AgentCo-op: Retrieval-Based Multi-Agent Workflow Synthesis

ai-technology · 2026-05-22

AgentCo-op is a retrieval-based synthesis framework for composing multi-agent workflows in open-ended scientific settings. It assembles reusable skills, tools, and external agents into executable workflows via typed artifact handoffs, applying bounded self-guided local repair when execution fails. In two genomics case studies, AgentCo-op coordinates independently developed agents for spatial transcriptomics and gene-set interpretation without redesign or global topology search. The framework enables collaborative discovery from spatial transcriptomics data and builds parallel workflows for cross-modality tasks.
