Swarm Factory — Development skill for Claude Code

🧪 LabRat

Autonomous Multi-Agent Research Orchestrator

[](https://usaid22.github.io/swarm-factory/)

**Turn your research chaos into a symphony of intelligent agents.** LabRat is not an experiment tracker. It is a **self-organizing colony of AI research assistants** that autonomously explore hypotheses, allocate market-style computational credits, and produce reproducible findings—all coordinated through a single YAML configuration.

🧬 Overview

Imagine a research lab where every scientist is an AI agent, each with a unique specialization, budget, and communication protocol. LabRat orchestrates these agents using **market-based resource allocation**, where compute, API quota, and memory are traded like commodities.

Your role? **Chief Scientist.** You define the experimental frontier; the colony navigates it.

✨ Feature Constellation

• 🧠 Multi-Agent Brain Trust – Deploy specialized agents (mining, synthesis, validation, critique) that collaborate without human babysitting.
• 📊 Market-Allocation Engine – Agents earn "lab credits" for high-value discoveries and spend them on compute, API calls, or memory priority.
• 🔬 Autonomous Research Loops – Define a seed hypothesis; LabRat iterates until statistical saturation or budget exhaustion.
• 🌍 Multilingual Research Support – Agents read papers in 32+ languages, synthesize findings in your chosen output language.
• 🕵️ Claude Code Integration – Use Anthropic’s API for deep reas
