team-dev — Multi-Agent Development Workflow

Command-only invocation: triggered exclusively by the team-dev slash command. disable-model-invocation: true, user-invocable: true. Not auto-invoked by the model.

User provides requirements → main orchestrates 6 specialist agents via sessions_spawn through staged gates. Each agent self-identifies their role and acts only on their stages. All results flow back to main for next-stage dispatch.

Complexity Assessment

main evaluates at launch and declares S/M/L before execution begins.

Dimension	S (Simple)	M (Medium)	L (Large)
Lines of Code	<200	200–1000	>1000
File Count	1–3	4–10	>10
Modules/Interfaces	Single module	2–3 modules	Multi-module/service
External Dependencies	0–1	2–3	Multiple
Security Sensitivity	None	Low	Medium/High
Requirement Ambiguity	Clear	Minor ambiguities	Multiple clarifications needed

Process Stages by Complexity

Stage	S	M	L	Input	Output	Executor
0: Assessment + Constitution	✅	✅	✅	User requirements	Complexity assessment (S/M/L), constitution.md (L-level), `docs/journey.md` (from `main/journey-template.md`), `docs/todo.md` (from `main/todo-template.md`), examples/ (M+ best-practice search)	main
1: Spec + Style Guide	✅	✅	✅	User requirements, complexity level	spec.md, style-guide.md (include non-functional requirements from §Non-Functional Requirements — all 8 items)	main
2: Pre-Audit + Clarify	△①	✅	✅	spec.md, style-guide.md	Audit report, clarification items	spawn auditor (S: main self-check)
3: Main Gate Check	—	✅	✅	Audit report, spec.md, clarified requirements	Go / no-go decision, updated spec	main
4: Design + Testable Items	△②	✅	✅	spec.md, style-guide.md	design.md, testable items list (S: verbal description only). Coder proactively follows NFRs in design: #3 exception coverage — document exception handling strategy; #4 non-intrusive framework — document module boundaries, decouple business logic from framework; #5 pluggable & testable — document test strategy, stub/mock points	spawn coder
4b: Design Review (🔴 gate)	—	✅	✅	design.md, spec.md	Review report → approved / needs revision	spawn reviewer
5: Analyze Consistency	—	✅	✅	design.md, spec.md, style-guide.md	Consistency analysis report	main
6: Implementation	✅	✅	✅	design.md, testable items, style-guide.md	Source code (implementation). Coder proactively follows NFRs in code: #2 structured logging — implement DEBUG/INFO/WARN/ERROR levels; #3 exception coverage — catch and handle all exception paths; #7 precise error location — logs include file, line number, call stack, and context state	spawn coder
6b: Code Review	—	✅	✅	Source code, design.md	Code review report → pass / needs fix. Reviewer also covers NFR #3 (exception coverage), #4 (non-intrusive framework), #5 (pluggable & testable): check exception handling completeness, framework non-intrusion into business logic, and module testability/stub/mock ease	spawn reviewer
7: Testing	✅	✅	✅	Source code, testable items	Test report must include: defects, coverage percentage, AND uncovered execution paths analysis (which lines/paths are not covered and why). Tester must run coverage tools (see §Non-Functional Requirements #8)	spawn tester
8: Final Audit + Checklist	△③	✅	✅	All stage outputs	Audit report + checklist (S: simplified ~8–12 items). Auditor checklist must include NFR compliance: #1 docs-code sync, #2 structured logging levels, #3 exception path coverage, #4 framework non-intrusion, #5 pluggability/testability/mock, #6 background alerting + on-site logs, #7 precise error location, #8 coverage tool execution + report pass/fail. Each NFR item in the checklist must include specific evidence (e.g., file path, line number, log sample) — not just ✅/❌ symbols.	spawn auditor
9: Release + README	✅	✅	✅	All approved deliverables	Tagged release, README.md	main
10: Publicist Polish	—	—	✅	All deliverables, audit report	Polished documentation	spawn publicist
11: Retrospective	—	—	✅	Full session history, all deliverables	retrospective.md	main

① S-level pre-audit: main reads projects/ma/auditor/audit-report-template.md as the self-check template and fills it in directly. ② S-level design: main verbally describes the design approach and records it in docs/journey.md. ③ S-level checklist: main reads the checklist template and simplifies it to ~8–12 items.

M+ projects: stage 0 includes best-practice search → collect into examples/. See runtime skill §4.0.5.

examples/ is free-form, supporting .html and .md files. Content is best-practice reference material: code snippets, design patterns, API usage examples.

Git Workflow

Project directory: projects/<project-name>/
All operations are local — no remote push required
Single branch main — no feature branches needed
main runs git init + initializes project structure at Stage 0
coder works directly on the main branch at Stage 4/6, running git add && git commit
No merges needed — all operations are linear on main
No remote push/pull — all agents inherit the same workspace via spawn

Core Red Lines

From main/AGENTS.md §1.1. Inviolable — self-check before every action.

