Claude Code Configuration - Claude Flow V3

🚨 AUTOMATIC SWARM ORCHESTRATION

When starting work on complex tasks, Claude Code MUST automatically:

  1. Initialize the swarm using CLI tools via Bash
  2. Spawn concurrent agents using Claude Code's Task tool
  3. Coordinate via hooks and memory

🚨 CRITICAL: CLI + Task Tool in SAME Message

When user says "spawn swarm" or requests complex work, Claude Code MUST in ONE message:

  1. Call CLI tools via Bash to initialize coordination
  2. IMMEDIATELY call Task tool to spawn REAL working agents
  3. Both CLI and Task calls must be in the SAME response

CLI coordinates, Task tool agents do the actual work!

🤖 INTELLIGENT 3-TIER MODEL ROUTING (ADR-026)

The routing system has 3 tiers for optimal cost/performance:

Tier Handler Latency Cost Use Cases
1 Agent Booster <1ms $0 Simple transforms (var→const, add-types, remove-console)
2 Haiku ~500ms $0.0002 Simple tasks, bug fixes, low complexity
3 Sonnet/Opus 2-5s $0.003-$0.015 Architecture, security, complex reasoning

Before spawning agents, get routing recommendation:

npx @claude-flow/cli@latest hooks pre-task --description "[task description]"

When you see these recommendations:

  1. [AGENT_BOOSTER_AVAILABLE] → Skip LLM entirely, use Edit tool directly

    • Intent types: var-to-const, add-types, add-error-handling, async-await, add-logging, remove-console
  2. [TASK_MODEL_RECOMMENDATION] Use model="X" → Use that model in Task tool:

Task({
  prompt: "...",
  subagent_type: "coder",
  model: "haiku"  // ← USE THE RECOMMENDED MODEL (haiku/sonnet/opus)
})

Benefits: 75% cost reduction, 352x faster for Tier 1 tasks


🛡️ Anti-Drift Config (PREFERRED)

Use this to prevent agent drift:

# Small teams (6-8 agents) - use hierarchical for tight control
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest swarm init --topology hierarchical --max-agents 8 --strategy specialized

# Large teams (10-15 agents) - use hierarchical-mesh for V3 queen + peer communication
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest swarm init --topology hierarchical-mesh --max-agents 15 --strategy specialized

Valid Topologies:

  • hierarchical - Queen controls workers directly (anti-drift for small teams)
  • hierarchical-mesh - V3 queen + peer communication (recommended for 10+ agents)
  • mesh - Fully connected peer network
  • ring - Circular communication pattern
  • star - Central coordinator with spokes
  • hybrid - Dynamic topology switching

Anti-Drift Guidelines:

  • hierarchical: Coordinator catches divergence
  • max-agents 6-8: Smaller team = less drift
  • specialized: Clear roles, no overlap
  • consensus: raft (leader maintains state)

🔄 Auto-Start Swarm Protocol (Background Execution)

When the user requests a complex task, spawn agents in background and WAIT for completion:

// STEP 1: Initialize swarm coordination (anti-drift config)
Bash("npx @claude-flow/cli@latest swarm init --topology hierarchical --max-agents 8 --strategy specialized")

// STEP 2: Spawn ALL agents IN BACKGROUND in a SINGLE message
// Use run_in_background: true so agents work concurrently
Task({
  prompt: "Research requirements, analyze codebase patterns, store findings in memory",
  subagent_type: "researcher",
  description: "Research phase",
  run_in_background: true  // ← CRITICAL: Run in background
})
Task({
  prompt: "Design architecture based on research. Document decisions.",
  subagent_type: "system-architect",
  description: "Architecture phase",
  run_in_background: true
})
Task({
  prompt: "Implement the solution following the design. Write clean code.",
  subagent_type: "coder",
  description: "Implementation phase",
  run_in_background: true
})
Task({
  prompt: "Write comprehensive tests for the implementation.",
  subagent_type: "tester",
  description: "Testing phase",
  run_in_background: true
})
Task({
  prompt: "Review code quality, security, and best practices.",
  subagent_type: "reviewer",
  description: "Review phase",
  run_in_background: true
})

// STEP 3: WAIT - Tell user agents are working, then STOP
// Say: "I've spawned 5 agents to work on this in parallel. They'll report back when done."
// DO NOT check status repeatedly. Just wait for user or agent responses.

