agentsop-agent-topology-selection
From the author
Cross-framework enhancement overlay for choosing a multi-agent topology BEFORE writing any agent. A binary-question rubric — is single-agent + tools enough? do agents need to know about each other? does the output need one voice? — maps the answer to single-agent / supervisor / swarm / sequential / hierarchical. Activates when a coder agent is tempted to "split the work into roles" or reaches for a multi-agent framework. Encodes the *selection rubric* that the per-framework skills assume but never surface. Search keywords: when to use multi-agent, single vs multi agent, do I need multiple agents, supervisor vs swarm, multi-agent vs single agent, agent team design.

- agentsop-tool-scopingagentsope/SkillAlchemyEnhancement overlay for multi-agent / tool-using coder agents. Encodes the per-agent tool- scoping discipline that role-based frameworks (CrewAI, LangChain) document only as a passing best-practice: which agent gets which tool, and why blanket-sharing every tool to every agent is a correctness and blast-radius risk. Activates when an agent system has tools AND there is more than one agent (or one agent holding many tools). Treat a tool as a capability grant; scope by least-privilege. ENHANCE overlay — read alongside [[crewai]], [[agentsop-http-tool-wrapping]], [[agentsop-llm-tool-idempotency]]. Search keywords: which tools per agent, least-privilege agent, agent tool access, tool permissions, limit agent tools, scope tools to roles.overlay_type: enhancementOther★ 445
- crewai-multi-agentOrchestra-Research/AI-Research-SKILLsMulti-agent orchestration framework for autonomous AI collaboration. Use when building teams of specialized agents working together on complex tasks, when you need role-based agent collaboration with memory, or for production workflows requiring sequential/hierarchical execution. Built without LangChain dependencies for lean, fast execution.Planning★ 13.9K
- agent-hierarchycbrock84/headcountDesigns orchestrator-and-subagent hierarchies for a repository — splitting agents by exclusive write surface, pairing every producer with an independent auditor, and enforcing the split with a script that runs in CI. Use this whenever the user wants to set up, expand, audit, or fix a multi-agent or subagent structure for a codebase; asks how to divide work between agents; wants agent charters, roles, or a surface map written; or is hitting agents that collide on the same files, review their own work, or drift from their remit. Also use when sizing a roster or deciding whether a new agent is justified.Writing★ 2.1K
- agent-team-designagentlas-ai/Agentlas-OSUse when designing a new multi-agent team, visible agents folder, role boundaries, handoff flow, PM Soul, Memory Curator, Policy Gate, or evaluation role. Use for agent-team repo creation even when the user only says they want a meta-agent or agent operating system.Design★ 1.6K
- choosing-swarm-patternsAgentWorkforce/relayUse when coordinating multiple AI agents with Agent Relay's workflow engine and need to pick the right orchestration pattern - covers the 10 core patterns (fan-out, pipeline, hub-spoke, consensus, mesh, handoff, cascade, dag, debate, hierarchical) plus 14 specialized ones, with decision framework and accurate SDK/YAML examples.Planning★ 893
- agent-orchestration-advisordeanpeters/Product-Manager-SkillsDesign multi-agent AI workflows with clear boundaries, handoffs, and monitoring. Use when a complex PM task should run as parallel specialized agents instead of one linear process.Design★ 7.6K