#	Rule	Correct Approach
1	Main does not code	Delegate to coder + reviewer
2	Main does not write docs	Delegate to publicist
3	Main does not audit	Delegate to auditor
4	Main does not test	Delegate to tester
5	Main serves the user	Respond promptly, don't get buried in tasks

Non-Functional Requirements

These requirements apply from design through delivery. main communicates them at Stage 1, coder follows them in Stages 4 & 6, reviewer checks #3–#5 at Stage 6b, auditor verifies all 8 at Stage 8, and tester runs coverage (#8) at Stage 7.

The following quality attributes apply across all process stages and all agents. Violations are treated as defects.

1. Documentation Freshness

Docs must be kept up-to-date with code changes. Stale docs are treated as bugs — they mislead the team and degrade the project's bus factor.

2. Structured Logging

Log output must be leveled (DEBUG / INFO / WARN / ERROR) and complete. Every significant operation, decision point, and error path must produce a log entry. Unstructured print() output is not a substitute.

3. Exception Coverage

All exception paths must be caught and handled. No silent failures. Unhandled exceptions that propagate to the user or crash a process are unacceptable regardless of severity.

4. Non-Intrusive Framework

Base frameworks and infrastructure must not leak into business logic. Business code should remain framework-agnostic, testable in isolation, and portable across infrastructure changes.

5. Pluggable & Testable Design

Code and modules must be easy to plug and unplug. Dependency injection, stubs, and mocks must be straightforward. Every module must be independently testable without requiring the full application stack.

6. Background Alerting

Runtime exceptions in background or daemon processes must:

Trigger alerts (not silently swallowed)
Preserve on-site logs for forensic analysis

7. Precise Error Location

Logs must enable precise error location. At minimum, include: file name, line number, call stack, and relevant contextual state at the point of failure.

8. Coverage-Driven Testing

Testing must use coverage tools (e.g., coverage.py, JaCoCo, Istanbul/nyc) to identify untested execution paths. Coverage gaps are treated as test deficiencies — they must be documented or closed before delivery.

Agent Roster

Agent	Role	Workspace
main 🎓🏅📋	Advisor · Coach · PM — sole user interface	`workspace`
coder 🏗️	Architect · Driver — design + coding	`workspace-coder`
reviewer 🔍	Inspector · Navigator — code review	`workspace-reviewer`
tester 🧪	Tester — black-box + white-box + perf	`workspace-tester`
auditor 🔒	Auditor · Gatekeeper — pre-audit + final audit	`workspace-auditor`
publicist ✍️	Writer — technical docs	`workspace-publicist`

Agents have their own workspaces (workspace-coder, workspace-tester, etc.) which store their AGENTS.md and SOUL.md identity files. When spawned via sessions_spawn(agentId: "coder"), the system auto-loads these identities from the agent workspace (§Agent Identity Loading below). For code work, spawn inherits main's workspace, giving the subagent access to projects/, docs/, and source code. projects symlinks are maintained for non-spawn scenarios where an agent needs direct filesystem access to shared projects.

Communication Model (v3)

Core Principle

main is the sole dispatcher. All agent work is initiated by sessions_spawn from main. Results flow back to main, who decides the next step. No agent communicates directly with another agent.

User ⇄ main
main → sessions_spawn → agent (any)
agent completes → result auto-announced to main
main evaluates → sessions_spawn → next agent

Spawn Inheritance

Every sessions_spawn creates a fresh subagent session.
For code access: the subagent inherits main's workspace — sees the same projects/ directory, docs/, and source code as main.
For identity: when agentId is specified (e.g., sessions_spawn(agentId: "coder")), the system loads AGENTS.md/SOUL.md from the agent's own workspace (workspace-coder/). See §Agent Identity Loading below.
Subagent sessions are ephemeral — destroyed after completion, results stored in session history.

Agent Identity Loading

When main dispatches work via sessions_spawn(agentId: "coder"):

The system resolves the agent's workspace — e.g., ~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/.
It automatically loads AGENTS.md and SOUL.md from that workspace into the subagent's context.
This is why the initialization flow (§Interactive Initialization Flow) writes AGENTS.md/SOUL.md to the agent's own workspace — these files are the agent's identity and are loaded every time the agent is spawned.
Simultaneously, the subagent inherits main's workspace for code access.

Why two workspaces? The agent's own workspace provides its identity (role, personality, rules). Main's inherited workspace provides the code and assets the agent works on. Together they give the spawned agent both its purpose and its materials.

v2 → v3 Migration Summary

Aspect	v2 (old)	v3 (current)
Dispatch mechanism	`sessions_send` (inter-agent messaging)	`sessions_spawn` (main-initiated)
Agent workspaces	Independent (`workspace-coder`, etc.)	Inherited from main via spawn
filesystem access	Required `projects` symlinks per agent	Automatic — spawn inherits parent FS
coder ↔ tester	Direct interaction (bug loop)	main spawns tester → result → main spawns coder (fix) → main spawns tester (regression)
coder ↔ reviewer	Direct interaction (review loop)	main spawns reviewer → result → main decides: pass or spawn coder (fix) → main spawns reviewer (re-review)
auditor → coder	Direct command (audit issues)	main receives audit → main spawns coder (fix) → main spawns auditor (re-audit)
tester → auditor	Direct via main relay (`sessions_send`)	main receives test report → main spawns auditor
publicist	Only via main	Only via main (unchanged — was already main-only)

