Your AI writes the code.
Swarm makes sure it actually works.
Turn a single AI coding agent into a team of nine. One agent writes. A different agent reviews. Another tests. Nothing ships until every check passes.
Built for Production Quality
Every feature designed to ship code that actually works in the real world.
Multi-Agent System
9 specialized agents working in concert. Architect, coder, reviewer, test engineer, and more—each with a specific role.
Different Models Review
Coder and reviewer use different AI models. Different training data means different blind spots get caught.
Every Task Tested
Test engineer writes and runs tests for every task. Includes adversarial edge cases and coverage checks.
Security Built-In
Offline SAST scanning, secret detection, and security-focused code review. Nothing ships with vulnerabilities.
Persistent State
All progress saved to disk. Close your laptop, come back next week—pick up exactly where you left off.
Learns From Mistakes
Retrospectives after each phase. Lessons captured in a knowledge base that carries into future phases and projects.
Quality Gates
Syntax, imports, linting, build checks, security scans. Every task passes through a fixed QA pipeline.
Plan Before Code
Critic reviews the entire plan before any code is written. No wasted effort on approaches that won't work.
One Task at a Time
Sequential execution with full context. No parallel conflicts or coordination overhead. Slower per-task, but you don't redo work.
Why Swarm Wins
Most AI coding tools ask the same model to write and review its own code. That's like proofreading your own essay—you'll miss the same mistakes you made while writing it.

The More You Use It, The Smarter It Gets
Swarm doesn't just complete tasks — it builds institutional memory. Lessons learned in one project automatically benefit every project that follows.
Swarm-Level
Project-Specific Knowledge
- Lessons from retrospectives
- Patterns that worked
- Decisions made & why
- Mistakes to avoid
.swarm/knowledge.jsonlMax 100 entries per project
High confidence
& high utility
Hive-Level
Cross-Project Wisdom
- Best practices across all projects
- Proven architectural patterns
- Security lessons learned
- Performance optimizations
~/.config/opencode/hive-knowledge.jsonlMax 1000 entries — shared globally
Confidence Scoring
Each lesson gets scored for reliability. Only high-confidence entries (≥0.8) get promoted to the hive.
Automatic Promotion
After 30 days, proven lessons with high utility automatically become available to all your swarms.
Smart Injection
When starting new projects, relevant hive knowledge is injected — the architect never starts from zero.
Your Entire Organization's Coding Wisdom — In One Place
Other AI tools start fresh every session, making the same mistakes over and over. Swarm builds institutional memory. That security vulnerability you caught on Project A? Swarm won't let it happen on Project B. That elegant pattern you discovered? It's now part of every project's foundation. The hive grows smarter with every line of code.
How It Actually Works
From your request to production-ready code—here's what happens behind the scenes.
You Ask
"Build me a JWT auth system." Swarm asks clarifying questions only when it can't infer the answer.
Explorer Scans
Understands what already exists in your codebase. No duplicate work, no conflicting implementations.
SME Consults
Domain experts provide guidance on security, APIs, databases—whatever your project needs. Cached for reuse.
Plan Reviewed
Architect writes a phased plan. Critic reviews it before any code is written. No wasted effort on bad approaches.
Code & Review
Coder implements one task at a time. Different model reviews for correctness and security. Test engineer writes and runs tests.
Ship with Confidence
Every line tested, reviewed, and secured. Documentation updated. Retrospective captured for continuous improvement.