⏸️ CRITICAL: Spawn and Wait Pattern

After spawning background agents:

  1. TELL USER - "I've spawned X agents working in parallel on: [list tasks]"
  2. STOP - Do not continue with more tool calls
  3. WAIT - Let the background agents complete their work
  4. RESPOND - When agents return results, review and synthesize

Example response after spawning:

I've launched 5 concurrent agents to work on this:
- 🔍 Researcher: Analyzing requirements and codebase
- 🏗️ Architect: Designing the implementation approach
- 💻 Coder: Implementing the solution
- 🧪 Tester: Writing tests
- 👀 Reviewer: Code review and security check

They're working in parallel. I'll synthesize their results when they complete.

🚫 DO NOT:

  • Continuously check swarm status
  • Poll TaskOutput repeatedly
  • Add more tool calls after spawning
  • Ask "should I check on the agents?"

DO:

  • Spawn all agents in ONE message
  • Tell user what's happening
  • Wait for agent results to arrive
  • Synthesize results when they return

🧠 AUTO-LEARNING PROTOCOL

Before Starting Any Task

# 1. Search memory for relevant patterns from past successes
Bash("npx @claude-flow/cli@latest memory search --query '[task keywords]' --namespace patterns")

# 2. Check if similar task was done before
Bash("npx @claude-flow/cli@latest memory search --query '[task type]' --namespace tasks")

# 3. Load learned optimizations
Bash("npx @claude-flow/cli@latest hooks route --task '[task description]'")

After Completing Any Task Successfully

# 1. Store successful pattern for future reference
Bash("npx @claude-flow/cli@latest memory store --namespace patterns --key '[pattern-name]' --value '[what worked]'")

# 2. Train neural patterns on the successful approach
Bash("npx @claude-flow/cli@latest hooks post-edit --file '[main-file]' --train-neural true")

# 3. Record task completion with metrics
Bash("npx @claude-flow/cli@latest hooks post-task --task-id '[id]' --success true --store-results true")

# 4. Trigger optimization worker if performance-related
Bash("npx @claude-flow/cli@latest hooks worker dispatch --trigger optimize")

Continuous Improvement Triggers

Trigger Worker When to Use
After major refactor optimize Performance optimization
After adding features testgaps Find missing test coverage
After security changes audit Security analysis
After API changes document Update documentation
Every 5+ file changes map Update codebase map
Complex debugging deepdive Deep code analysis

Memory-Enhanced Development

ALWAYS check memory before:

  • Starting a new feature (search for similar implementations)
  • Debugging an issue (search for past solutions)
  • Refactoring code (search for learned patterns)
  • Performance work (search for optimization strategies)

ALWAYS store in memory after:

  • Solving a tricky bug (store the solution pattern)
  • Completing a feature (store the approach)
  • Finding a performance fix (store the optimization)
  • Discovering a security issue (store the vulnerability pattern)

📋 Agent Routing (Anti-Drift)

Code Task Agents
1 Bug Fix coordinator, researcher, coder, tester
3 Feature coordinator, architect, coder, tester, reviewer
5 Refactor coordinator, architect, coder, reviewer
7 Performance coordinator, perf-engineer, coder
9 Security coordinator, security-architect, auditor
11 Docs researcher, api-docs

Codes 1-9: hierarchical/specialized (anti-drift). Code 11: mesh/balanced

🎯 Task Complexity Detection

AUTO-INVOKE SWARM when task involves:

  • Multiple files (3+)
  • New feature implementation
  • Refactoring across modules
  • API changes with tests
  • Security-related changes
  • Performance optimization
  • Database schema changes

SKIP SWARM for:

  • Single file edits
  • Simple bug fixes (1-2 lines)
  • Documentation updates
  • Configuration changes
  • Quick questions/exploration

🚨 CRITICAL: CONCURRENT EXECUTION & FILE MANAGEMENT

ABSOLUTE RULES:

