BD multi-agent-coordination
Design, diagnose, and evaluate coordination across multiple AI agents and heterogeneous harnesses: decomposition, topology, ownership, communication, distributed context, shared memory, integration, recovery, and collective failure patterns. Use for persistent agent teams, fleets, swarms, agent handoffs, coordination loops, or extracting portable lessons from OpenRig, HERDR and Block/Buzz. Do not use for a single agent's runtime, a named tool's installation or command manual, debate alone, or operating an evaluated production agent; route those to harness-engineering, the tool's documentation, agent-council, or agent-production-operations.
Promises to handle coordination across multiple agents: decomposition, ownership, communication, shared memory, recovery patterns. Claims relevance for agent teams, fleets, handoffs. Contains 48 files and 2 scripts with no critical errors. Quality score 78, process score 49. Broken references and missing files present. No model runs, no sandbox tests. Supports Claude, Cursor, DeepSeek, Mistral and others.
Use for diagnosing multi-agent setups if incomplete documentation is acceptable. Don't rely on it for production coordination—process score is low and no production validation exists.

How to improve
- The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
