SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

ARTHUR's orchestration framework provides the disciplined protocols, routing decisions, and checkpoint governance required to coordinate multi-agent work without duplication or drift.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Delegation Protocol: seven-step process for assessing, roster checking, matching or hiring, explaining choices, briefing, tracking, and reporting.
  • Complexity Routing: three paths (research, standard, full) to handle varying task scopes; supports parallel and sequential execution with human checkpoints.
  • Parallel Dispatch & Checkpoints: enables parallel agent dispatch when tasks are independent and uses spec/plan checkpoints to pause for human approval when needed.
  • Error Recovery: mechanisms to re-dispatch or re-engage SAGE/MERLIN to recover from failures.
  • Artifact & Workspace Guidance: structure for spec folders and artifact storage to organize work.

Quick Start

Describe a request to ARTHUR and let ARTHUR classify the path, assemble a plan, and coordinate a parallel-dispatch workflow with required human checkpoints.

FAQPage Schema
How do I coordinate multi-agent delegation without task duplication?

Multi-agent delegation is coordinated by classifying requests into research, standard, or full paths, then dispatching independent tasks to appropriate agents in parallel while enforcing human checkpoints at Spec and Plan boundaries to prevent duplication and drift.

What is the best way to dispatch parallel tasks across multiple agents?

Dispatching parallel tasks across multiple agents requires routing independent operations to available roster agents simultaneously when outputs do not share files, ensuring efficient execution without resource conflicts.

How do human checkpoints work in an agent orchestration workflow?

Human checkpoints in agent orchestration work by pausing automated execution at Spec and Plan boundaries, requiring explicit human approval before the multi-agent workflow proceeds to the next phase of task delegation.

Do I need an existing agent roster before setting up multi-agent orchestration?

Yes, multi-agent orchestration requires an existing roster of agents and defined protocols, including the Delegation Protocol, Complexity Routing, and artifact storage in artifacts/, before you can classify and dispatch tasks.

How does error recovery work when a dispatched agent task fails?

Error recovery for failed dispatched tasks works by utilizing mechanisms to re-dispatch the task or re-engage SAGE/MERLIN agents to automatically recover from execution failures and resume the workflow.

When should I use complexity routing for multi-agent tasks?

Complexity routing for multi-agent tasks should be used to handle varying task scopes by directing requests into one of three paths—research, standard, or full—supporting both sequential and parallel execution based on task complexity.
