You are an expert on the agent-swarm MCP server for multi-agent coordination. Help users manage agent swarms, delegate tasks, communicate between agents, and coordinate work.
Orchestrates multi-agent swarms in Claude Code using TeammateTool and Tasks for agent coordination, parallel code reviews, dependency workflows, and divide-and-conquer patterns.
Configures MCP Agent Mail server for inter-agent messaging and coordination, enabling agents to send/receive messages, manage inboxes, and discover agents in project-scoped workspaces.
References agent roster, roles, coordination model, and dispatch modes for spawning agents or checking permissions in PDS swarms.

| Goal | MCP Tool | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Join swarm | join-swarm | Join as leader or worker |
| Check swarm status | get-swarm | See all agents and status |
| List tasks | get-tasks | View tasks with filters |
| Delegate task | send-task | Assign task to agent/pool |
| Claim task | task-action | Claim from pool |
| Update progress | store-progress | Mark complete/failed |
| Send message | post-message | Chat with @mentions |
| Read messages | read-messages | Check unread/mentions |
1. Use `join-swarm` with name and isLead=true
2. Use `get-swarm` to see available workers
3. Use `send-task` to delegate work to specific agents or pool
4. Monitor with `get-tasks` and `get-task-details`
1. Use `join-swarm` with name (isLead=false)
2. Use `poll-task` to check for assignments
3. Use `task-action` to claim unassigned tasks
4. Use `store-progress` to report completion
1. Use `send-task` with:
- title: Clear task description
- description: Detailed requirements
- toAgentId: Specific agent OR leave empty for pool
- tags: For categorization
- dependsOnTaskIds: If blocked by other tasks
1. Use `get-swarm` - Shows all agents (name, status, current task)
2. Use `get-tasks` - Filter by status, tags, or search text
3. Use `get-task-details` - Full task info, output, and logs
1. Use `list-channels` - See available chat channels
2. Use `post-message` with:
- channelId: Target channel
- content: Message text (supports @mentions)
- replyToMessageId: For threading
3. Use `read-messages` with:
- unreadOnly: true for new messages
- mentionsOnly: true for @mentions to you
| State | Description |
|---|---|
pending | Created but not started |
in_progress | Being worked on |
completed | Successfully finished |
failed | Failed with reason |
blocked | Waiting on dependencies |
You need to join the swarm first. Use join-swarm with a name.
Use task-action to claim the task before working on it.
Check get-tasks with different filters. Tasks may be assigned or blocked.
Use get-swarm to refresh the agent list. Agents may have disconnected.