Loop Closure under v3

Bug Loop (coder ↔ tester):

main spawns coder (implement)
  → coder completes, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns tester (test)
  → tester finds bugs, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns coder (fix bugs)
  → coder completes, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns tester (regression)
  → loop until all pass or 3-round cap reached

Review Loop (coder ↔ reviewer):

main spawns coder (design/code)
  → coder completes, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns reviewer (review)
  → reviewer finds issues, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns coder (fix)
  → coder completes, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns reviewer (re-review)
  → loop until pass or 2-round cap reached

NFR issues discovered during review follow the same review loop: main spawns coder to fix, then main spawns reviewer to re-review. No separate process is needed.

Audit Fix Loop:

main spawns auditor (final audit)
  → auditor finds issues, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns coder (fix issues)
  → coder completes, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns auditor (re-audit)
  → loop until all pass or main escalates to user

Agent Availability Detection & Fallback

Trigger timing: When the user triggers /team-dev or mentions "team development" or "multi-agent development", this check is the first thing main executes.

Startup Check: Verify Agent Registration

Before dispatching any agent, main checks via openclaw agents list whether all of the following 5 agents are registered:

#	Agent ID	Role
1	`coder`	Architect · Coding
2	`tester`	Testing · Black-box + White-box + Performance
3	`auditor`	Audit · Gatekeeper
4	`publicist`	Writer · Technical Documentation
5	`reviewer`	Review · Code Review

Run command:

openclaw agents list

main parses the output and verifies each of the above 5 agent IDs.

Note: This check targets agent instances (i.e., independent agents registered via openclaw agents add), not template files. main itself is not within scope — main is the current runtime environment.

Three Possible Outcomes

Outcome 1: All Present ✅

All 5 agents are registered. main proceeds directly to §Process Stages with no initialization needed.

Outcome 2: Partial Missing ⚠️

main lists the missing agents and enters §Interactive Initialization Flow.

Outcome 3: All Missing ❌

None of the 5 agents are registered. main lists the full missing list and enters §Interactive Initialization Flow.

Interactive Initialization Flow

If any agent is missing, main must not fall back to single-agent mode directly. Instead, execute the following steps:

Step 1: Report Missing Agents, Ask User

main explicitly lists the missing agents and presents three options:

🔍 The following agents are not registered:

Agent Status
coder ❌ Not registered
reviewer ❌ Not registered
tester ❌ Not registered
auditor ✅ Ready
publicist ✅ Ready

I can initialize the missing agents for you in one go.

Choose:

Initialize — Auto-create missing agents, write behavior guides and personality files, set up project connections

Go Solo — Don't create agents; main takes over all missing roles

Cancel — Abort the current team development flow

main waits for the user's choice.

Step 2a: User Chooses "Initialize"

main initializes each missing agent in sequence. Using coder as an example, the full flow is:

① Create Agent Instance

openclaw agents add coder

This creates an independent agent workspace under ~/.openclaw/, e.g.:

~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/

② Write AGENTS.md — Behavior Guide

Template source (priority): skills/team-dev/coder/AGENTS.md → fallback to projects/ma/coder/AGENTS.md if not found
Write target: ~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/AGENTS.md

Operation flow:

main attempts to read skills/team-dev/coder/AGENTS.md (priority)
       ↓ if not found
main reads projects/ma/coder/AGENTS.md (fallback)
       ↓
main writes to ~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/AGENTS.md

③ Write SOUL.md — Personality Profile

Template source (priority): skills/team-dev/coder/SOUL.md → fallback to projects/ma/coder/SOUL.md if not found
Write target: ~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/SOUL.md

Operation flow:

main attempts to read skills/team-dev/coder/SOUL.md (priority)
       ↓ if not found
main reads projects/ma/coder/SOUL.md (fallback)
       ↓
main writes to ~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/SOUL.md

④ Create Project Symlink

Allow the agent to access the shared project directory:

ln -s ~/.openclaw/workspace/projects ~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/projects

This way, when the agent is dispatched, it can access project code and docs in main's workspace via projects/.

⑤ Repeat for All Missing Agents

Repeat steps ①–④ for each missing agent (reviewer, tester, auditor, publicist). Full mapping:

