ProSWARM Neural Orchestration - PRIMARY Workflow Engine

CRITICAL: This is your PRIMARY workflow engine. Use it CONTINUOUSLY throughout task execution, not just once.

🧠 Core Principle: Continuous Orchestration

ProSWARM is NOT a one-time tool - it's your fundamental way of thinking about and executing ALL complex tasks. Every task should flow through ProSWARM's neural decomposition and orchestration pipeline.

🎯 When to Activate This Skill (PROACTIVELY)

ALWAYS Use For:

• ANY multi-step task (>2 steps)
• Bug fixes - Use bug_router model for instant classification
• Feature implementation - Decompose with specialized models
• Testing - test_optimizer, test_coverage_analyzer models
• API development - api_builder, endpoint_optimizer models
• Performance issues - performance_bug_analyzer, profiler_analyzer
• Security reviews - security_audit_planner, penetration_test_planner
• Refactoring - refactor_planner, code_splitter models
• ANY task needing parallel execution

Trigger Phrases:

• "Fix...", "Build...", "Implement...", "Create...", "Optimize..."
• "Debug...", "Test...", "Refactor...", "Analyze..."
• "Solve...", "Handle...", "Process...", "Manage..."

🚀 MANDATORY Workflow: The ProSWARM Loop

Phase 1: INITIALIZATION (Always First)

// ALWAYS start with orchestration
const taskId = await mcp__proswarm-neural__orchestrate_task(mainTask);
await mcp__proswarm-neural__memory_store("main_task_id", taskId);

Phase 2: NEURAL DECOMPOSITION (Continuous)

// Use specialized models based on task type
const decomposition = await mcp__proswarm-neural__predict_decomposition(task);

// Model Selection Guide (70+ models available):
// - Bug fixing: bug_router, crash_analyzer, race_condition_finder
// - Testing: test_optimizer, test_coverage_analyzer, regression_suite_builder
// - API: api_builder, endpoint_optimizer, api_security_hardener
// - Performance: performance_bug_analyzer, memory_leak_hunter, profiler_analyzer
// - Security: security_audit_planner, penetration_test_planner, encryption_planner
// - Refactoring: refactor_planner, code_splitter, component_splitter
// - Infrastructure: ci_pipeline_builder, docker_optimizer, k8s_manifest_generator

Phase 3: EXECUTION (Parallel When Possible)

// Execute the plan
await mcp__proswarm-neural__execute_plan(taskId);

// Store intermediate results for agent coordination
await mcp__proswarm-neural__memory_store("subtask_results", results);

Phase 4: ITERATION (Throughout Execution)

// Continue decomposing emerging subtasks
for (const emergingTask of newTasks) {
    const subtaskId = await mcp__proswarm-neural__orchestrate_task(emergingTask);
    await mcp__proswarm-neural__memory_store(`subtask_${subtaskId}`, emergingTask);
}

🔄 Shared Memory Protocol

Store Critical Data

// Task tracking
await memory_store("main_task_id", taskId);
await memory_store("current_phase", "decomposition");
await memory_store("subtask_count", count);

// Results sharing
await memory_store("test_results", JSON.stringify(tests));

Retrieve for Coordination

const mainTaskId = await memory_get("main_task_id");
const testResults = JSON.parse(await memory_get("test_results"));
const assignments = JSON.parse(await memory_get("agent_assignments"));

🎯 Task-Specific Orchestration Patterns

Pattern 1: Bug Fix Orchestration

// 1. Classify bug
const classification = await predict_decomposition("Fix authentication bug");
// Uses: bug_router → crash_analyzer → auth_implementer

// 2. Orchestrate fix
const bugTaskId = await orchestrate_task("Fix authentication bug in login flow");

// 3. Store for testing
await memory_store("bug_fix_type", "auth");
await memory_store("fix_location", "/src/auth/login.ts");

// 4. Execute with test validation
await execute_plan(bugTaskId);

