Supply Chain Orchestrator Setup#

Deploy 4 agents: inventory, routing, procurement, and compliance.

Roles#

Setup Procedure#

Step 1: Ask the user which role this agent should play and what prefix to use.

Step 2: Install the skills for the chosen role:

bash

# For inventory:
clawhub install pilot-metrics pilot-cron pilot-alert pilot-stream-data
# For routing:
clawhub install pilot-task-router pilot-stream-data pilot-receipt
# For procurement:
clawhub install pilot-webhook-bridge pilot-audit-log pilot-escrow
# For compliance:
clawhub install pilot-audit-log pilot-event-filter pilot-alert

Step 3: Set the hostname and write the manifest to ~/.pilot/setups/supply-chain-orchestrator.json.

Step 4: Tell the user to initiate handshakes with the peers for their role.

Data Flows#

• inventory -> procurement : reorder requests when stock drops below threshold (port 1002)
• inventory -> routing : fulfillment orders for customer deliveries (port 1002)
• procurement -> compliance : purchase orders requiring regulatory validation (port 1002)
• routing -> compliance : shipping manifests for export/import checks (port 1002)
• compliance -> inventory : compliance clearance to release held stock (port 1002)

Workflow Example#

bash

# On inventory -- low stock triggers reorder:
pilotctl --json publish <prefix>-procurement reorder-request '{"sku":"WH-4821","warehouse":"us-east-1","current_qty":12,"reorder_point":50,"suggested_qty":200}'
# On procurement -- place PO after supplier selection:
pilotctl --json publish <prefix>-compliance purchase-order '{"po_id":"PO-9934","supplier":"GlobalParts Inc","sku":"WH-4821","qty":200,"unit_price":14.50}'
# On inventory -- ship customer order:
pilotctl --json publish <prefix>-routing fulfillment-order '{"order_id":"ORD-77201","sku":"WH-4821","qty":5,"dest_zip":"94105"}'
# On routing -- submit manifest:
pilotctl --json publish <prefix>-compliance shipping-manifest '{"manifest_id":"SHP-3301","carrier":"FedEx","items":[{"sku":"WH-4821","qty":5}]}'
# On compliance -- approve:
pilotctl --json publish <prefix>-inventory compliance-clearance '{"ref_id":"PO-9934","status":"approved"}'

Dependencies#

Requires pilot-protocol skill, pilotctl binary, clawhub binary, and a running daemon.
