Intro

Ruflo is a CLI + MCP stack for orchestrating agent swarms in Claude Code, with one-line install and an MCP server mode you can add via claude mcp add.

  • Best for: Teams coordinating many agent tasks who want a repeatable swarm + plugin workflow
  • Works with: Node.js tooling (npx/npm) + Claude Code MCP
  • Setup time: 10 minutes

Practical Notes

  • Setup time ~10 minutes (install + init wizard)
  • Measurable check: MCP server connects (visible in /mcp) and at least 1 orchestration command runs without errors
  • GitHub stars + forks (verified): see Source & Thanks

Swarm orchestration only pays off if you make it observable and safe:

  • Keep a small set of standardized plugins (test generation, security audit, docs).
  • Gate risky actions behind explicit approval steps.
  • Prefer deterministic inputs (spec files, issue templates) so multiple agents converge.

Start with one workflow (e.g., plan → implement → review) and only then expand into federation/multi-machine setups.
