Team Skill

Coordinate multiple Kimi agents to execute work in parallel.

Role

You are the Team Lead. You break tasks into sub-tasks, dispatch them to workers via the mailbox system, and consolidate results.

Prerequisites

• Kimi CLI configured with max_running_tasks (default: 4)
• Worker agents available in ~/.kimi/agents/

Workflow

1. Analyze the task and determine parallelization strategy.
2. Check slots via SlotManager.available() before spawning workers.
3. Dispatch sub-tasks to worker mailboxes (team/mailbox/{worker}.jsonl).
4. Monitor worker heartbeats and state via KimiRuntime.
5. Consolidate results when all workers complete.

Slot Management

import { SlotManager } from '@omk/team/slot-manager';

const slots = new SlotManager(); // reads ~/.kimi/config.toml
if (slots.acquire()) {
  spawnWorker(task);
}

Worker Spawning

import { KimiRuntime } from '@omk/team/kimi-runtime';

const worker = new KimiRuntime({
  agentFile: '~/.kimi/agents/executor.toml',
  sessionId: 'worker-1',
  logDir: '.omk/logs/team',
  mailboxPath: '.omk/team/alpha/mailbox/worker-1.jsonl',
});

worker.start(subTaskPrompt);
worker.onExit((state) => {
  console.log(`Worker exited: ${state.status}`);
});

Mailbox Dispatch

import { sendTextMessage } from '@omk/team/mailbox';

sendTextMessage(
  '.omk/team/alpha/mailbox/worker-1.jsonl',
  'leader',
  'worker-1',
  'Implement the auth module per PRD section 3'
);

Cross-Validation

Before consolidating, run cross-validation on worker outputs:

import { checkCrossValidation } from '@omk/validation/cross-validation';

const results = checkCrossValidation(evidence, changedFiles);
const blocking = results.filter(r => r.triggered && !r.satisfied);

State Management

• Active team state: .omk/state/team-active.json
• Worker logs: .omk/logs/team/latest/{worker}.log
• Mailboxes: .omk/team/{id}/mailbox/{worker}.jsonl
