rocket_launch Getting Started

AI Spawn is a multi-agent development orchestration platform that enables parallel development workflows using intelligent AI agents. Each agent specializes in different aspects of development, working together to accelerate your project delivery.

What AI Spawn Does

AI Spawn coordinates multiple AI agents to handle different development tasks simultaneously:

• Planning and architecture decisions
• Code generation and implementation
• Testing and quality assurance
• Documentation and deployment
• Real-time progress monitoring

download Installation

Prerequisites

Before installing AI Spawn, ensure you have:

• Node.js 18 or higher
• npm or yarn package manager
• Git (for project management)

Install via npm

npm install -g aispawn

Install from Source

git clone https://github.com/your-org/aispawn.git
cd aispawn
npm install
npm run build
npm link

Verify Installation

Confirm AI Spawn is installed correctly:

spawn --version

play_arrow Basic Usage

Monitor your agents in real-time:

spawn status

settings Configuration

AI Spawn uses a spawn.config.js file for project configuration.

Basic Configuration

// spawn.config.js
module.exports = {
  agents: {
    planner: { enabled: true },
    developer: { enabled: true, count: 2 },
    tester: { enabled: true },
    documenter: { enabled: false }
  },
  orchestration: {
    parallel: true,
    maxConcurrent: 4
  }
};

Agent Configuration

Each agent type can be configured individually:

• enabled: Whether the agent type is active
• count: Number of agents to spawn (for scalable agents)
• config: Agent-specific configuration options

psychology Agents

AI Spawn includes several specialized agent types:

Planning Agent

Analyzes requirements and creates development plans.

• Architecture decisions
• Task breakdown
• Dependency mapping

Development Agents

Handle code implementation and feature development.

• Code generation
• Feature implementation
• Refactoring and optimization

Testing Agent

Ensures code quality and functionality.

• Unit test generation
• Integration testing
• Performance validation

hub Orchestration

The orchestrator coordinates agent activities and manages task distribution.

Parallel Execution

Agents work simultaneously on different aspects of your project:

• Automatic task dependency resolution
• Load balancing across agents
• Real-time progress tracking

Agent Communication

Agents share context and coordinate through the orchestrator:

• Shared project state
• Inter-agent messaging
• Conflict resolution

code API Reference

AI Spawn provides both CLI and programmatic APIs.

CLI Commands

spawn init [project-name]    # Initialize new project
spawn start                   # Start orchestrator
spawn status                  # View agent status
spawn stop                    # Stop all agents
spawn config                  # View configuration

Programmatic API

const { Orchestrator } = require('aispawn');

const orchestrator = new Orchestrator({
  agents: ['planner', 'developer', 'tester']
});

await orchestrator.start();
const status = await orchestrator.getStatus();