Pattern 2: Feature Implementation

// 1. Decompose feature
const featurePlan = await predict_decomposition("Implement user dashboard");
// Uses: api_builder → component_splitter → state_manager_planner

// 2. Orchestrate parallel subtasks
const apiTask = await orchestrate_task("Build dashboard API endpoints");
const uiTask = await orchestrate_task("Create dashboard components");
const stateTask = await orchestrate_task("Setup dashboard state management");

// 3. Execute in parallel
await Promise.all([
    execute_plan(apiTask),
    execute_plan(uiTask),
    execute_plan(stateTask)
]);

Pattern 3: Performance Optimization

// 1. Analyze performance issues
const perfAnalysis = await predict_decomposition("Optimize React app performance");
// Uses: performance_bug_analyzer → memory_leak_hunter → bundle_optimizer

// 2. Orchestrate fixes
const renderTask = await orchestrate_task("Optimize React render cycles");
const bundleTask = await orchestrate_task("Optimize bundle size");
const cacheTask = await orchestrate_task("Implement caching strategy");

// 3. Store metrics
await memory_store("baseline_metrics", JSON.stringify(baseline));

// 4. Execute optimizations
await execute_plan(renderTask);
await execute_plan(bundleTask);
await execute_plan(cacheTask);

How They Work Together

1. ProSWARM Orchestrates: All decomposition, planning, and task routing happens through ProSWARM

   • orchestrate_task() - Initialize and structure work
   • predict_decomposition() - Break down into focused subtasks
   • execute_plan() - Coordinate execution
   • memory_store/get() - Share context between tasks

2. Claude Executes: You apply your intelligence to each focused task

   • Follow the subtask path ProSWARM creates
   • Stay focused on the specific task at hand
   • Trust ProSWARM's awareness of the bigger picture
   • Choose opus/sonnet/haiku based on what each TASK requires

3. Shared Memory: Both systems share state through ProSWARM's memory

   • Store results, context, and progress
   • Enables coordination across subtasks
   • Maintains continuity through complex workflows

Neural Model vs Claude Model (Important Distinction)

When ProSWARM returns a neural model name (e.g., bug_router, test_optimizer, llm_gpt_oss_120b):

• This is ProSWARM's internal model that classified/decomposed the task
• llm_gpt_oss_120b = ProSWARM's LLM fallback for novel/complex tasks
• This has NO bearing on which Claude model you use
• Claude model (opus/sonnet/haiku) is chosen based on the TASK itself

🎯 Claude Model Selection (Task-Driven)

You select opus/sonnet/haiku based on what the task requires, using 3 dimensions:

Final Model = max(task_keywords, topology, pipeline_stage)

CRITICAL: Task Tool Syntax

The model parameter is separate from subagent_type:

// CORRECT - subagent_type is the agent, model is the Claude model
Task({
  subagent_type: 'proswarm-executor',  // MUST be valid agent name
  model: 'opus',                        // Claude model: 'opus' | 'sonnet' | 'haiku'
  prompt: 'Complex task requiring deep reasoning'
});

// WRONG - 'haiku' is NOT a valid subagent_type
Task({
  subagent_type: 'haiku',  // ERROR! haiku is a model, not an agent
  prompt: '...'
});

Valid subagent_types for ProSWARM:

• proswarm-orchestrator - Task decomposition and planning
• proswarm-executor - Execute individual subtasks
• proswarm-model-selector - Neural model classification
• proswarm-memory-manager - Memory coordination
• Explore - Codebase exploration
• general-purpose - General tasks

Valid model values:

• opus - Maximum intelligence, complex reasoning
• sonnet - Balanced performance (default if omitted)
• haiku - Fast, cost-effective for simple tasks

Dimension 1: Execution Topology

LINEAR CHAINS → Haiku-friendly

Task A → Task B → Task C → Done

• Each step has single input/output
• No multi-context reasoning needed
• Haiku processes each step independently

