# Agent Fleet — Agent Onboarding Guide
This guide explains how to integrate an agent with the Agent Fleet Orchestrator.
---
## Execution Modes
Agent Fleet supports two execution modes. The mode is set per-task at creation time (defaults to `ssh_cli`).
| Aspect | `ssh_cli` | `http_pull` |
|--------|-----------|-------------|
| Who initiates? | Orchestrator (via SSH or local subprocess) | Agent (via HTTP API) |
| Control flow | Orchestrator builds prompt, runs CLI, collects output | Agent decides when to dequeue and execute |
| Agent requirements | CLI binary on a configured host | HTTP client, can call REST API |
| Auth needed? | No (Orchestrator manages) | Yes (Bearer token) |
| Best for | Codex CLI, Claude Code, OpenCode — agents with CLIs | OpenClaw/Jeeves, Hermes — agents with their own schedulers |
| Task creation trigger | Forgejo Issue webhook (default) | Same, or API call |
---
## ssh_cli Workflow
### 1. Configure a Host
Add a `[[hosts]]` section to `config.toml` on the Orchestrator:
```toml
[[hosts]]
host_id = "host-worker-01"
hostname = "192.168.1.100"
ssh_user = "deploy"
ssh_port = 22
ssh_key_path = "/home/deploy/.ssh/id_ed25519"
work_dir = "/opt/agent-workspace"
agents = [
{ agent_type = "codex-cli", max_concurrency = 2, capabilities = ["code:rust", "code:python"] },
]
```
For local execution (same machine as Orchestrator), use `hostname = "localhost"` — the Orchestrator uses a local subprocess instead of SSH.
### 2. Install the Agent CLI
The CLI binary must be available on the target host in `$PATH`. The Orchestrator checks availability with `which <binary>`.
Built-in CLI templates:
| Agent Type | CLI Command |
|------------|-------------|
| `codex-cli` | `codex exec --json '{prompt}'` |
| `claude-code` | `claude -p '{prompt}' --output-format json --dangerously-skip-permissions` |
Custom templates can be defined in `config.toml` under `[adapters]`.
### 3. Orchestrator Handles Everything
When a Forgejo Issue with an `agent:*` label arrives:
1. Orchestrator creates a task (`execution_mode = ssh_cli`)
2. Dispatch loop picks the task, selects a host by capability + load
3. SSH (or local subprocess) executes the CLI with a structured prompt
4. Output is parsed (Codex JSON or Claude JSON format)
5. Task status updates: `created``assigned``running``completed` (or `failed`)
### 4. What the Agent Receives (Structured Prompt)
The Orchestrator constructs this prompt and passes it as the `{prompt}` variable:
```
Task ID: org/repo#42
Type: code
Goal:
Implement the feature described in the issue body
Constraints:
- Execution mode: ssh_cli
- Labels: code:rust
- Branch: task/org%2Frepo%2342
- Expected output: JSON receipt
Validation:
- Run relevant tests if code changed
- Summarize changes and artifacts
```
### 5. Expected CLI Output
The CLI must output JSON to stdout. The format depends on the parser:
**Codex JSON:**
```json
{"status": "completed", "summary": "done", "duration_seconds": 120, "artifacts": [{"artifact_type": "pr", "url": "https://..."}]}
```
**Claude JSON:**
```json
{"status": "completed", "summary": "done", "duration_seconds": 95, "error": null}
```
If output is not valid JSON, the task is marked `failed`.
---
## http_pull Workflow
### 1. Register
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:9090/api/v1/agents/register \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"agent_id": "worker-03", "agent_type": "openclaw", "hostname": "arm0", "capabilities": ["code:rust"], "max_concurrency": 2}'
```
Response contains a `registry_token`. Keep it for subsequent API calls (if `http_pull_token` is configured, use that shared token instead).
### 2. Heartbeat (periodic)
Send a heartbeat every N seconds (default interval: 60s). If the Orchestrator doesn't receive one within `heartbeat_interval_secs × heartbeat_timeout_threshold`, the agent is marked offline and its tasks are requeued.
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:9090/api/v1/agents/heartbeat \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"agent_id": "worker-03"}'
```
### 3. Dequeue a Task
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:9090/api/v1/tasks/dequeue \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
-d '{"agent_id": "worker-03", "capabilities": ["code:rust"]}'
```
Returns `200 OK` with a Task object, or `204 No Content` if nothing available.
