<i>Scaling AI with collaborative, continuously improving agents</i>
</p>
MassGen is a cutting-edge multi-agent system that leverages the power of collaborative AI to solve complex tasks. It assigns a task to multiple AI agents who work in parallel, observe each other's progress, and refine their approaches to converge on the best solution to deliver a comprehensive and high-quality result. The power of this "parallel study group" approach is exemplified by advanced systems like xAI's Grok Heavy and Google DeepMind's Gemini Deep Think.
This project started with the "threads of thought" and "iterative refinement" ideas presented in [The Myth of Reasoning](https://docs.ag2.ai/latest/docs/blog/2025/04/16/Reasoning/), and extends the classic "multi-agent conversation" idea in [AG2](https://github.com/ag2ai/ag2). Here is a [video recording](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xM2Uguw1UsQ) of the background context introduction presented at the Berkeley Agentic AI Summit 2025.

classDef hub fill:#e8f5e8,stroke:#388e3c,stroke-width:2px
class O orchestrator
class A1,A2,A3,A4 agent
class H hub
```
The system's workflow is defined by the following key principles:
**Parallel Processing** - Multiple agents tackle the same task simultaneously, each leveraging their unique capabilities (different models, tools, and specialized approaches).
**Real-time Collaboration** - Agents continuously share their working summaries and insights through a notification system, allowing them to learn from each other's approaches and build upon collective knowledge.
**Convergence Detection** - The system intelligently monitors when agents have reached stability in their solutions and achieved consensus through natural collaboration rather than forced agreement.
**Adaptive Coordination** - Agents can restart and refine their work when they receive new insights from others, creating a dynamic and responsive problem-solving environment.
This collaborative approach ensures that the final output leverages collective intelligence from multiple AI systems, leading to more robust and well-rounded results than any single agent could achieve alone.

- **Other Backends**: Via [MCP Filesystem Server](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers/blob/main/src%2Ffilesystem%2FREADME.md)
**Workspace Management:**
- **Isolated Workspaces**: Each agent's `cwd` is fully isolated and writable
- **Snapshot Storage**: Share workspace context between Claude Code agents
- **Temporary Workspaces**: Agents can access previous coordination results
→ [View more filesystem examples](massgen/configs/tools/filesystem/)
> ⚠️ **IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING**
>
> MassGen agents can **autonomously read, write, modify, and delete files** within their permitted directories.
>
> **Before running MassGen with filesystem access:**
> - Only grant access to directories you're comfortable with agents modifying
> - Use the permission system to restrict write access where needed
> - Consider testing in an isolated directory or virtual environment first
> - Back up important files before granting write access
> - Review the `context_paths` configuration carefully
>
> The agents will execute file operations without additional confirmation once permissions are granted.
→ For comprehensive file operations guide, see [File Operations](https://docs.massgen.ai/en/latest/user_guide/file_operations.html)
#### **5. Project Integration & User Context Paths (NEW in v0.0.21)**
Work directly with your existing projects! User Context Paths allow you to share specific directories with all agents while maintaining granular permission control. This enables secure multi-agent collaboration on your real codebases, documentation, and data.
MassGen automatically organizes all its working files under a `.massgen/` directory in your project root, keeping your project clean and making it easy to exclude MassGen's temporary files from version control.
**Project Integration Parameters:**
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `context_paths` | list | **Yes** (for project integration) | Shared directories for all agents |
| └─ `path` | string | Yes | Absolute or relative path to your project directory (**must be directory, not file**) |
| └─ `permission` | string | Yes | Access level: `"read"` or `"write"` (write applies only to final agent) |
| └─ `protected_paths` | list | No | Files/directories immune from modification (relative to context path) |
**⚠️ Important Notes:**
- Context paths must point to **directories**, not individual files
- Paths can be **absolute** or **relative** (resolved against current working directory)
- **Write permissions** apply only to the **final agent** during presentation phase
- During coordination, all context paths are **read-only** to protect your files
- MassGen validates all paths during startup and will show clear error messages for missing paths or file paths
**Quick Start Commands:**
```bash
# Multi-agent collaboration to improve the website in `massgen/configs/resources/v0.0.21-example
massgen --config @examples/tools/filesystem/gpt5mini_cc_fs_context_path "Enhance the website with: 1) A dark/light theme toggle with smooth transitions, 2) An interactive feature that helps users engage with the blog content (your choice - could be search, filtering by topic, reading time estimates, social sharing, reactions, etc.), and 3) Visual polish with CSS animations or transitions that make the site feel more modern and responsive. Use vanilla JavaScript and be creative with the implementation details."
```
**Configuration:**
```yaml
# Basic Project Integration:
agents:
- id: "code-reviewer"
backend:
type: "claude_code"
cwd: "workspace" # Agent's isolated work area
orchestrator:
context_paths:
- path: "." # Current directory (relative path)
permission: "write" # Final agent can create/modify files
protected_paths: # Optional: files immune from modification
- ".env"
- "config.json"
- path: "/home/user/my-project/src" # Absolute path example
permission: "read" # Agents can analyze your code
# Advanced: Multi-Agent Project Collaboration
agents:
- id: "analyzer"
backend:
type: "gemini"
cwd: "analysis_workspace"
- id: "implementer"
backend:
type: "claude_code"
cwd: "implementation_workspace"
orchestrator:
context_paths:
- path: "../legacy-app/src" # Relative path to existing codebase
permission: "read" # Read existing codebase
- path: "../legacy-app/tests"
permission: "write" # Final agent can write new tests
protected_paths: # Protect specific test files
- "integration_tests/production_data_test.py"
- path: "/home/user/modernized-app" # Absolute path
permission: "write" # Final agent can create modernized version
```
**This showcases project integration:**
- **Real Project Access** - Work with your actual codebases, not copies
- **Secure Permissions** - Granular control over what agents can read/modify
- **Multi-Agent Collaboration** - Multiple agents safely work on the same project
- **Context Agents** (during coordination): Always READ-only access to protect your files
- **Final Agent** (final execution): Gets the configured permission (READ or write)
**Use Cases:**
- **Code Review**: Agents analyze your source code and suggest improvements
- **Documentation**: Agents read project docs to understand context and generate updates
- **Data Processing**: Agents access shared datasets and generate analysis reports
- **Project Migration**: Agents examine existing projects and create modernized versions
**Clean Project Organization:**
```

**Benefits:**
- ✅ **Clean Projects** - All MassGen files contained in one directory
- ✅ **Easy Gitignore** - Just add `.massgen/` to `.gitignore`
- ✅ **Portable** - Move or delete `.massgen/` without affecting your project
- ✅ **Multi-Turn Sessions** - Conversation history preserved across sessions
**Configuration Auto-Organization:**
```yaml
orchestrator:
# User specifies simple names - MassGen organizes under .massgen/
snapshot_storage: "snapshots" # → .massgen/snapshots/
session_storage: "sessions" # → .massgen/sessions/
agent_temporary_workspace: "temp" # → .massgen/temp/
agents:
- backend:
cwd: "workspace1" # → .massgen/workspaces/workspace1/
```
→ For comprehensive project integration guide, see [Project Integration](https://docs.massgen.ai/en/latest/user_guide/project_integration.html)
**Security Considerations:**
- **Agent ID Safety**: Avoid using agent+incremental digits for IDs (e.g., `agent1`, `agent2`). This may cause ID exposure during voting
- **File Access Control**: Restrict file access using MCP server configurations when needed
- **Path Validation**: All context paths are validated to ensure they exist and are directories (not files)
- **Directory-Only Context Paths**: Context paths must point to directories, not individual files
