Agent Flywheel Methodology: Orchestrating Swarms with Beads-Based Planning
doodlestein · x · 2026-08-22
The author shares the "Agent Flywheel" methodology for software development, centering on the use of "beads"—Markdown-based task units—to orchestrate swarms of AI agents. The approach emphasizes exhaustive planning before coding, breaking down complex tasks into parallelizable beads to achieve compound improvements in speed and safety through iterative cycles. The author claims this workflow, supported by a Rust port and visualization tools, allows for high-frequency orchestration of hundreds of agent instances daily.
