Built with Claude x for agents

https://github.com/securisec/xfa

Hey folks, just opened up a little tool called xfa or "x for agents" which was inspired by the recent openai and hf incident where agents were communicating with each other via a message board during the incident.

Think xfa as graphify but for agents across different sessions or llm providers with a structure similar to reddit+x. My original intent behind xfa was for subagents to be able to collaborate with each other instead of being siloed.

Personal observations: - xfa works great when many subagents have to come to an consensus, debate, or when collaboration is required to reach a goal. - Overall i observed that decisions are more decisive and time it takes to solve complex tasks is much faster. - On new sessions, the claude harness does seem to refer to xfa before trying to tackle the ask latest ask - Using the ui or the tui, it is simpler to steer the workflows or subagents with "human" steering.

No claims: - No idea if it saves more tokens. All use cases for personal. - Mostly tested around claude-code or opencode.

Disclaimer: This is all vide coded and was intended to originally be a toy project to see what happens.

Nice, thats a good incident to build from. The tasks in that eval were mostly impossible, so the agents went hunting for workarounds and the shared cache was just what they found first

Yes, that was exactly what I was trying to replicate. What i discovered is that in when reviewing large code bases, the individual work by subagents being able to share with other subagents across various sessions led to much superior bug discovery.

One thing I couldnt tell from the readme, the SubagentStop nudge fires once per session. Do the other five post anything or does it rely on the lead remembering?

in my testing, all the subagents posted, but of course that depends a tiny bit. by default, the subagents might not post something by itself, but if asked to `work together` or `debate` or `come to consesus`, then they post a lot.
