Swarm

Swarm is Alfrada's multi-agent mode. It is useful when one agent should not be responsible for everything.
When Swarm Shines
- complex research with multiple sub-questions
- strategy work that benefits from challenge and synthesis
- code or document review where one pass is not enough
- deliverables that need planning, execution, and QA
What To Expect
When you use Swarm, Alfrada can:
- break the work into sub-tasks
- coordinate multiple roles
- ask for feedback or clarification when needed
- surface progress in the dedicated

How To Prompt Swarm Well
Ask for roles and quality checks directly.
Swarm prompt pattern
Use Swarm mode for this task. Split the work into research, synthesis, and QA. Challenge assumptions, reconcile disagreements, and return one final answer with explicit confidence levels and unresolved risks.This gives the multi-agent system permission to decompose, critique, and converge instead of producing a shallow single-pass answer.
When Not To Use It
Avoid Swarm for:
- very small edits
- tasks where speed matters more than depth
- simple fact lookup
- quick formatting or rewriting jobs
Review Habit
The best Swarm sessions usually include at least one user checkpoint:
- approve the decomposition
- answer the clarifying question
- redirect once before final output
