Octi Pulpo

Eight arms. One brain.

Open-source swarm coordination layer for autonomous AI agent fleets. Shared memory, model routing, budget-aware dispatch, and priority signaling โ€” all through standard MCP tools.

The Eight Arms

Everything your agents need to work as a fleet.

๐Ÿงญ

Model Routing

Route tasks to optimal models by cost, capability, and governance tier.

๐Ÿง 

Shared Memory

Vector DB for accumulated knowledge. Redis for hot state. Every agent learns from every run.

๐Ÿค

Agent Coordination

Who's working on what. Assignment dedup, handoffs, claims with auto-expiring TTLs.

๐Ÿ”„

Feedback Loops

Report up (agent to EM to director), get direction down. Structured decision chains.

๐Ÿ”—

Dependency Resolution

Agent A needs agent B's output. Wait, notify, unblock โ€” automatic.

๐Ÿ“š

Learning Aggregation

Collective knowledge across runs. Denial patterns, workarounds, solutions โ€” all shared.

๐Ÿ’“

Health Broadcasting

Heartbeats, blocks, completions. Real-time swarm awareness across every agent.

๐Ÿ“ก

Priority Signaling

Push a directive, every agent sees it immediately. Sprint goals, freeze windows, hot fixes.
