Multi-agent coordination requires structured task allocation using shared room tasks, allowing agents to claim pending items, execute them, and transition states to completed or blocked to prevent duplicated effort.

Agents share structured data by emitting and consuming pipe messages, sending targeted payloads to specific agents or broadcasting context to all participants via consistent pipe subjects for durable data exchange.

Yes, you can build multi-stage pipelines using flow DAGs to orchestrate complex coordination across agent roles, enabling higher-level fan-out workflows and structured handoffs for distributed development tasks.

Shared room tasks follow a structured lifecycle state model with pending, claimed, completed, blocked, and abandoned states, ensuring only one agent executes each task and tracking progress across the coordination workflow.

Start a claim execute report workflow by creating a room task, claiming it when available, executing the work, and emitting results to a handoff pipe for the next agent to consume and continue the pipeline.

Flow DAGs are needed when multi-agent coordination requires complex multi-stage orchestration with fan-out graphs, rather than simple point-to-point pipe data exchange between individual agents.
