🎮 How to Use

First Time Setup

# 1. Prerequisites
# Install Ollama
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh
ollama login

# Install Claude Code
curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash

# Configure for Ollama
ollama launch claude

# 2. Install Mehaisi CodeSwarm (choose method above)
npm install -g mehaisi

# 3. Go to your messy repo
cd /path/to/your/messy/codebase

# 4. Initialize
codeswarm init

# You'll see:
# ✓ Directory structure created
# ✓ 19 agents configured
# ✓ Default workflows created
# ✓ Default pipelines created

Running Your First Investigation

# List available agents
codeswarm agents --list

# Run investigation workflow (all investigator agents)
codeswarm workflow investigate

# This will run:
# 1. API Detective - finds API issues
# 2. UI Inspector - finds UI issues  
# 3. Code Archaeologist - finds dead code
# 4. Security Scanner - finds vulnerabilities
# 5. Dependency Doctor - audits dependencies
# 6. Accessibility Auditor - checks accessibility

# Agents will coordinate automatically!
# Watch for messages like:
#   ℹ API Detective shared: 12 issues found
#   → UI Inspector notified
#   ⚠ Security Scanner reported: CRITICAL vulnerability

Reviewing Results

# View last session report
codeswarm report --last

# Check coordination summary
# (automatically shown after workflow completes)

# Reports are in:
# .mehaisi/sessions/[session-id]/reports/
#   - api-detective.json
#   - ui-inspector.json
#   - etc.

# Coordination data in:
# .mehaisi/sessions/[session-id]/coordination/
#   - state.json (shared findings, issues, fixes)

Fixing Issues (With Coordination)

# Fix API issues
codeswarm workflow fix-apis

# Agent coordination in action:
# 1. API Connector queries API Detective findings
# 2. Reads shared issues from coordination hub
# 3. Fixes issues by priority
# 4. Reports fixes back to hub
# 5. Other agents see the fixes and adapt

# Fix UI issues
codeswarm workflow fix-ui

# Agents coordinate:
# 1. Event Binder queries UI Inspector findings
# 2. Responsive Engineer reads related UI issues
# 3. Accessibility Fixer checks for related violations
# 4. All share their fixes

Full Pipeline (Complete Transformation)

# Cautious mode (recommended first time)
codeswarm pipeline cautious

# This runs 5 phases:
# Phase 1: Investigation (all investigators coordinate)
# Phase 2: Cleanup (safe removals)
# Phase 3: Core Fixes (API + UI fixes with coordination)
# Phase 4: Optimization (performance, refactoring, types)
# Phase 5: QA (tests, stress testing, production checks)

# Each phase creates a git checkpoint
# You approve changes at each step

🤝 Agent Coordination Explained

How Coordination Works

The Coordination Hub (lib/coordination-hub.js) enables agents to:

Share Findings

// Agent discovers something
coordinationHub.shareFinding(agentId, {
  type: 'api-issue',
  severity: 'high',
  summary: 'API call to localhost found',
  file: 'api/users.js',
  line: 42
});
// Other agents are notified automatically

Report Issues

// Agent creates work ticket for specialist
coordinationHub.reportIssue(agentId, {
  title: 'Missing error handling',
  severity: 'high',
  requiredCapability: 'error-handling',
  suggestedFix: 'Add try-catch block'
});
// Specialist agent sees this in their queue

Query Findings

// Agent checks what others found
const apiIssues = await coordinationHub.queryFindings(agentId, {
  type: 'api-issue',
  severity: 'high'
});
// Use findings to inform own work

Request Help

// Agent needs expertise
coordinationHub.requestHelp(agentId, {
  capability: 'security-analysis',
  description: 'Need security review of auth'
});
// Security expert agent is notified

Real Coordination Example

$ codeswarm workflow investigate

🤖 Running: API Detective
  📊 Analyzing 45 API calls...
  ℹ Shared finding: Hardcoded localhost in 12 files
  ℹ Shared finding: Missing error handling in 8 files
  ⚠ Reported issue: Critical - no authentication on /admin
  
🤖 Running: UI Inspector  
  → Received notification from API Detective
  📊 Analyzing UI with API context...
  ℹ Shared finding: Submit button for broken API
  → Linked to API Detective issue #3
  
🤖 Running: Security Scanner
  → Received CRITICAL notification from API Detective
  🔍 Deep scan of /admin endpoint...
  ⚠ Reported issue: URGENT - authentication bypass possible
  → Escalated to human review
  
📊 Coordination Summary:
  Findings shared: 23
  Issues reported: 15
  Critical issues: 2
  Cross-references: 7
  Active agents: 3
  
✓ All agents completed
✓ Coordination data saved

Coordination Benefits

No Duplicate Work - Agents see what others found
Context Awareness - Fixers know full scope from investigators
Smart Routing - Issues automatically go to right specialist
Human Escalation - Critical issues flagged immediately
Traceability - Full audit trail of who found/fixed what

🛡️ Safety Features

Git-Based Safety

Every agent runs in isolated git branch
Automatic checkpoints every N agents
One-command rollback: codeswarm rollback
Never modifies main branch directly

Test Validation

Runs test suite after each agent (configurable)
Auto-rollback if tests fail
Can skip with --skip-tests (not recommended)

Human Approval

High-risk changes require explicit approval
Shows diff before applying
Can pause/resume at any step

Token Budgets

Tracks token usage per agent
Prevents runaway API costs
Configurable limits in config.json

# Create new agent file
nano .mehaisi/agents/my-custom-agent.yml

name: My Custom Agent
type: investigator
risk_level: low
model: qwen3-coder

coordination:
  enabled: true
  capabilities:
    - custom-analysis
    - pattern-detection
  shares_with:
    - code-janitor
    - refactor-master

scope:
  include:
    - "src/**/*.js"
  exclude:
    - "**/*.test.js"

instructions: |
  You are a specialized agent for [your purpose].
  
  MISSION:
  1. [What to analyze]
  2. [What to find]
  3. [What to report]
  
  COORDINATION:
  - Use coordinationHub.shareFinding() to share discoveries
  - Use coordinationHub.reportIssue() for problems
  - Query other agents' findings for context
  
  OUTPUT:
  Generate structured report with findings.

output:
  report: "reports/my-custom-agent.md"
  structured: "reports/my-custom-agent.json"

validation:
  - "Report file created"
  - "No code modifications"

Run Custom Agent

🐛 Troubleshooting

"Command not found: mehaisi"

# Check NPM global bin path
npm config get prefix

# Add to PATH
export PATH=$PATH:$(npm config get prefix)/bin

# Or reinstall
npm uninstall -g mehaisi
npm install -g mehaisi

"Ollama connection failed"

# Start Ollama
ollama serve

# Or check if running
ollama list

# Verify URL in config
cat .mehaisi/config.json | grep ollama_url

"Claude Code not responding"

# Verify environment variables
echo $ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN  # Should be: ollama
echo $ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL    # Should be: http://localhost:11434

# Reconfigure
ollama launch claude --config

"Tests failing after agent run"

# Run tests manually to diagnose
npm test

# Skip tests temporarily
codeswarm run <agent> --skip-tests

# Or disable in config
# Set "require_tests": false in .mehaisi/config.json

"Agent not coordinating"

# Check coordination enabled in agent YAML
cat .mehaisi/agents/agent-name.yml | grep coordination

# Check coordination hub state
cat .mehaisi/sessions/[last-session]/coordination/state.json