Agent	AGENTS.md Template Source (priority)	SOUL.md Template Source (priority)	Write Target Workspace	Symlink Command
coder	`skills/team-dev/coder/AGENTS.md` → `projects/ma/coder/AGENTS.md`	`skills/team-dev/coder/SOUL.md` → `projects/ma/coder/SOUL.md`	`~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/`	`ln -s ~/.openclaw/workspace/projects ~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/projects`
reviewer	`skills/team-dev/reviewer/AGENTS.md` → `projects/ma/reviewer/AGENTS.md`	`skills/team-dev/reviewer/SOUL.md` → `projects/ma/reviewer/SOUL.md`	`~/.openclaw/workspace-reviewer/`	`ln -s ~/.openclaw/workspace/projects ~/.openclaw/workspace-reviewer/projects`
tester	`skills/team-dev/tester/AGENTS.md` → `projects/ma/tester/AGENTS.md`	`skills/team-dev/tester/SOUL.md` → `projects/ma/tester/SOUL.md`	`~/.openclaw/workspace-tester/`	`ln -s ~/.openclaw/workspace/projects ~/.openclaw/workspace-tester/projects`
auditor	`skills/team-dev/auditor/AGENTS.md` → `projects/ma/auditor/AGENTS.md`	`skills/team-dev/auditor/SOUL.md` → `projects/ma/auditor/SOUL.md`	`~/.openclaw/workspace-auditor/`	`ln -s ~/.openclaw/workspace/projects ~/.openclaw/workspace-auditor/projects`
publicist	`skills/team-dev/publicist/AGENTS.md` → `projects/ma/publicist/AGENTS.md`	`skills/team-dev/publicist/SOUL.md` → `projects/ma/publicist/SOUL.md`	`~/.openclaw/workspace-publicist/`	`ln -s ~/.openclaw/workspace/projects ~/.openclaw/workspace-publicist/projects`

Note: AGENTS.md and SOUL.md are written to the agent's own workspace root directory — these are the rule files the agent actually follows. Template sources have two paths: skills/team-dev/<agent>/ (runtime copy, priority) and projects/ma/<agent>/ (template source, fallback). Both are identical in content — skills/team-dev/ is a deployed copy of the corresponding template from projects/ma/. Templates should not be modified; they are only used for initialization writes.

Step 2a Finish: Report Ready, Continue Flow

After all agents are initialized, main informs the user:

✅ All missing agents have been initialized.

Agent AGENTS.md SOUL.md projects symlink
coder ✅ ✅ ✅
reviewer ✅ ✅ ✅

Team is ready. Starting team development workflow.

main then proceeds directly to §Process Stages without further user confirmation.

Step 2b: User Chooses "Go Solo"

main falls back to single-agent mode, taking over missing roles directly:

Missing Role	How main Takes Over
coder	main handles design and coding
reviewer	main handles code quality review
tester	main handles testing
auditor	main handles audit and checklist
publicist	main handles documentation

When main plays any agent role, it must first read that role's SOUL.md template (try skills/team-dev/{agent}/SOUL.md, fallback to projects/ma/{agent}/SOUL.md if not found) to understand the role's responsibilities, behavioral style, and constraints. For example, to play coder: try skills/team-dev/coder/SOUL.md (priority), fallback to projects/ma/coder/SOUL.md, and so on.

Red Line: Even when falling back to single-agent mode, main must still honor the spirit of Core Red Lines — "main does not code / test / audit / write docs" — executing thoroughly without skipping steps. The only difference is that main becomes the executor.

main explicitly informs the user:

⚠️ Currently in single-agent mode. The following agents are not registered: [list]. All roles are handled by main. You can have me initialize agents for full multi-agent collaboration at any time.

Step 2c: User Chooses "Cancel"

main confirms and terminates:

Team development flow cancelled. Say "/team-dev" anytime to restart.

Hybrid Scenario: Partial Agent Readiness

If only some agents are registered (e.g., coder and tester are ready, the rest missing), main follows the same interactive flow:

List ready agents: e.g., "coder ✅, tester ✅"
List missing agents: e.g., "reviewer ❌, auditor ❌, publicist ❌"
Present the same three options: Initialize missing / Go Solo / Cancel

If user chooses "Initialize": only initialize the missing agents; do not touch already-ready agents (do not overwrite existing AGENTS.md and SOUL.md). If user chooses "Go Solo": ready agents are dispatched normally via sessions_spawn; missing roles are handled by main.

Integrity Check for Ready Agents

For agents already present in openclaw agents list, main should also quickly verify that key files in their workspace are intact:

Check Item	Path	Action if Missing
AGENTS.md	`~/.openclaw/workspace-{agent}/AGENTS.md`	Rewrite from `skills/team-dev/{agent}/AGENTS.md` (priority) or `projects/ma/{agent}/AGENTS.md` (fallback)
SOUL.md	`~/.openclaw/workspace-{agent}/SOUL.md`	Rewrite from `skills/team-dev/{agent}/SOUL.md` (priority) or `projects/ma/{agent}/SOUL.md` (fallback)
projects symlink	`~/.openclaw/workspace-{agent}/projects`	Run `ln -s ~/.openclaw/workspace/projects ~/.openclaw/workspace-{agent}/projects`

If an agent is registered but key files are missing (e.g., the agent was manually cleaned up), main should auto-repair and mark it as "⚠️ Restored" rather than "✅" in the initialization report.

Agent Behavior Guide Sync

Design purpose: Each agent's AGENTS.md/SOUL.md consists of two parts — MA framework unified rules (MA:CORE) + agent personalization. This section defines the merge mechanism, ensuring the framework rules evolve uniformly while preserving each agent's accumulated personalization.

