/hive-swarm — Quick Start a Swarm

Launch a swarm in one command. Shortcut for /hive swarm.

Arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Behavior

With arguments

Parse $ARGUMENTS as: <blueprint_id> <task description...>

The first word is the blueprint ID. Everything after it is the task.

Examples:

/hive-swarm feature-dev Add dark mode toggle to settings page
/hive-swarm bug-fix Login fails when email contains a plus sign
/hive-swarm security-audit Scan the API routes for injection vulnerabilities

Steps:

Call mcp__hive__hive_swarm_start with the parsed blueprint_id and task.
On success, immediately call mcp__hive__hive_pollinate with the new swarm_id to kick off the first work cycle.
Report to the user:
- Swarm number and ID
- Blueprint used
- Task description
- Spawn requests from pollinate (which bees are being dispatched)

Without arguments

Call mcp__hive__hive_blueprint_list to show available blueprints.
Display blueprints in a readable format:
- feature-dev — Feature Development: "Drop in a feature request. Get back a tested PR."
- bug-fix — Bug Fix: "Report a bug. Get back a verified fix with tests."
- security-audit — Security Audit: "Scan a codebase for vulnerabilities."
Prompt the user: "Which blueprint? And what's the task?"

Error handling

If the blueprint is not installed, suggest running /hive install <id> first.
If hive_swarm_start fails, show the error and suggest checking blueprints with /hive blueprints.

Output format

On successful swarm start:

Swarm #N started (blueprint: <id>)
Task: <task description>

Dispatching bees:
  - <bee_id>: <flight description>
  ...

Important

Always pollinate immediately after starting a swarm — this kicks off the first flight.
Do NOT write code or edit files. This skill only starts swarms.
After starting a swarm, suggest: "Use /hive-drive to run this swarm autonomously."
