Initialize Coordination Framework

🎯 Key Principle

**This tool coordinates Claude Code's actions. It does NOT write code or create content.**

MCP Tool Usage in Claude Code

**Tool:** `mcp__claude-flow__swarm_init`

Parameters

{"topology": "mesh", "maxAgents": 5, "strategy": "balanced"}

Description

Set up a coordination topology to guide Claude Code's approach to complex tasks

Details

This tool creates a coordination framework that helps Claude Code:

• Break down complex problems systematically
• Approach tasks from multiple perspectives
• Maintain consistency across large projects
• Work more efficiently through structured coordination

Remember: This does NOT create actual coding agents. It creates a coordination pattern for Claude Code to follow.

Example Usage

**In Claude Code:** 1. Use the tool: `mcp__claude-flow__swarm_init` 2. With parameters: `{"topology": "mesh", "maxAgents": 5, "strategy": "balanced"}` 3. Claude Code then executes the coordinated plan using its native tools

Important Reminders

• ✅ This tool provides coordination and structure
• ✅ Claude Code performs all actual implementation
• ❌ The tool does NOT write code
• ❌ The tool does NOT access files directly
• ❌ The tool does NOT execute commands
