## 🧠 What Makes Acolytes for Claude Code REVOLUTIONARY?

### 🚀 BREAKTHROUGH: Enterprise FLAGS Coordination System

**READY**: Acolytes for Claude Code features a sophisticated cross-agent communication protocol that enables seamless coordination between 59 agents. The FLAGS system operates through SQLite database, ensuring no information loss and perfect task handoffs.

#### **FLAGS System Success Stories**

- ✅ **Zero Information Loss**: Perfect context preservation between agent handoffs
- ✅ **Automatic Coordination**: Agents create FLAGS when they detect cross-domain issues
- ✅ **Lock/Unlock Workflows**: Bidirectional communication for complex problem solving
- ✅ **Enterprise Reliability**: Production-tested coordination with audit trails

#### **FLAGS Workflow Example** (Fully Automated)

```
USER> "Add OAuth to my API endpoints"
  ↓
Claude → 📞 @service.auth (OAuth implementation) [AUTO-ROUTED]
  ↓
@service.auth → 🚩 FLAG: "Need users table schema update" [AUTO-DETECTED]
  ↓
Claude → 📞 @database.postgres (schema migration) [AUTO-COORDINATED]
  ↓
@database.postgres → ✅ Adds oauth_provider, refresh_token columns [AUTO-EXECUTED]
  ↓
@service.auth → 🔓 FLAG resolved → ✅ Implements OAuth flow [AUTO-COMPLETED]
  ↓
Claude → 🎯 "OAuth implemented with Google & GitHub providers"
```

**🤖 Everything happens automatically - no manual coordination needed!**

### 🏗️ Advanced Multi-Agent Architecture

#### **[59 Global Agents](./acolytes/data/resources/rules/agent-routing-catalog.md)**

- **Backend**: API, Go, Java, Laravel, Node.js, Python, Rust, Serverless
- **Frontend**: Angular, React, Vue, Mobile
- **Database**: PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, MariaDB, SQLite, pgvector, PostGIS, Vectorial
- **DevOps**: Bash, CI/CD, Containers, Git, IaC, Monitoring, Performance, Troubleshooting, Webserver
- **Business**: Billing, Payments, Subscriptions
- **Services**: AI/ML, Auth, Communication, Data Processing, Integrations, Mapbox
- **Coordinators**: Backend, Frontend, Database, DevOps, Infrastructure, Migration, Security, Testing
- **Analysis**: Data Analysis, Strategic Planning, Compliance, Security Audit
- **Documentation**: Specialist
- **Testing**: Quality Assurance
- **System**: Setup (5 agents), FLAGS, Planning

#### **Acolytes** (Auto-Created per Project)

- One expert agent per detected module (acolyte.auth, acolyte.api, etc.)
- Deep module knowledge stored in 14-memory SQLite system
- Created during `/setup` Phase 6 via `@setup.acolytes-creator`

### 🎯 Intelligent Agent Routing System

**17-rule anti-ambiguity system** eliminates agent selection errors:

- **Strategy vs Implementation**: Coordinators for decisions, specialists for execution
- **RAG/Vector Search**: PostgreSQL+embeddings → `@database.pgvector`, Any vector platform → `@database.vectorial`
- **Auth vs Security**: OAuth/JWT → `@service.auth`, Architecture/compliance → `@coordinator.security`
- **Multi-Agent Workflows**: Sequential, parallel, and coordinated execution patterns

cd Acolytes

# Install package
pip install -e .

# Initialize Acolytes system
acolytes init

# Navigate to YOUR project  
cd /path/to/your/project

# Open Claude with safety bypass (⚠️ hooks protect against malicious commands)
claude --dangerously-skip-permissions -c

````

### Available Commands
| Command       | Description                                           | Agent Integration                 |
| ------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------- |
| `/setup`      | Integrates Acolytes into your project (new or existing) - 6-phase analysis | 5 setup agents + Acolytes creation |
| `/commit`     | Smart commits with auto-versioning, changelog, and git tagging | `@docs.specialist` + bump2version |
| `/pr`         | Create pull request with comprehensive analysis       | `@ops.git` + review agents       |
| `/flags`      | Process pending FLAGS from agents                     | `@flags.agent` coordinator        |
| `/save`       | Save current session to SQLite database               | Session persistence               |  |

### How Claude Orchestrates

**Claude auto-selects the right agent based on context:**
- USER> "Optimize my API endpoints" → Claude automatically invokes `@backend.python` or `@backend.nodejs`
- USER> "The authentication is broken" → Claude knows to invoke `@service.auth`
- USER> "Add payment processing to my app" → Claude orchestrates `@business.payment` + `@database.postgres` + `@backend.api`

**Or you can explicitly request an agent:**
- USER> "Use @database.postgres to fix the indexing issues" → Claude directs task to specified agent
- USER> "Ask @coordinator.security about compliance requirements" → Claude consults the security coordinator

mcp-server-fetch:      # External API interactions  
sequential-thinking:   # Complex reasoning chains
playwright:            # Browser automation and testing
context7:              # Advanced context management
```

**Optional MCPs:**
```yaml
mcp-server-sqlite:     # Database operations (if needed)
mcp-server-git:        # Git operations (if needed)
n8n-mcp:               # Workflow automation
21st-dev_magic:        # UI/UX enhancements
```

## 🚀 Real-World Usage Examples

### Example 1: Authentication System (Automatic Orchestration)

```
USER> "Implement OAuth authentication with Google and GitHub"
```

Claude automatically orchestrates:
1. `@coordinator.security` → Recommends OAuth2 + JWT hybrid approach
2. `@service.auth` → Implements OAuth flow with passport.js
3. `@database.postgres` → Creates users, sessions, oauth_providers tables
4. `@backend.nodejs` → Integrates middleware and endpoints
5. `@frontend.react` → Builds login components with provider buttons

**Result:** Complete OAuth system in one request, all coordinated via FLAGS

### Example 2: Performance Crisis (FLAGS in Action)

```
USER> "The API is timing out on user searches"
```

Automatic FLAGS workflow:
1. Claude → `@acolyte.api` analyzes endpoints
2. `@acolyte.api` → 🚩 FLAG: "Missing database indexes on search columns"
3. Claude → `@database.postgres` processes FLAG
4. `@database.postgres` → Adds indexes, detects another issue
5. `@database.postgres` → 🚩 FLAG: "Redis cache not configured for search"
6. Claude → `@database.redis` implements caching
7. **Result:** 2.3s → 87ms response time (26x faster)

### Example 3: Complex Migration (Multi-Agent Coordination)

```
USER> "Migrate from MongoDB to PostgreSQL"
```

Coordinated execution:
1. `@coordinator.migration` → Creates migration strategy
2. `@database.mongodb` + `@database.postgres` → Schema mapping
3. FLAGS created for data type mismatches
4. `@backend.nodejs` → Updates all queries and models
5. `@ops.monitoring` → Sets up migration monitoring
6. Rollback plan stored in SQLite for safety

All decisions preserved in Jobs system for future reference
