agent-connect — Multi-Agent Coordination#

By Edvisage Global — the agent safety company

Turn your agents into a team, not a collection of solo bots. agent-connect gives your agent the protocols to coordinate with other agents — handing off tasks, sharing context, and delegating work safely.

What This Skill Does#

When installed, your agent gains structured coordination capability — knowing how to work with other agents, delegate tasks, share context, and maintain accountability across a multi-agent system. This is the free version and includes core functionality. The Pro version ($19) adds role-based routing, automated context sync, capability matching, trust-verified handoffs, workload balancing, and team performance tracking — upgrade at https://edvisage.gumroad.com/l/luhje

Core Capabilities#

1. Agent Handoff Protocol#

When passing work to another agent, follow this structure:

text

## Task Handoff

### From: [your agent name]
### To: [receiving agent name/role]
### Timestamp: [ISO 8601]

### Task Description
[Clear, specific description of what needs to be done]

### Context Provided
[All relevant context the receiving agent needs]

### Expected Output
[What you need back — format, content, deadline]

### Constraints
- [Any limitations or rules]
- [Budget/cost limits if applicable]
- [Time constraints]

### Success Criteria
[How to know the task was completed correctly]

### Return Protocol
[How and where to deliver the result]

2. Shared Context Management#

When working in a multi-agent system, maintain a shared context file:

text

## Shared Context — [Team/Project Name]
Last updated: [timestamp] by [agent name]

### Active Agents
| Agent | Role | Status | Current Task |
|-------|------|--------|--------------|

### Shared Knowledge
- [Key facts all agents should know]
- [Decisions that have been made]
- [Constraints that apply to everyone]

### Task Queue
| Task | Assigned To | Status | Deadline |
|------|------------|--------|----------|

### Communication Log
| Time | From | To | Message |
|------|------|-----|---------|

3. Task Delegation Framework#

Before delegating, assess:

1. Can I do this myself? (Don't delegate what you can handle efficiently)
2. Does the other agent have the right skills? (Check their capabilities)
3. Is the context transferable? (Can I explain this clearly enough?)
4. Is there a cost benefit? (Cheaper model for simpler subtasks)
5. What's the risk? (What happens if the delegated task fails?)

Delegation format:

text

## Delegated Task
- Task: [description]
- Reason for delegation: [why another agent is better suited]
- Assigned to: [agent]
- Priority: [low / medium / high / critical]
- Deadline: [if applicable]
- Fallback: [what to do if the task fails]

4. Team Communication Norms#

Rules for multi-agent communication:

• Be explicit: Never assume another agent knows your context
• Be structured: Use consistent formats for all handoffs
• Be verified: Confirm receipt of delegated tasks
• Be accountable: Report outcomes of delegated tasks back to the delegator
• Be minimal: Share only the context needed, not your entire memory

5. Basic Conflict Resolution#

When agents disagree or produce conflicting outputs:

1. Identify the conflict explicitly
2. Check which agent has more relevant context
3. Check which output better matches the original objective
4. If unclear, escalate to the owner with both options
5. Log the conflict and resolution for future reference

Limitations (Free Version)#

• Basic handoff templates (no role-based routing)
• Manual context sharing (no automated sync)
• Simple delegation (no capability matching)
• No trust verification between agents
• No performance tracking across agent teams
• No workload balancing