  1. ALL operations MUST be concurrent/parallel in a single message
  2. NEVER save working files, text/mds and tests to the root folder
  3. ALWAYS organize files in appropriate subdirectories
  4. USE CLAUDE CODE'S TASK TOOL for spawning agents concurrently, not just MCP

MANDATORY PATTERNS:

  • TodoWrite: ALWAYS batch ALL todos in ONE call (5-10+ todos minimum)
  • Task tool (Claude Code): ALWAYS spawn ALL agents in ONE message with full instructions
  • File operations: ALWAYS batch ALL reads/writes/edits in ONE message
  • Bash commands: ALWAYS batch ALL terminal operations in ONE message
  • Memory operations: ALWAYS batch ALL memory store/retrieve in ONE message

📁 File Organization Rules

NEVER save to root folder. Use these directories:

  • /src - Source code files
  • /tests - Test files
  • /docs - Documentation and markdown files
  • /config - Configuration files
  • /scripts - Utility scripts
  • /examples - Example code

Project Config (Anti-Drift Defaults)

  • Topology: hierarchical (prevents drift)
  • Max Agents: 8 (smaller = less drift)
  • Strategy: specialized (clear roles)
  • Consensus: raft
  • Memory: hybrid
  • HNSW: Enabled
  • Neural: Enabled

🧠 Intelligence System (RuVector)

V3 includes the RuVector Intelligence System:

  • SONA: Self-Optimizing Neural Architecture (<0.05ms adaptation)
  • MoE: Mixture of Experts for specialized routing
  • HNSW: 150x-12,500x faster pattern search
  • EWC++: Elastic Weight Consolidation (prevents forgetting)
  • Flash Attention: 2.49x-7.47x speedup

The 4-step intelligence pipeline:

  1. RETRIEVE - Fetch relevant patterns via HNSW
  2. JUDGE - Evaluate with verdicts (success/failure)
  3. DISTILL - Extract key learnings via LoRA
  4. CONSOLIDATE - Prevent catastrophic forgetting via EWC++

📦 Embeddings Package (v3.0.0-alpha.12)

Features:

  • sql.js: Cross-platform SQLite persistent cache (WASM, no native compilation)
  • Document chunking: Configurable overlap and size
  • Normalization: L2, L1, min-max, z-score
  • Hyperbolic embeddings: Poincaré ball model for hierarchical data
  • 75x faster: With agentic-flow ONNX integration
  • Neural substrate: Integration with RuVector

🐝 Hive-Mind Consensus

Topologies

  • hierarchical - Queen controls workers directly
  • mesh - Fully connected peer network
  • hierarchical-mesh - Hybrid (recommended)
  • adaptive - Dynamic based on load

Consensus Strategies

  • byzantine - BFT (tolerates f < n/3 faulty)
  • raft - Leader-based (tolerates f < n/2)
  • gossip - Epidemic for eventual consistency
  • crdt - Conflict-free replicated data types
  • quorum - Configurable quorum-based

Remember: Claude Flow CLI coordinates, Claude Code Task tool creates!

important-instruction-reminders

Do what has been asked; nothing more, nothing less. NEVER create files unless they're absolutely necessary for achieving your goal. ALWAYS prefer editing an existing file to creating a new one. NEVER proactively create documentation files (*.md) or README files. Only create documentation files if explicitly requested by the User. Never save working files, text/mds and tests to the root folder.

🚨 SWARM EXECUTION RULES (CRITICAL)

  1. SPAWN IN BACKGROUND: Use run_in_background: true for all agent Task calls
  2. SPAWN ALL AT ONCE: Put ALL agent Task calls in ONE message for parallel execution
  3. TELL USER: After spawning, list what each agent is doing (use emojis for clarity)
  4. STOP AND WAIT: After spawning, STOP - do NOT add more tool calls or check status
  5. NO POLLING: Never poll TaskOutput or check swarm status - trust agents to return
  6. SYNTHESIZE: When agent results arrive, review ALL results before proceeding
  7. NO CONFIRMATION: Don't ask "should I check?" - just wait for results

Example spawn message:

"I've launched 4 agents in background:
- 🔍 Researcher: [task]
- 💻 Coder: [task]
- 🧪 Tester: [task]
- 👀 Reviewer: [task]
Working in parallel - I'll synthesize when they complete."
