11. Coordination Protocol

Scan: who/coordination/ for cross-agent communication — urgency levels (urgent/info/fyi), ephemeral notes, required contents.

Decisions: D9

11.1 Cross-Agent Coordination

Cross-agent notes live in who/coordination/. This is the single location for agent-to-agent communication.

Coordination notes are ephemeral by design: created when needed, consumed by the target agent, and archived when resolved.

11.2 Urgency Levels

LevelMeaningWhen to Read
urgentImmediate action neededRead before any other work
infoImportant contextRead during startup checklist
fyiNon-blocking background informationRead when convenient

11.3 Coordination Note Contents

A coordination note MUST include:

  • Who created it and who it targets
  • What the coordination concern is
  • When it was created and when it expires
  • Action needed — what the target agent should do

Agents MUST check who/coordination/ during every session startup.