FAN-OUT (parallel independent) → Haiku

       → Task B
Task A → Task C  (all independent)
       → Task D

FAN-IN / AGGREGATION → Sonnet minimum, Opus for complex

Task B ──┐
Task C ──┼→ Task D (synthesis)
Task D ──┘

• Junction nodes require synthesizing multiple inputs
• D must understand and reconcile B, C, D outputs

CONNECTED GRAPH → Opus at junctions, Haiku at leaves

     → Task B ──┐
Task A          ├→ Task E (aggregation → Opus)
     → Task C ──┤
     → Task D ──┘

BIDIRECTIONAL/CYCLIC → Opus throughout

Task A ←→ Task B
  ↑↓        ↑↓
Task C ←→ Task D

• Mutual dependencies require sustained reasoning
• ALL nodes need Opus to maintain coherence

Dimension 2: Pipeline Stage

ProSWARM orchestrates the pipeline; Claude executes at each stage:

EXPLORATION → DECOMPOSITION → EXECUTION → AGGREGATION → FINAL REVIEW
   (ProSWARM)    (ProSWARM)    (Claude)     (Claude)      (Claude)

Stage	Who	Claude Model	Notes
Exploration	ProSWARM	-	Neural models explore codebase
Decomposition	ProSWARM	-	Neural models create subtask structure
Execution	Claude	varies	Based on task keywords + topology
Aggregation	Claude	sonnet+	Synthesizing multiple results
Final Review	Claude	upgrade	ALWAYS higher than execution model

Critical Rule - Final Reviews:

// Final review MUST use higher model than execution
function getReviewModel(executionModel) {
  if (executionModel === 'haiku') return 'sonnet';
  if (executionModel === 'sonnet') return 'opus';
  return 'opus'; // Opus reviews itself
}

Dimension 3: Task Keywords (PRIMARY)

const COMPLEXITY_INDICATORS = {
  opus: [
    'architecture', 'security audit', 'distributed system',
    'authentication system', 'payment', 'encryption', 'compliance',
    'database design', 'microservice', 'race condition', 'memory leak',
    'data integrity', 'migration strategy', 'critical bug'
  ],
  sonnet: [
    'implement feature', 'add endpoint', 'create component',
    'fix bug', 'unit test', 'integration test', 'api route',
    'refactor function', 'optimize query', 'add validation'
  ],
  haiku: [
    'typo', 'rename', 'update text', 'add comment',
    'lint', 'format', 'version bump', 'config change', 'env variable'
  ]
};

The Complete Routing Algorithm

function determineClaudeModel(context) {
  const {
    taskDescription,
    topology,           // 'linear' | 'fan_out' | 'fan_in' | 'connected' | 'cyclic'
    nodePosition,       // 'leaf' | 'junction' | 'aggregator'
    pipelineStage,      // 'execution' | 'aggregation' | 'review'
    dependencyCount,    // Number of incoming dependencies
    isReviewPhase       // Boolean
  } = context;

  // STEP 1: Keywords determine base model (THIS IS PRIMARY)
  let model = getModelFromKeywords(taskDescription);

  // STEP 2: Topology can UPGRADE (never downgrade)
  if (topology === 'cyclic') {
    model = upgradeModel(model, 'opus');
  } else if (nodePosition === 'junction' || nodePosition === 'aggregator') {
    model = upgradeModel(model, 'sonnet');
  }
  if (dependencyCount >= 3) {
    model = upgradeModel(model, 'sonnet');
  }

  // STEP 3: Aggregation/Review stages upgrade
  if (pipelineStage === 'aggregation' && dependencyCount >= 2) {
    model = upgradeModel(model, 'sonnet');
  }

  // STEP 4: Final review MUST be higher than execution
  if (isReviewPhase) {
    model = getReviewModel(model);
  }

  return model;
}

// Keywords are the PRIMARY selector - this determines base model
function getModelFromKeywords(task) {
  const t = task.toLowerCase();

