Running the Fleet: A Field Guide to Multi-Agent Orchestration

Running the Fleet: A Field Guide to Multi-Agent Orchestration

Summary

You built one agent that knows you cold — its own personality, a memory that survives, skills it runs your way. It's a great employee. It's also still one employee, doing one thing at a time, waiting on you to hand it the next task. This guide is about the next move: turning that single agent into a coordinated fleet that plans, executes, and monitors real goals while you supervise instead of operate.

It's the deep-dive sequel to Building Your Agentic OS — where that guide ended by pointing at the horizon, this one walks the whole distance. We build it on Hermes, because Hermes already ships the hard parts: profiles (every agent a full citizen with its own identity and memory), a durable kanban board that coordinates them, a decomposer that routes a dropped-in goal to the right specialists, and a way to package a whole agent as a git repo and hand it to your team. Concrete throughout, honest about the sharp edges, and built so the foundation you already laid is exactly what scales up.