Only tasks with `execution_mode = http_pull` are returned.
### 4. Update Status While Working
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:9090/api/v1/tasks/org%2Frepo%2342/status \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
-d '{"status": "running"}'
```
### 5. Complete the Task
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:9090/api/v1/tasks/org%2Frepo%2342/complete \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"task_id": "org/repo#42",
"agent_id": "worker-03",
"status": "completed",
"duration_seconds": 180,
"summary": "Fixed the issue",
"artifacts": [{"artifact_type": "pr", "url": "https://git.example/org/repo/pulls/15"}],
"error": null
}'
```
Or use the receipts endpoint:
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:9090/api/v1/receipts \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '<same receipt body>'
```
### 6. Deregister When Done
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:9090/api/v1/agents/deregister \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"agent_id": "worker-03"}'
```

## Forgejo Integration
### How Issues Become Tasks
1. A Forgejo Issue is opened with a label matching `agent:*` (e.g. `agent:code`)
2. Forgejo sends an `issues` webhook to `POST /api/v1/webhooks/forgejo`
3. The `agent:*` label value becomes `task_type` (e.g. `code`)
4. Priority is inferred from labels: `priority:urgent`, `priority:high`, `priority:low` (default: `normal`)
5. A task is created with:
- `task_id` = `{repo_full_name}#{issue_number}` (e.g. `org/repo#42`)
- `execution_mode` = `ssh_cli` (default for Forgejo-originated tasks)
- `branch_name` = `task/{url_encoded_task_id}` (e.g. `task/org%2Frepo%2342`)
- `pr_title` = `feat: {issue_title} (#{issue_number})`
### Branch Naming Convention
- Branch: `task/{url_encoded_task_id}`
- Example: task `org/repo#42` → branch `task/org%2Frepo%2342`
### PR Lifecycle
| Event | Effect |
|-------|--------|
| PR opened (branch = `task/*`) | Task → `review_pending` |
| PR merged | Task → `completed`, auto receipt generated |
| Push to `task/*` branch | Task `last_activity_at` updated |
### Task Status Flow
```
created → assigned → running → review_pending → completed
↘ failed
↘ agent_lost
↘ cancelled
```
Any `failed` or `agent_lost` task can be retried via `POST /api/v1/tasks/{task_id}/retry` (transitions to `assigned`). Retry is limited by `max_retries` (default: 2).

## Structured Prompt Format (ssh_cli)
When the Orchestrator executes an agent via SSH, it constructs a structured prompt:
```
Task ID: <task_id>
Type: <task_type>
Goal:
<requirements>
Constraints:
- Execution mode: ssh_cli
- Labels: <comma-separated labels or <none>>
- Branch: <branch_name>
- Expected output: JSON receipt
Validation:
- Run relevant tests if code changed
- Summarize changes and artifacts
```
The prompt is injected into the CLI template as the `{prompt}` variable. Other available variables: `{work_dir}`, `{task_id}`, `{branch}`.

## FAQ
**Q: How do I know which execution mode to use?**
A: If you have a CLI binary and run on a configured host → `ssh_cli`. If you have your own scheduler or run outside configured hosts → `http_pull`.
**Q: Do I need to register for ssh_cli mode?**
A: No. The Orchestrator manages ssh_cli tasks entirely. Registration is only for `http_pull` agents.
**Q: What happens if my agent crashes during ssh_cli execution?**
A: The task is marked `failed`. If `retry_count < max_retries`, the dispatch loop will retry automatically.
**Q: What happens if my http_pull agent stops sending heartbeats?**
A: After `heartbeat_interval_secs × heartbeat_timeout_threshold` seconds, the agent is marked offline and all its tasks are requeued with status `created`.
**Q: Can a task switch between execution modes?**
A: No. The `execution_mode` is set at creation time and cannot be changed.
**Q: How do I create a task manually?**
A: Use the Forgejo webhook flow (open an Issue with `agent:*` label), or directly insert into the database. There is no public "create task" API endpoint.
**Q: What label format triggers task creation?**
A: Issues must have a label starting with `agent:` (e.g. `agent:code`, `agent:review`). The value after `agent:` becomes the task type. Issues without such a label are ignored.
**Q: How does the review loop work?**
A: When a PR is opened (not merged), the task goes to `review_pending`. If the PR is not merged and the review cycle count exceeds `max_retries`, the task is marked `failed`. For `ssh_cli`, the Orchestrator re-dispatches automatically.