Core Principle: Merge, Don't Overwrite

Each agent's AGENTS.md and SOUL.md is divided into two regions:

MA Core region — enclosed by  and  markers. These are MA framework-managed rules that ensure team collaboration consistency.
Custom region — the free area outside the markers. Agents record notes, preferences, lessons learned, and personal habits here. This content belongs to the agent and must not be touched during initialization.

During initial setup, the agent may not have these files yet — simply write them. But on subsequent updates, only replace the content between the MA:CORE markers, preserving everything the agent has accumulated outside the markers.

Template Sources

The MA framework has two sets of template paths, identical in content but with different purposes:

skills/team-dev/<agent>/ — Runtime copy, used by the agent initialization flow (read with priority).
projects/ma/<agent>/ — Template source, used for behavior guide sync. Both sets have identical content.

Behavior guide sync uses the following projects/ma/<agent>/ paths:

Agent	AGENTS.md Template	SOUL.md Template
main	`projects/ma/main/AGENTS.md`	`projects/ma/main/SOUL.md`
coder	`projects/ma/coder/AGENTS.md`	`projects/ma/coder/SOUL.md`
reviewer	`projects/ma/reviewer/AGENTS.md`	`projects/ma/reviewer/SOUL.md`
tester	`projects/ma/tester/AGENTS.md`	`projects/ma/tester/SOUL.md`
auditor	`projects/ma/auditor/AGENTS.md`	`projects/ma/auditor/SOUL.md`
publicist	`projects/ma/publicist/AGENTS.md`	`projects/ma/publicist/SOUL.md`

Operation Flow

Step 1: main Studies the Project

main reads the following files to fully understand the MA framework:

projects/ma/SKILL.md — This document, to understand execution flow and merge mechanism
projects/ma/README.md — Team overview, quick start
projects/ma/docs/multi-agent-design.md — Architecture design: agent design, communication matrix, three-document system, configuration reference

Step 2: main Merges AGENTS.md

For each agent (coder, reviewer, tester, auditor, publicist), main executes:

Read projects/ma/<agent>/AGENTS.md — this is the role template
Send to the corresponding agent via sessions_spawn, with a message like:
Please merge the following AGENTS.md template into your workspace.
- If an AGENTS.md already exists in your workspace: only update the content between  and , keeping custom content outside the markers unchanged
- If no AGENTS.md exists yet: write it directly
- Reply to confirm when done
The agent receives and performs the merge operation in the current session
The agent replies to main confirming completion

Step 3: main Merges SOUL.md

The flow is the same as AGENTS.md, but with extra care:

SOUL.md records the agent's personality traits. Agents accumulate unique character and experience through long-term work.
Initial setup: write the template content directly
Subsequent updates: only sync newly added personality traits from the template. Never overwrite the agent's accumulated personalization.
If the agent has already developed its own understanding and expression of its personality, main should respect and preserve it.

Step 4: Verification

main confirms with each agent one by one:

Please read your AGENTS.md and SOUL.md, and confirm that the MA:CORE regions are correctly synced and custom content is intact.

Each agent replies to confirm. Initialization complete.

This design ensures: framework rules evolve uniformly, agent personalization persists continuously — the two run in parallel without conflict.

examples/ is free-form, supporting .html and .md files. Content is best-practice reference material: code snippets, design patterns, API usage examples.

Git Workflow

Project directory: projects/<project-name>/
All operations are local — no remote push required
Single branch main — no feature branches needed
main runs git init + initializes project structure at Stage 0
coder works directly on the main branch at Stage 4/6, running git add && git commit
No merges needed — all operations are linear on main
No remote push/pull — all agents inherit the same workspace via spawn

Core Red Lines

From main/AGENTS.md §1.1. Inviolable — self-check before every action.

#	Rule	Correct Approach
1	Main does not code	Delegate to coder + reviewer
2	Main does not write docs	Delegate to publicist
3	Main does not audit	Delegate to auditor
4	Main does not test	Delegate to tester
5	Main serves the user	Respond promptly, don't get buried in tasks

Non-Functional Requirements

The following quality attributes apply across all process stages and all agents. Violations are treated as defects.

1. Documentation Freshness

Docs must be kept up-to-date with code changes. Stale docs are treated as bugs — they mislead the team and degrade the project's bus factor.

2. Structured Logging

3. Exception Coverage

All exception paths must be caught and handled. No silent failures. Unhandled exceptions that propagate to the user or crash a process are unacceptable regardless of severity.

4. Non-Intrusive Framework

Base frameworks and infrastructure must not leak into business logic. Business code should remain framework-agnostic, testable in isolation, and portable across infrastructure changes.

5. Pluggable & Testable Design

6. Background Alerting

Runtime exceptions in background or daemon processes must:

Trigger alerts (not silently swallowed)
Preserve on-site logs for forensic analysis

7. Precise Error Location

Logs must enable precise error location. At minimum, include: file name, line number, call stack, and relevant contextual state at the point of failure.

