SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Orchestrates dynamic self-spawning of parallel sub-agents to tackle complex workloads while ensuring memory isolation and controlled execution depth.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Self-spawn control: configure allow_self_spawn and max_spawn_depth to manage recursive spawning.
  • Parallel execution: spawn_self launches multiple child agents simultaneously.
  • Memory isolation & context fork: each child gets a fresh ShortTermMemory, while LongTermMemory remains shared; context can fork for isolation.
  • Safety guards: depth and per-call child limits prevent runaway spawning; provider-safe execution ensures safe multi-agent runs. Use Case: A coordinator delegates a set of subtasks to parallel children to accelerate processing and then synthesizes results.

Quick Start

Create a root coordinator with allow_self_spawn and spawn_self enabled, then call spawn_self with a list of tasks to run in parallel.

FAQPage Schema
How do I spawn parallel sub-agents to divide work and accelerate processing?▼

To spawn parallel sub-agents, call spawn_self with a list of tasks to launch multiple child agents simultaneously, accelerating processing and enabling result synthesis.

How does memory isolation work when spawning parallel child agents?▼

Memory isolation provides each spawned child a fresh ShortTermMemory while keeping LongTermMemory shared, ensuring isolated short-term context and accessible long-term knowledge across children.

Can I control the spawn depth to prevent runaway recursive agent spawning?▼

Yes, you can prevent runaway recursive spawning by configuring max_spawn_depth and per-call child limits as safety guards to strictly control execution depth and spawned agent count.

What's the best way to manage context forking when delegating subtasks to parallel agents?▼

The best way to manage context forking is to enable it for isolation, ensuring each parallel child agent operates within its own separated context while sharing long-term knowledge.

Does self-spawning support configurable limits for multi-agent runs?▼

Self-spawning supports configurable limits via allow_self_spawn and max_spawn_depth to manage recursive spawning and enforce execution boundaries, ensuring provider-safe multi-agent runs.
