dot_swarm

What it does

.swarm provides a coordination framework for fleets of AI agents working across different sessions and repositories. Instead of relying on a central orchestrator or database, it uses "stigmergy"—indirect coordination through a shared medium (the filesystem)—allowing agents to self-organize by reading and leaving traces in a .swarm/ directory.

Tools

• swarm init: Initializes a new swarm environment with a signing identity.
• swarm add: Creates new work items in the queue.
• swarm claim: Optimistically claims a work item to prevent duplicate effort.
• swarm done: Marks a task as complete with a a handoff note.
• swarm ready: Identifies work items that are unblocked and safe to pick up.
• swarm audit: Scans for stale claims, broken dependencies, and security anomalies.
• swarm crawl: Maps the project structure into context.md for agent orientation.
• swarm spawn: Launches agents in isolated tmux windows with specific roles (Worker, Inspector, Supervisor).