8. Coverage-Driven Testing

Agent Roster

Agent	Role	Workspace
main 🎓🏅📋	Advisor · Coach · PM — sole user interface	`workspace`
coder 🏗️	Architect · Driver — design + coding	`workspace-coder`
reviewer 🔍	Inspector · Navigator — code review	`workspace-reviewer`
tester 🧪	Tester — black-box + white-box + perf	`workspace-tester`
auditor 🔒	Auditor · Gatekeeper — pre-audit + final audit	`workspace-auditor`
publicist ✍️	Writer — technical docs	`workspace-publicist`

Agents have their own workspaces (workspace-coder, workspace-tester, etc.) which store their AGENTS.md and SOUL.md identity files. When spawned via sessions_spawn(agentId: "coder"), the system auto-loads these identities from the agent workspace (§Agent Identity Loading below). For code work, spawn inherits main's workspace, giving the subagent access to projects/, docs/, and source code. projects symlinks are maintained for non-spawn scenarios where an agent needs direct filesystem access to shared projects.

Communication Model (v3)

Core Principle

main is the sole dispatcher. All agent work is initiated by sessions_spawn from main. Results flow back to main, who decides the next step. No agent communicates directly with another agent.

User ⇄ main
main → sessions_spawn → agent (any)
agent completes → result auto-announced to main
main evaluates → sessions_spawn → next agent

Spawn Inheritance

Every sessions_spawn creates a fresh subagent session.
For code access: the subagent inherits main's workspace — sees the same projects/ directory, docs/, and source code as main.
For identity: when agentId is specified (e.g., sessions_spawn(agentId: "coder")), the system loads AGENTS.md/SOUL.md from the agent's own workspace (workspace-coder/). See §Agent Identity Loading below.
Subagent sessions are ephemeral — destroyed after completion, results stored in session history.

Agent Identity Loading

When main dispatches work via sessions_spawn(agentId: "coder"):

The system resolves the agent's workspace — e.g., ~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/.
It automatically loads AGENTS.md and SOUL.md from that workspace into the subagent's context.
This is why the initialization flow (§Interactive Initialization Flow) writes AGENTS.md/SOUL.md to the agent's own workspace — these files are the agent's identity and are loaded every time the agent is spawned.
Simultaneously, the subagent inherits main's workspace for code access.

Why two workspaces? The agent's own workspace provides its identity (role, personality, rules). Main's inherited workspace provides the code and assets the agent works on. Together they give the spawned agent both its purpose and its materials.

v2 → v3 Migration Summary

Aspect	v2 (old)	v3 (current)
Dispatch mechanism	`sessions_send` (inter-agent messaging)	`sessions_spawn` (main-initiated)
Agent workspaces	Independent (`workspace-coder`, etc.)	Inherited from main via spawn
filesystem access	Required `projects` symlinks per agent	Automatic — spawn inherits parent FS
coder ↔ tester	Direct interaction (bug loop)	main spawns tester → result → main spawns coder (fix) → main spawns tester (regression)
coder ↔ reviewer	Direct interaction (review loop)	main spawns reviewer → result → main decides: pass or spawn coder (fix) → main spawns reviewer (re-review)
auditor → coder	Direct command (audit issues)	main receives audit → main spawns coder (fix) → main spawns auditor (re-audit)
tester → auditor	Direct via main relay (`sessions_send`)	main receives test report → main spawns auditor
publicist	Only via main	Only via main (unchanged — was already main-only)

Loop Closure under v3

Bug Loop (coder ↔ tester):

main spawns coder (implement)
  → coder completes, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns tester (test)
  → tester finds bugs, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns coder (fix bugs)
  → coder completes, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns tester (regression)
  → loop until all pass or 3-round cap reached

Review Loop (coder ↔ reviewer):

main spawns coder (design/code)
  → coder completes, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns reviewer (review)
  → reviewer finds issues, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns coder (fix)
  → coder completes, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns reviewer (re-review)
  → loop until pass or 2-round cap reached

NFR issues discovered during review follow the same review loop: main spawns coder to fix, then main spawns reviewer to re-review. No separate process is needed.

Audit Fix Loop:

main spawns auditor (final audit)
  → auditor finds issues, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns coder (fix issues)
  → coder completes, result auto-announced to main
  → main spawns auditor (re-audit)
  → loop until all pass or main escalates to user

Agent Availability Detection & Fallback

Trigger timing: When the user triggers /team-dev or mentions "team development" or "multi-agent development", this check is the first thing main executes.

Startup Check: Verify Agent Registration

Before dispatching any agent, main checks via openclaw agents list whether all of the following 5 agents are registered:

#	Agent ID	Role
1	`coder`	Architect · Coding
2	`tester`	Testing · Black-box + White-box + Performance
3	`auditor`	Audit · Gatekeeper
4	`publicist`	Writer · Technical Documentation
5	`reviewer`	Review · Code Review

Run command:

openclaw agents list

main parses the output and verifies each of the above 5 agent IDs.

Note: This check targets agent instances (i.e., independent agents registered via openclaw agents add), not template files. main itself is not within scope — main is the current runtime environment.

Three Possible Outcomes

Outcome 1: All Present ✅

All 5 agents are registered. main proceeds directly to §Process Stages with no initialization needed.

Outcome 2: Partial Missing ⚠️

main lists the missing agents and enters §Interactive Initialization Flow.

Outcome 3: All Missing ❌

None of the 5 agents are registered. main lists the full missing list and enters §Interactive Initialization Flow.

Interactive Initialization Flow

If any agent is missing, main must not fall back to single-agent mode directly. Instead, execute the following steps:

Step 1: Report Missing Agents, Ask User

main explicitly lists the missing agents and presents three options:

🔍 The following agents are not registered:

Agent Status
coder ❌ Not registered
reviewer ❌ Not registered
tester ❌ Not registered
auditor ✅ Ready
publicist ✅ Ready

I can initialize the missing agents for you in one go.

Choose:

Initialize — Auto-create missing agents, write behavior guides and personality files, set up project connections

Go Solo — Don't create agents; main takes over all missing roles

Cancel — Abort the current team development flow

main waits for the user's choice.

Step 2a: User Chooses "Initialize"

main initializes each missing agent in sequence. Using coder as an example, the full flow is:

① Create Agent Instance

openclaw agents add coder

This creates an independent agent workspace under ~/.openclaw/, e.g.:

~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/

② Write AGENTS.md — Behavior Guide

Template source (priority): skills/team-dev/coder/AGENTS.md → fallback to projects/ma/coder/AGENTS.md if not found
Write target: ~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/AGENTS.md

Operation flow:

main attempts to read skills/team-dev/coder/AGENTS.md (priority)
       ↓ if not found
main reads projects/ma/coder/AGENTS.md (fallback)
       ↓
main writes to ~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/AGENTS.md

③ Write SOUL.md — Personality Profile

Template source (priority): skills/team-dev/coder/SOUL.md → fallback to projects/ma/coder/SOUL.md if not found
Write target: ~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/SOUL.md

Operation flow:

main attempts to read skills/team-dev/coder/SOUL.md (priority)
       ↓ if not found
main reads projects/ma/coder/SOUL.md (fallback)
       ↓
main writes to ~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/SOUL.md

④ Create Project Symlink

Allow the agent to access the shared project directory:

ln -s ~/.openclaw/workspace/projects ~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/projects

This way, when the agent is dispatched, it can access project code and docs in main's workspace via projects/.

⑤ Repeat for All Missing Agents

Repeat steps ①–④ for each missing agent (reviewer, tester, auditor, publicist). Full mapping:

Agent	AGENTS.md Template Source (priority)	SOUL.md Template Source (priority)	Write Target Workspace	Symlink Command
coder	`skills/team-dev/coder/AGENTS.md` → `projects/ma/coder/AGENTS.md`	`skills/team-dev/coder/SOUL.md` → `projects/ma/coder/SOUL.md`	`~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/`	`ln -s ~/.openclaw/workspace/projects ~/.openclaw/workspace-coder/projects`
reviewer	`skills/team-dev/reviewer/AGENTS.md` → `projects/ma/reviewer/AGENTS.md`	`skills/team-dev/reviewer/SOUL.md` → `projects/ma/reviewer/SOUL.md`	`~/.openclaw/workspace-reviewer/`	`ln -s ~/.openclaw/workspace/projects ~/.openclaw/workspace-reviewer/projects`
tester	`skills/team-dev/tester/AGENTS.md` → `projects/ma/tester/AGENTS.md`	`skills/team-dev/tester/SOUL.md` → `projects/ma/tester/SOUL.md`	`~/.openclaw/workspace-tester/`	`ln -s ~/.openclaw/workspace/projects ~/.openclaw/workspace-tester/projects`
auditor	`skills/team-dev/auditor/AGENTS.md` → `projects/ma/auditor/AGENTS.md`	`skills/team-dev/auditor/SOUL.md` → `projects/ma/auditor/SOUL.md`	`~/.openclaw/workspace-auditor/`	`ln -s ~/.openclaw/workspace/projects ~/.openclaw/workspace-auditor/projects`
publicist	`skills/team-dev/publicist/AGENTS.md` → `projects/ma/publicist/AGENTS.md`	`skills/team-dev/publicist/SOUL.md` → `projects/ma/publicist/SOUL.md`	`~/.openclaw/workspace-publicist/`	`ln -s ~/.openclaw/workspace/projects ~/.openclaw/workspace-publicist/projects`

Note: AGENTS.md and SOUL.md are written to the agent's own workspace root directory — these are the rule files the agent actually follows. Template sources have two paths: skills/team-dev/<agent>/ (runtime copy, priority) and projects/ma/<agent>/ (template source, fallback). Both are identical in content — skills/team-dev/ is a deployed copy of the corresponding template from projects/ma/. Templates should not be modified; they are only used for initialization writes.

Step 2a Finish: Report Ready, Continue Flow

After all agents are initialized, main informs the user:

✅ All missing agents have been initialized.

Agent AGENTS.md SOUL.md projects symlink
coder ✅ ✅ ✅
reviewer ✅ ✅ ✅

Team is ready. Starting team development workflow.

main then proceeds directly to §Process Stages without further user confirmation.

