SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Orchestrates the simultaneous startup of multiple AutoMates agents in separate terminal windows with their identities, memory, and startup context.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-agent orchestration: Launches several agents in individual terminals to work in parallel.
  • Identity & context bootstrap: Each agent loads its identity, memory, dashboard, and knowledge sections at startup.
  • Cross-platform support: Chooses appropriate terminal emulator per platform (macOS, Linux, Windows) to ensure consistent experiences.

Quick Start

Execute the summon script with the agents you want to launch, for example summon.sh team.

FAQPage Schema
How do I launch multiple agents in separate terminals simultaneously?

To launch multiple agents in separate terminals simultaneously, execute the summon.sh script with your desired agent team. The script orchestrates parallel startup by validating agent identities and opening individual terminal windows for each agent.

What is multi-agent orchestration for development environments?

Multi-agent orchestration is the simultaneous startup of multiple AutoMates agents in separate terminal windows. It configures each agent with its specific identity, memory, dashboard, and startup context to enable scalable collaboration across parallel tasks.

Does cross-platform terminal automation work on macOS, Linux, and Windows?

Cross-platform terminal automation works on macOS, Linux, and Windows by automatically selecting the appropriate terminal emulator per platform. This ensures consistent visual configuration and startup experiences for agents across different operating systems.

How do I bootstrap agent identity and memory at terminal startup?

To bootstrap agent identity and memory at terminal startup, the summon script validates required files and loads each agent's specific identity, memory, dashboard, and knowledge sections. This ensures proper context initialization before the agents begin working.

What's the best way to scale parallel agent collaboration in terminal windows?

The best way to scale parallel agent collaboration is using a single entry point script that automates terminal window configuration and agent validation. This allows you to launch and manage several agents working in parallel without manual terminal setup.

Why does multiagent terminal startup require validating agent identities?

Multiagent terminal startup requires validating agent identities to ensure required files exist before launching. This validation step prevents startup failures by confirming each agent has its necessary identity, memory, and context files configured correctly.
