# Agent Organization Manager
Build a multi-department AI agent company with clear hierarchy, communication, and accountability.
## Core Concept
One agent = one department. Each department has a role, a communication channel, and accountability. The CEO agent (main) orchestrates; department agents execute.
## Step 1: Create ROSTER.md
Create `company/shared/ROSTER.md` — the company directory:
```markdown
# Company Roster
| Department | Agent ID | Role | Priority |
|------------|----------|------|----------|
| CEO | main | Strategy, decisions, orchestration | P0 |
| Admin | admin | Operations, scheduling, logistics | P0 |
| Data | datacenter | Infrastructure, data, monitoring | P0 |
| Inspector | inspector | Quality audit, compliance checks | P0 |
| Legal | legal | Compliance, risk review | P1 |
| Finance | finance | Cost tracking, token budgets | P1 |
| Brand | brand | Content, marketing, publishing | P1 |
| Sales | sales | Outreach, conversion, revenue | P1 |
```
## Step 2: Communication Protocol
### Primary: sessions_send (real-time)
```
sessions_send agentId="admin" message="@admin Assign today's tasks"
```
### Async: Shared message files
Write to `company/shared/messages/MSG-{from}-{to}-{timestamp}.md`
### Alerts: Shared alert files
Write to `company/shared/alerts/ALERT-{level}-{timestamp}.md`
Levels: INFO / WARN / FLAG / KILL_SWITCH
### Broadcast: All-department
Write to `company/shared/broadcast/BC-{timestamp}.md`
### Routing Rules
- Unknown recipient → admin
- Compliance → legal
- Violations → inspector
- Data requests → datacenter
- Budget → finance
## Step 3: Daily Report System
Each department reports daily via cron. Use `sessions_send` to main (not `message` tool — it may fail in isolated sessions).
Cron payload pattern:
```json
{
"kind": "agentTurn",
"message": "You are [dept]. Daily report: list today's completed work, pending items, next steps. Send sessions_send to main. Do NOT use message tool.",
"model": "zai/glm-4-flash",
"lightContext": true
}
```
Stagger report times (e.g., 22:00, 22:03, 22:06...) to avoid rate limits.
## Step 4: Learning System
Each department learns daily in its domain. Stagger morning times (e.g., 07:30-08:30).
```json
{
"name": "Learning · [Dept]",
"schedule": {"kind": "cron", "expr": "30 7 * * *", "tz": "Asia/Shanghai"},
"payload": {
"kind": "agentTurn",
"message": "You are [dept]. Search 1-2 trends in [domain]. Write ~300 words to company/departments/[dept]/learning_YYYYMMDD.md.",
"model": "zai/glm-4-flash",
"lightContext": true
}
}
```
## Step 5: Inspection System
Inspector agent audits all departments on schedule (e.g., 10:00, 14:00, 22:00).
Checks:
- Are daily reports filed?
- Are learning notes written?
- Are published outputs on schedule?
- Flag anomalies, escalate consecutive failures
## Step 6: Communication Anti-Patterns
**Never do this:**
- Single point of communication (one channel = one failure = total blackout)
- Direct message tool in isolated sessions (may lack auth config)
- Cross-department file writes (causes data pollution)
**Always do this:**
- Multiple parallel communication paths (sessions_send + shared files + cron)
- Department workspaces stay isolated
- Shared info goes through designated channels only