Step 2b: User Chooses "Go Solo"

main falls back to single-agent mode, taking over missing roles directly:

Missing Role	How main Takes Over
coder	main handles design and coding
reviewer	main handles code quality review
tester	main handles testing
auditor	main handles audit and checklist
publicist	main handles documentation

main explicitly informs the user:

⚠️ Currently in single-agent mode. The following agents are not registered: [list]. All roles are handled by main. You can have me initialize agents for full multi-agent collaboration at any time.

Step 2c: User Chooses "Cancel"

main confirms and terminates:

Team development flow cancelled. Say "/team-dev" anytime to restart.

Hybrid Scenario: Partial Agent Readiness

If only some agents are registered (e.g., coder and tester are ready, the rest missing), main follows the same interactive flow:

List ready agents: e.g., "coder ✅, tester ✅"
List missing agents: e.g., "reviewer ❌, auditor ❌, publicist ❌"
Present the same three options: Initialize missing / Go Solo / Cancel

Integrity Check for Ready Agents

For agents already present in openclaw agents list, main should also quickly verify that key files in their workspace are intact:

Check Item	Path	Action if Missing
AGENTS.md	`~/.openclaw/workspace-{agent}/AGENTS.md`	Rewrite from `skills/team-dev/{agent}/AGENTS.md` (priority) or `projects/ma/{agent}/AGENTS.md` (fallback)
SOUL.md	`~/.openclaw/workspace-{agent}/SOUL.md`	Rewrite from `skills/team-dev/{agent}/SOUL.md` (priority) or `projects/ma/{agent}/SOUL.md` (fallback)
projects symlink	`~/.openclaw/workspace-{agent}/projects`	Run `ln -s ~/.openclaw/workspace/projects ~/.openclaw/workspace-{agent}/projects`

If an agent is registered but key files are missing (e.g., the agent was manually cleaned up), main should auto-repair and mark it as "⚠️ Restored" rather than "✅" in the initialization report.

Agent Behavior Guide Sync

Design purpose: Each agent's AGENTS.md/SOUL.md consists of two parts — MA framework unified rules (MA:CORE) + agent personalization. This section defines the merge mechanism, ensuring the framework rules evolve uniformly while preserving each agent's accumulated personalization.

Core Principle: Merge, Don't Overwrite

Each agent's AGENTS.md and SOUL.md is divided into two regions:

MA Core region — enclosed by  and  markers. These are MA framework-managed rules that ensure team collaboration consistency.
Custom region — the free area outside the markers. Agents record notes, preferences, lessons learned, and personal habits here. This content belongs to the agent and must not be touched during initialization.

Template Sources

The MA framework has two sets of template paths, identical in content but with different purposes:

skills/team-dev/<agent>/ — Runtime copy, used by the agent initialization flow (read with priority).
projects/ma/<agent>/ — Template source, used for behavior guide sync. Both sets have identical content.

Behavior guide sync uses the following projects/ma/<agent>/ paths:

Agent	AGENTS.md Template	SOUL.md Template
main	`projects/ma/main/AGENTS.md`	`projects/ma/main/SOUL.md`
coder	`projects/ma/coder/AGENTS.md`	`projects/ma/coder/SOUL.md`
reviewer	`projects/ma/reviewer/AGENTS.md`	`projects/ma/reviewer/SOUL.md`
tester	`projects/ma/tester/AGENTS.md`	`projects/ma/tester/SOUL.md`
auditor	`projects/ma/auditor/AGENTS.md`	`projects/ma/auditor/SOUL.md`
publicist	`projects/ma/publicist/AGENTS.md`	`projects/ma/publicist/SOUL.md`

Operation Flow

Step 1: main Studies the Project

main reads the following files to fully understand the MA framework:

projects/ma/SKILL.md — This document, to understand execution flow and merge mechanism
projects/ma/README.md — Team overview, quick start
projects/ma/docs/multi-agent-design.md — Architecture design: agent design, communication matrix, three-document system, configuration reference

Step 2: main Merges AGENTS.md

For each agent (coder, reviewer, tester, auditor, publicist), main executes:

Read projects/ma/<agent>/AGENTS.md — this is the role template
Send to the corresponding agent via sessions_spawn, with a message like:
Please merge the following AGENTS.md template into your workspace.
- If an AGENTS.md already exists in your workspace: only update the content between  and , keeping custom content outside the markers unchanged
- If no AGENTS.md exists yet: write it directly
- Reply to confirm when done
The agent receives and performs the merge operation in the current session
The agent replies to main confirming completion

Step 3: main Merges SOUL.md

The flow is the same as AGENTS.md, but with extra care:

SOUL.md records the agent's personality traits. Agents accumulate unique character and experience through long-term work.
Initial setup: write the template content directly
Subsequent updates: only sync newly added personality traits from the template. Never overwrite the agent's accumulated personalization.
If the agent has already developed its own understanding and expression of its personality, main should respect and preserve it.

Step 4: Verification

main confirms with each agent one by one:

Please read your AGENTS.md and SOUL.md, and confirm that the MA:CORE regions are correctly synced and custom content is intact.

Each agent replies to confirm. Initialization complete.

This design ensures: framework rules evolve uniformly, agent personalization persists continuously — the two run in parallel without conflict.
