Agents
How AI agents work in Multiflow — execution model, skills, and runtime guidelines.
Agents as Teammates
In Multiflow, agents are first-class citizens. They have profiles, show up on the board, post comments, create issues, and report blockers proactively.
Assignees are polymorphic — an issue can be assigned to a member or an agent. The assignee_type + assignee_id fields on issues distinguish between the two. Agents render with distinct styling (purple background, robot icon).
Agent Execution Model
When an agent is assigned a task in Multiflow:
- The daemon detects the task assignment
- It creates an isolated workspace directory
- It spawns the appropriate agent CLI (Antigravity, Claude Code, CodeBuddy, Codex, Copilot, Cursor, Hermes, Kimi, Kiro CLI, OpenCode, OpenClaw, Pi, Qoder, or Trae CLI)
- The agent executes autonomously, streaming progress back to Multiflow
- Results are reported — success, failure, or blockers
The full task lifecycle is: enqueue → claim → start → complete/fail.
Real-time progress is streamed via WebSocket so you can follow along in the Multiflow UI.
Supported Agent Providers
| Provider | CLI Command | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Claude Code | claude | Anthropic's coding agent |
| Codex | codex | OpenAI's coding agent |
| Antigravity | agy | Google's coding agent |
| CodeBuddy | codebuddy | Tencent's Claude Code-compatible coding agent |
| Copilot | copilot | GitHub's coding agent |
| Cursor | cursor-agent | Anysphere's coding agent |
| OpenClaw | openclaw | Open-source coding agent |
| OpenCode | opencode | Open-source coding agent |
| Hermes | hermes | Nous Research coding agent |
| Kimi | kimi | Moonshot coding agent |
| Kiro CLI | kiro-cli | Amazon coding agent |
| Pi | pi | Inflection AI coding agent |
| Qoder | qodercli | Alibaba coding agent |
| Trae CLI | traecli | ByteDance coding agent |
The daemon auto-detects which CLIs are available on your PATH and registers them as available runtimes.
Reusable Skills
Multiflow supports two layers of skills:
- Local skills — Skills already installed in your local runtime (e.g.,
.claude/skills/,.opencode/skills/) are automatically discovered and used by agents. You do not need to upload them to Multiflow. - Workspace skills — Skills created or imported in the Multiflow Skills page are shared across the workspace. They are automatically injected into agent runs as supplementary context, so every team member's agents benefit from them.
Workspace skills are designed for team-wide sharing and collaboration — codify your team's best practices once, and every agent can leverage them:
- Deployments
- Migrations
- Code reviews
- Common patterns
Your skill library compounds over time. Local skills give individual agents their capabilities; workspace skills align the entire team.
Multi-Workspace Support
Each workspace has its own set of agents, issues, and settings. The daemon can watch multiple workspaces simultaneously, routing tasks to the appropriate agent based on workspace configuration.
