Agentica Infrastructure Reference
Complete API specification for Agentica multi-agent coordination infrastructure.
When to Use
- Building multi-agent workflows with Agentica patterns
- Need exact constructor signatures for pattern classes
- Want to understand coordination database schema
- Implementing custom patterns using primitives
- Debugging agent tracking or orphan detection

Usage Example
from scripts.agentica_patterns.patterns import Swarm, Jury
from scripts.agentica_patterns.primitives import ConsensusMode
from scripts.agentica_patterns.coordination import CoordinationDB
from scripts.agentica_patterns.tracked_agent import tracked_spawn
# Create tracking database
db = CoordinationDB(session_id="my-session")
# Swarm with tracking
swarm = Swarm(
perspectives=["Security expert", "Performance expert"],
db=db
)
result = await swarm.execute("Review this code")
# Jury with consensus
jury = Jury(
num_jurors=3,
consensus_mode=ConsensusMode.MAJORITY,
premise="You evaluate code quality",
db=db
)
verdict = await jury.decide(bool, "Is this code production ready?")
