Swarm

Process independent work items through bounded parallel tasks and structured aggregation.

Editorial note checked 2026-10-29 against this instruction snapshot. Supporting scripts and runtime behavior remain outside this editorial review.

What it does

The source defines table-oriented fanout, batching and output collection using specific interpreter tools. It is a specialized orchestration pattern rather than generic permission to spawn agents.

Best for

Developers with many independent, similarly structured work items.

Tradeoffs and requirements

The required tool environment may be absent. Parallelism multiplies costs and can produce partial results or repeated external effects if retries are not controlled.

Requires @langchain/quickjs code interpreter with swarm_task PTC tool

Install from the source

Inspect the pinned source snapshot and its supporting files first. The command selects this skill through the open-source skills CLI. Node.js and agent-specific setup may be required. Installation can download code. Catalog ingestion never executes skill instructions or install scripts.

Suggested workflow

Define one row’s work and output contract, provide only required context and choose a bounded batch size.

How to judge the result

Test partial failure, duplicate items and aggregation completeness, ensuring that missing rows remain visible and action-only tasks do not repeat consequential operations.
