Workflow Automation

Automated workflows for multi-agent development

Workflow Automation

Automate multi-agent workflows with PowerShell scripts and GitHub Actions.

End-to-End Workflow

Complete automated workflow from task assignment to PR merge:

Automated Workflow Script

Complete E2E Automation

.\scripts\agent-management\start-multi-agent-e2e-unified.ps1 `
  -NumAgents 2 `
  -Tasks "Implement auth", "Create dashboard" `
  -BaseBranch "develop" `
  -AutoCreatePR $true

This script:

  1. Creates agent worktrees
  2. Assigns tasks
  3. Monitors progress
  4. Auto-creates PRs when complete
  5. Runs quality checks
  6. Notifies on completion

Step-by-Step Workflow

1

Initialize Agents

# Create multiple agent worktrees
$agents = @("agent-1", "agent-2", "agent-3")

foreach ($agent in $agents) {
    .\scripts\agent-management\setup-agent-development.ps1 `
      -AgentName $agent `
      -BaseBranch "develop"
}
2

Assign Tasks

# Update configuration
$config = @{
    agents = @(
        @{
            name = "agent-1"
            tasks = @("Issue #266", "Issue #268")
            role = "Frontend"
        },
        @{
            name = "agent-2"
            tasks = @("Issue #264", "Issue #265")
            role = "Backend"
        }
    )
}

$config | ConvertTo-Json | Set-Content `
  scripts/configuration/agent-assignment-config.json

Monitor Progress

# Poll agent status
while ($true) {
    .\scripts\agent-management\manage-multi-agent-system.ps1 `
      -Action status
    
    Start-Sleep -Seconds 300  # Check every 5 minutes
}
4

Auto-Create PRs

# When agent completes work
.\scripts\pr-management\automate-pr-unified.ps1 `
  -AgentName "agent-1" `
  -Auto $true
5

Quality Checks

# Run automated quality checks
.\scripts\pr-management\pr-quality-checker.ps1 `
  -PRNumber 123

# Analyze PR content
.\scripts\pr-management\pr-analyzer.ps1 `
  -PRNumber 123

Workflow Patterns

Pattern 1: Fire and Forget

Start agents and let them work independently:

# Launch all agents
.\scripts\agent-management\start-multi-agent-e2e-unified.ps1 `
  -NumAgents 3 `
  -Tasks $tasks `
  -MonitorMode "passive"

# Script exits, agents continue working
# Check back later for PRs

Pattern 2: Continuous Monitoring

Active monitoring with intervention:

# Start with monitoring
.\scripts\agent-management\start-multi-agent-e2e-unified.ps1 `
  -NumAgents 3 `
  -Tasks $tasks `
  -MonitorMode "active" `
  -AlertOnIssues $true

# Script stays running, sends alerts
# Human can intervene if needed

Pattern 3: Phased Rollout

Release agents in phases:

# Phase 1: Critical features
.\scripts\agent-management\deploy-agents.ps1 `
  -Phase 1 `
  -Agents "agent-1", "agent-2"

# Wait for completion and validation

# Phase 2: Secondary features
.\scripts\agent-management\deploy-agents.ps1 `
  -Phase 2 `
  -Agents "agent-3", "agent-4"

Integration with CI/CD

GitHub Actions Integration

.github/workflows/agent-ci.yml:

name: Multi-Agent CI

on:
  pull_request:
    branches: [develop]

jobs:
  agent-quality-check:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    if: contains(github.head_ref, 'agent-')
    
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
      
      - name: Setup Node
        uses: actions/setup-node@v3
        with:
          node-version: '18'
      
      - name: Install dependencies
        run: pnpm install
      
      - name: Run tests
        run: pnpm test
      
      - name: Type check
        run: pnpm typecheck
      
      - name: Lint
        run: pnpm lint
      
      - name: Agent quality check
        run: |
          pwsh scripts/pr-management/pr-quality-checker.ps1 `
            -PRNumber ${{ github.event.number }}

Automatic PR Management

Automatically manage agent PRs:

name: Agent PR Management

on:
  pull_request:
    types: [opened]
    branches: [develop]

jobs:
  auto-assign:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Auto-assign to project
        run: |
          pwsh scripts/project-management/manage-projects.ps1 `
            -Action assign `
            -PRNumber ${{ github.event.number }}
      
      - name: Add labels
        run: |
          gh pr edit ${{ github.event.number }} --add-label "multi-agent"

Monitoring & Metrics

Real-time Dashboard

# Start monitoring dashboard
.\scripts\monitoring\real-time-dashboard.ps1 `
  -Mode "multi-agent"

Displays:

  • Active agents
  • Current tasks
  • Progress percentage
  • Estimated completion
  • PR status

Metrics Collection

Track multi-agent system performance:

# Generate metrics
.\scripts\monitoring\automation-metrics.ps1 `
  -Type "multi-agent" `
  -Period "last-30-days"

Metrics include:

  • Agent utilization
  • Average task completion time
  • Conflict rate
  • PR merge time
  • Code quality scores

Advanced Automation

Dynamic Agent Scaling

Automatically scale agents based on workload:

.\scripts\agent-management\auto-scale.ps1 `
  -MinAgents 2 `
  -MaxAgents 5 `
  -ScaleTrigger "queue-depth"

Intelligent Task Assignment

AI-powered task assignment:

.\scripts\agent-management\smart-assign.ps1 `
  -Mode "ai-optimized" `
  -Consider "agent-skills,task-complexity,dependencies"

Conflict Prediction

Predict and prevent conflicts:

.\scripts\agent-management\conflict-predictor.ps1 `
  -AnalyzeInterval 3600 `
  -AlertThreshold 0.7

Error Handling

Automatic Recovery

# Setup error recovery
.\scripts\agent-management\setup-recovery.ps1 `
  -AutoRestart $true `
  -MaxRetries 3 `
  -NotifyOnFailure $true

Rollback Procedures

# Rollback failed agent work
.\scripts\agent-management\rollback-agent.ps1 `
  -AgentName "agent-1" `
  -ToCommit "abc123"

Best Practices

Note:

Workflow Automation Tips:

  1. Start small: Begin with 2 agents
  2. Monitor closely: Watch first few runs
  3. Gradual automation: Add automation incrementally
  4. Error handling: Plan for failures
  5. Logging: Comprehensive logs for debugging
  6. Testing: Test workflows in staging first

Troubleshooting

Workflow Stuck

# Check agent status
.\scripts\agent-management\manage-multi-agent-system.ps1 -Action status

# View logs
Get-Content logs/agent-workflow-*.log

# Restart workflow
.\scripts\agent-management\restart-workflow.ps1

Agent Not Responding

# Check agent health
.\scripts\monitoring\agent-health-check.ps1 -AgentName "agent-1"

# Force restart
.\scripts\agent-management\restart-agent.ps1 -AgentName "agent-1" -Force

PRs Not Created

# Verify PR automation
.\scripts\pr-management\test-pr-automation.ps1

# Manually trigger
.\scripts\pr-management\automate-pr-unified.ps1 -AgentName "agent-1"
