Message formatting in a multi-agent system requires structured rules to ensure clear communication with the orchestrator. This skill provides specific standards for structuring messages so that worker agents correctly process task assignments and completions.

In the CLI Agent Orchestrator, an 'assign' task delegates work to a worker agent, while a 'handoff' transfers responsibility for a critical operation. This skill defines protocols for interpreting and handling both task types to ensure successful completion.

Worker agents process assigned tasks by adhering to specific messaging and formatting standards defined by task completion protocols. This ensures the supervisor agent receives correctly structured messages confirming the interpretation and execution of the assigned operation.

Yes, multi-agent communication in the CLI Agent Orchestrator requires adherence to specific messaging and formatting standards. These protocols are critical for agents to successfully interpret task assignments and report completion status back to the supervisor.

You need to apply task completion protocols whenever a worker agent in a multi-agent system receives an assignment from a supervisor. Applying these formatting rules ensures the orchestrator correctly interprets the task handoff and processes the completion message.