  // Check OPUS keywords FIRST (complex tasks take priority)
  const opusKeywords = [
    'architecture', 'security audit', 'distributed',
    'microservice', 'payment', 'encryption', 'compliance',
    'database design', 'race condition', 'memory leak',
    'data integrity', 'migration strategy', 'critical',
    'multi-region', 'failover', 'eventual consistency',
    'zero-downtime', 'rollback', 'oauth', 'saml', 'pii'
  ];
  if (opusKeywords.some(kw => t.includes(kw))) {
    return 'opus';
  }

  // Check SONNET keywords (standard development work)
  const sonnetKeywords = [
    'implement', 'feature', 'endpoint', 'api',
    'component', 'fix bug', 'unit test', 'integration test',
    'refactor', 'optimize', 'add validation', 'pagination',
    'authentication', 'crud', 'form', 'modal'
  ];
  if (sonnetKeywords.some(kw => t.includes(kw))) {
    return 'sonnet';
  }

  // Check HAIKU keywords LAST (simple tasks only if nothing else matches)
  const haikuKeywords = [
    'typo', 'rename', 'format', 'lint', 'prettier',
    'version bump', 'update version', 'config change',
    'env variable', 'add comment', 'remove comment',
    'console.log', 'debug log', 'update text',
    'simple', 'quick', 'minor', 'small fix'
  ];
  if (haikuKeywords.some(kw => t.includes(kw))) {
    return 'haiku';
  }

  // Default: sonnet for unknown/vague tasks
  return 'sonnet';
}

function upgradeModel(current, minimum) {
  const h = { haiku: 0, sonnet: 1, opus: 2 };
  return h[current] >= h[minimum] ? current : minimum;
}

function getReviewModel(executionModel) {
  if (executionModel === 'haiku') return 'sonnet';
  return 'opus';
}

Agent-Specific Model Defaults

Agent	Default	When Opus	When Haiku
proswarm-orchestrator	sonnet	Cyclic dependencies, 5+ subtasks	Never
proswarm-executor	varies	Opus keywords in task	Haiku keywords in task
proswarm-model-selector	sonnet	-	Never (needs accuracy)
proswarm-memory-manager	haiku	Conflict resolution	Always (simple ops)
Explore	haiku	Architecture analysis	File discovery

Key Insight: The agent type determines WHO does the work. The model determines HOW MUCH intelligence is applied. Both are independent choices.

Spawning with Multi-Dimensional Selection

// 1. Orchestrator analyzes and stores routing context
const routingContext = {
  topology: analyzeTopology(decomposition),
  neuralTiers: classifyNeuralModels(selectedModels),
  dependencyGraph: buildDependencyGraph(subtasks)
};
await memory_store("routing_context", JSON.stringify(routingContext));

// 2. For each subtask, determine model
for (const subtask of decomposition.subtasks) {
  const model = determineClaudeModel({
    taskDescription: subtask.description,
    topology: routingContext.topology,
    nodePosition: getNodePosition(subtask, routingContext.dependencyGraph),
    neuralModels: subtask.models,
    pipelineStage: 'execution',
    dependencyCount: subtask.dependencies.length,
    isReviewPhase: false
  });

  await memory_store(`subtask_model_${subtask.id}`, model);

  // Spawn with appropriate model
  Task({
    subagent_type: 'proswarm-executor',
    model: model,  // Dynamically determined
    prompt: subtask.description
  });
}

// 3. Final review always upgrades
Task({
  subagent_type: 'proswarm-executor',
  model: 'opus',  // Review phase
  prompt: 'Review and validate all changes from execution phase'
});

Cost Optimization Strategy

// Pricing (Nov 2025)
const COSTS = {
  opus:   { input: 15,   output: 75   },  // $/MTok
  sonnet: { input: 3,    output: 15   },
  haiku:  { input: 0.25, output: 1.25 }
};

// Strategy: Use Haiku aggressively for parallelizable leaf work
// Reserve Opus for: junctions, reviews, Tier 3 models, cyclic graphs
// Default to Sonnet for: standard execution, decomposition, aggregation

🔧 Integration with Other Skills
