SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Coordinating large software projects with many files and multiple teams can be error-prone and slow without a structured orchestration layer.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Distributed task orchestration across agent pools (polecats) to accelerate development.
  • Grouping related work into convoys to maintain feature cohesion.
  • Real-time progress visibility through rig status and task feeds for large repos.

Quick Start

Install Gastown in your project with gt install and initialize a main rig using gt rig add main.

FAQPage Schema
How do I coordinate multi-agent task distribution for a large monorepo?

Multi-agent task distribution for monorepos is coordinated by grouping related work into convoys and distributing tasks across agent pools. This maintains feature cohesion while accelerating development across multiple concurrent workstreams.

What is the best way to orchestrate concurrent workstreams in a multi-module software project?

Orchestrating concurrent workstreams is best handled through a structured layer that groups related tasks into convoys. This approach maintains feature cohesion and provides real-time progress visibility across large repositories with multiple files.

Does multi-agent orchestration work if the Gastown CLI is unavailable?

Multi-agent orchestration includes clear fallbacks if the Gastown CLI is unavailable. The system is designed to manage agent pools and convoys with graceful degradation when the command-line interface cannot be accessed.

How do I set up task distribution for large software projects using rig management?

Task distribution setup starts by installing the CLI with gt install and initializing a main rig using gt rig add main. This creates the foundational structure needed to manage agent pools and monitor real-time progress feeds.

When do I need multi-agent orchestration for software development?

Multi-agent orchestration is needed when coordinating large software projects with many files and multiple teams becomes error-prone and slow. It applies to monorepos or multi-module projects requiring structured management of concurrent workstreams.

Can I use agent pools to accelerate development across multiple modules?

Agent pools can accelerate development by distributing tasks across multiple agents simultaneously. This distributed task orchestration approach scales to handle large repositories while maintaining visibility through real-time rig status feeds.
