## 💡 Usage

Flynn-Agent supports **three operation modes**:

1. **Claude Mode** - Claude simulates agents using Markdown definitions
2. **Python Mode** - Standalone Python orchestration engine
3. **Hybrid Mode** - Claude orchestrates, Python executes (RECOMMENDED)

### Mode 1: Claude Code Integration

After installation, use these commands in Claude Code:

```bash
/agentic     # Activate the Flynn-Agent multi-agent system
/agent       # Load and use a specific agent
/agents      # List all available agents
```

**Example Workflow:**

```bash
# List available agents
/agents

# Use a specific agent
/agent code-writer

# Activate full multi-agent orchestration
/agentic "Implement OAuth2 authentication with security validation"
```

### Mode 2: Python CLI

Use Flynn-Agent programmatically via Python:

```python
from flynn_agent import Orchestrator, TaskSpec

# Define tasks
tasks = [
    TaskSpec(
        task_id="generate",
        intent="generate code",
        payload={"description": "Add two numbers", "function_name": "add"},
        dependencies=[],
    ),
    TaskSpec(
        task_id="test",
        intent="test code",
        payload={"code": "def add(a, b): return a + b"},
        dependencies=["generate"],
    ),
]

# Execute workflow
orchestrator = Orchestrator()
results = await orchestrator.run(tasks)
```

**Or use the CLI:**

```bash
# Run a single agent
flynn-agent run-agent code-writer-agent --task '{
  "task_id": "t1",
  "intent": "write code",
  "payload": {"description": "add two numbers", "function_name": "add"}
}'

# Run a workflow
flynn-agent run-orchestrator --task '[
  {"task_id": "t1", "intent": "generate code", "payload": {...}},
  {"task_id": "t2", "intent": "test code", "dependencies": ["t1"], "payload": {...}}
]'
```

### Mode 3: Hybrid Mode (RECOMMENDED)

Combine the best of both worlds: **Claude's intelligence with Python's reliability**.

**How it works:**
```
User Request
    ↓
Claude - Analyzes & decomposes task
    ↓
Python Engine - Executes workflow (DAG, cycle detection, error handling)
    ↓
Claude - Synthesizes & presents results
```

**Example Workflow:**

```bash
# In Claude Code, use the /agentic command:
/agentic Implement user authentication with tests and security review

# Claude will:
# 1. Analyze the request
# 2. Decompose into tasks (code, test, security)
# 3. Call Python-Engine via Bash tool:
flynn-agent run-orchestrator --task '[
  {"task_id":"t1","intent":"generate code","payload":{...}},
  {"task_id":"t2","intent":"test code","dependencies":["t1"],"payload":{...}},
  {"task_id":"t3","intent":"security analysis","dependencies":["t1"],"payload":{...}}
]'
# 4. Parse results and present to you
```

**Or use the python-engine skill explicitly:**

```python
# In Claude Code
Skill: python-engine

# Then provide your task description
# Claude will use the Python-Engine for execution
```

**Or use the bridge script directly:**

```bash
# Run orchestrator with multiple tasks
~/workspace/Flynn-Agent/scripts/claude-python-bridge.sh run-orchestrator '[
  {"task_id":"t1","intent":"generate code","payload":{"description":"add function","function_name":"add"}},
  {"task_id":"t2","intent":"test code","dependencies":["t1"],"payload":{"code":"..."}}
]'

# Run single agent
~/workspace/Flynn-Agent/scripts/claude-python-bridge.sh run-agent code-writer-agent '{
  "task_id":"t1",
  "intent":"generate code",
  "payload":{"description":"multiply two numbers","function_name":"multiply"}
}'

# List available agents
~/workspace/Flynn-Agent/scripts/claude-python-bridge.sh list-agents
```

**When to Use Hybrid Mode:**

✅ Complex workflows (3+ agents with dependencies)
✅ Need reproducible results (testing, CI/CD)
✅ Parallel execution optimization
✅ Production-grade error handling
✅ Proven reliability (200+ tests, 85% coverage)

**Advantages:**

| Feature | Claude Only | Hybrid Mode |
|---------|-------------|-------------|
| Intelligence | ✅ Full Claude reasoning | ✅ Full Claude reasoning |
| Orchestration | Manual coordination | ✅ DAG execution |
| Cycle Detection | Manual | ✅ Automatic DFS |
| Error Handling | Ad-hoc | ✅ Structured exceptions |
| Testing | None | ✅ 200+ tests |
| Reproducibility | Variable | ✅ Consistent |
| Parallel Execution | Often sequential | ✅ Optimal parallelization |
