Orchestrate specialized agent teams (Architect, Coder, Tester, Reviewer) using high-fidelity communication protocols. Use when a task requires cross-disciplinary coordination, complex architectural changes, or multi-agent parallel workflows.
🏗️ Agent Team Builder
This skill provides the procedural knowledge to orchestrate specialized agent teams within the Initra ecosystem. It enables a "Supervisor" agent to delegate tasks, manage handovers, and ensure architectural integrity across multi-agent workflows.
📋 Orchestration Checklist
Before starting a multi-agent session, verify the following:
Role Identification: Are agent blueprints present? (Check .claude/agents/, .cursor/agents/, .codex/agents/, etc.)
Topology Selection: Which pattern fits the task? (Pipeline, Fan-out, or Supervisor)
Memory Initialization: Is the session context clear? (Framework, Database, Auth selections)
🛠️ Orchestration Patterns & Topologies
1. Swarm Topologies
Mesh (Peer-to-Peer): Equal peers. Use for cross-functional collaboration.
Hierarchical (Queen-Worker): Architect leads specialized workers. Use for large-scale features.
Adaptive (Dynamic): Swarm switches topology based on task complexity.
2. Communication Patterns (Handovers)
Pipeline: Architect -> Coder -> Tester.
Fan-out: Supervisor -> [Agent A, Agent B].
Supervisor: Reviewer <-> Coder.
🚦 Execution Procedures (The SPARC Cycle)
Agents MUST follow the SPARC cycle for all handovers:
Specification (S): The Supervisor/Architect delivers a precise spec for the sub-task.
Pseudocode (P): The receiving agent plans the implementation in natural language.
Architecture (A): Verify interface compatibility with other active agents.
Refinement (R): Implement with TDD. The Coder writes logic; the Tester writes tests.
Completion (C): Reviewer validates. Supervisor merges and captures knowledge.
Step 1: Topology Discovery
If agent blueprints are missing, invoke the Initra Engine logic:
