONTEXT] ...\n\n[TASK] Search LangChain. 5 bullets ≤100 words.", "label": "🔍 researcher-langchain"}) sessions_spawn({"task": "[CONTEXT] ...\n\n[TASK] Search CrewAI. 5 bullets ≤100 words.", "label": "🔍 researcher-crewai"}) sessions_spawn({"task": "[CONTEXT] ...\n\n[TASK] Search AutoGen. 5 bullets ≤100 words.", "label": "🔍 researcher-autogen"}) # Phase 2: after all 3 return → main agent writes report (sequential, depends on research) # (main agent does this directly, no need to spawn a writer) ``` **Key rules:** - ✅ **Same round = parallel**: spawn multiple agents at once for independent tasks - ✅ **Sequential**: spawn one, wait for result, then spawn next — only when tasks depend on each other - ✅ Sub-agents return **summaries only** (≤100 words per point) - ✅ Main agent **writes the full report** (avoids token limit failures) - ✅ Label each agent clearly: role + what model it's using - ❌ Don't ask a sub-agent to both search AND write a long report --- ## 🔄 Pipeline Mode (pure text, any task) Runs agents via Python CLI. **No web search, but works for any pure-text task**: writing, analysis, translation, multi-model comparison, brainstorming, code generation. ```bash cd ~/.openclaw/skills/claw-multi-agent # Parallel: multiple agents tackle different angles simultaneously python run.py --mode parallel \ --agents "fast:🔍 researcher:summarize the pros of microservice architecture" \ "fast:🔍 researcher:summarize the cons of microservice architecture" \ "fast:🔍 researcher:list real-world companies using microservices and outcomes" \ "smart:📊 analyst:compare microservices vs monolith for a 10-person startup" \ --aggregation synthesize # Sequential: chain agents, each builds on the previous output python run.py --mode sequential \ --agents "fast:📋 planner:break down how to build a REST API in Python" \ "smart:💻 coder:implement the API based on the plan above" \ "fast:🔎 reviewer:review the code for bugs and security issues" \ --aggregation last # Auto-route: router classifies task and picks tiers automatically python run.py --auto-route --task "write a technical blog post about GRPO vs PPO" # Dry-run: preview the plan without executing python run.py --dry-run \ --agents "fast:researcher:research X" "smart:writer:write report" ``` **Pipeline mode works great for:** - Multi-angle analysis (spawn one agent per dimension) - Multi-model comparison (same task, different models) - Code pipeline (plan → code → review) - Batch writing (translate/summarize N documents in parallel) --- ## 🔀 Hybrid Mode (search + multi-draft) Best of both worlds: sub-agents search the web (with tools), then multiple writers generate parallel drafts from the research. **When it kicks in:** user wants both real-time research AND multiple versions to compare. ``` Phase 1 (Orchestrator — with tools, parallel): sessions_spawn(search topic A) ──┐ sessions_spawn(search topic B) ──┤ → all run simultaneously sessions_spawn(search topic C) ──┘ ↓ research summaries collected Phase 2 (Pipeline — pure text, parallel): openclaw agent (writer style 1) ──┐ openclaw agent (writer style 2) ──┤ → all run simultaneously openclaw agent (writer style 3) ──┘ ↓ 3 draft versions returned Main agent: compare drafts → pick best or synthesize ``` **CLI usage:** ```bash # Auto: router detects hybrid intent and runs both phases python run.py --mode hybrid --task "调研主流AI框架，给我3个不同风格的对比报告" --num-drafts 3 # Auto-mode: let router decide the mode automatically python run.py --auto-mode --task "搜索竞品资料后写几个版本的分析" ``` **In conversation (sessions_spawn approach):** ```python # Phase 1: parallel research (spawn all at once) sessions_spawn({"task": "[CONTEXT] ...\n\n[TASK] Search LangChain. 5 bullets.", "label": "🔍 research-langchain"}) sessions_spawn({"task": "[CONTEXT] ...\n\n[TASK] Search CrewAI. 5 bullets.", "label": "🔍 research-crewai"}) sessions_spawn({"task": "[CONTEXT] ...\n\n[TASK] Search AutoGen. 5 bullets.", "label": "🔍 research-autogen"}) # After all 3 return → Phase 2: main agent writes 3 draft versions itself # (or spawn 3 pipeline agents with research as context) ``` --- ## Smart Router Built-in task classifier. Auto-picks the right tier based on keywords: ```bash python scripts/router.py classify "write a Python web scraper" # → Tier: CODE (routes to smart model) python scripts/router.py classify "research the latest LLM papers" # → Tier: RESEARCH (routes to fast model) python scripts/router.py spawn --json --multi "research X and write a report" # → splits into 2 tasks: RESEARCH + CREATIVE ``` | Tier | Model | Used for | |------|-------|---------| | `FAST` | default (light) | Simple queries, status, translation, search | | `CODE` | default (smart) | Programming, debugging, implementation | | `RESEARCH` | default (light) | Research, search, compare, survey | | `CREATIVE` | default (smart) | Writing, articles, documentation | | `REASONING` | default (best) | Architecture, logic, complex analysis | --- ## contextSharing: Give sub-agents background Sub-agents start as fresh sessions — they don't know your goal. Add a `[CONTEXT]` block. **Pattern 1: recent** (recommended — works for 95% of cases) ``` [CONTEXT] User is comparing AI agent frameworks for a team report. Audience: engineers. [YOUR TASK] Search LangChain pros and cons. Return 5 bullet points ≤100 words each. ``` **Pattern 2: summary** (sequential tasks — pass prior results forward) ``` [PRIOR FINDINGS] - LangChain: richest ecosystem, steep curve - CrewAI: clean role separation... [YOUR TASK] Based on above, search AutoGen. Return 3 unique points not covered above. ``` **Pattern 3: full** (complex background — let agent read a file) ``` [CONTEXT FILE] Read /workspace/research/context.md for full background. [YOUR TASK] Search latest Test-Time Compute Scaling advances. Return 3 summaries. ``` **Reuse context across parallel agents:** ```python BG = "Researching RL post-training for ML engineers. Topics: GRPO/DAPO/PPO, veRL." sessions_spawn({"task": f"[CONTEXT] {BG}\n\n[TASK] Search GRPO vs PPO benchmarks. 5 bullets ≤100 words.", "label": "🔍 researcher-grpo [model: default]"}) sessions_spawn({"task": f"[CONTEXT] {BG}\n\n[TASK] Search DAPO design. 5 bullets ≤100 words.", "label": "🔍 researcher-dapo [model: default]"}) sessions_spawn({"task": f"[CONTEXT] {BG}\n\n[TASK] Search veRL architecture. 5 bullets ≤100 words.", "label": "🔍 researcher-verl [model: default]"}) ``` --- ## Execution summary — always output this After every multi-agent run, print a standard card: ``` ## 📊 Execution Summary Mode: 🎯 Orchestrator Mode (sessions_spawn, with tools) | Agent | Role | Model | Time | Status | |-------|------|-------|------|--------| | 🔍 researcher-langchain | Researcher | default | 22s | ✅ | | 🔍 researcher-crewai | Researcher | default | 19s | ✅ | | 🔍 researcher-autogen | Researcher | default | 24s | ✅ | | 🔍 researcher-langgraph | Researcher | default | 21s | ✅ | | ✍️ main (consolidate) | Writer | default | 38s | ✅ | Agents spawned: 4 | Parallel time: ~24s | Serial equivalent: ~86s | Saved: ~62s (72%) ``` **Always include:** - Mode (Orchestrator / Pipeline + Sequential/Parallel) - Each agent's role emoji + name + model used - Actual elapsed time per agent - Total parallel time vs serial equivalent --- ## Preset roles | Role | Emoji | Best for | |------|-------|---------| | `researcher` | 🔍 | Web search, info gathering | | `writer` | ✍️ | Reports, documentation, articles | | `coder` | 💻 | Code writing, debugging, implementation | | `analyst` | 📊 | Data analysis, comparison, statistics | | `reviewer` | 🔎 | Code / content review, QA | | `planner` | 📋 | Task planning, decomposition | | `critic` | 🧐 | Risk analysis, devil's advocate | --- ## ⚠️ Gotchas ### Gotcha 0: Reading files before announcing (most common mistake) Investigating context before sending the activation announcement causes long silence and risks losing the announcement entirely due to context compression. - ❌ Receive task → read operators.py → read README → announce → spawn - ✅ Receive task → **announce immediately** (can say "analyzing task...") → read files → spawn ### Gotcha 1: Sub-agent output token limit Sub-agents have a ~4096 token output cap. Exceeded → tool args truncated → file writes silently fail. - ❌ "search AND write a 2000-word report" - ✅ Sub-agent returns summaries; **main agent writes the report** ### Gotcha 2: Orchestrator Mode has no tools in Pipeline Mode `python run.py` processes have no `web_search`, `exec`, etc. - ❌ Pipeline mode: "search the latest news on X" - ✅ Anything needing real web access → Orchestrator Mode ### Gotcha 3: Parallel agents can't depend on each other Agents spawned in the same round run simultaneously. - ❌ Agent-2: "based on Agent-1's results..." - ✅ Parallel = independent; sequential = chained ### Gotcha 4: Don't hardcode agent count Match agents to the task, not to a template. - ❌ Always spawn exactly 3 agents - ✅ Plan first, then decide: simple task → 2 agents, complex → 8+ agents --- ## Pipeline mode quick reference ```bash python run.py --mode parallel|sequential --agents "tier_or_model:🎭role:task description" # repeatable, any number --aggregation synthesize|compare|concatenate|last --timeout 300 --dry-run # preview without executing --auto-route # router picks tiers automatically --list-models # show current model config ``` | Aggregation | Effect | |-------------|--------| | `synthesize` | Main agent summarizes all outputs (default) | | `compare` | Side-by-side of each agent's output | | `concatenate` | Outputs joined in order | | `last` | Final agent's output only (sequential) |
