# CF Plugin Quantum Optimizer

Quantum-inspired optimization plugin providing simulated annealing, QAOA circuits, Grover-style search, dependency resolution, and schedule optimization for combinatorial problems in multi-agent workflows.

## Quick Command Reference

| Task | Command |
|------|---------|
| Enable plugin | `npx @claude-flow/cli@latest plugins toggle --enable quantum-optimizer` |
| Disable plugin | `npx @claude-flow/cli@latest plugins toggle --disable quantum-optimizer` |
| Plugin info | `npx @claude-flow/cli@latest plugins info quantum-optimizer` |
| List tools | `npx @claude-flow/cli@latest mcp tools` |
| Check status | `npx @claude-flow/cli@latest plugins list` |

## Installation

**Via claude-flow**: Already included with `npx @claude-flow/cli@latest init`
**Standalone**: `npx @claude-flow/plugin-quantum-optimizer@latest`

## Activation

```bash
# Enable the plugin
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest plugins toggle --enable quantum-optimizer

# Verify activation
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest plugins info quantum-optimizer
```

## Plugin Capabilities

### Simulated Annealing
Classical optimization via probabilistic search with temperature scheduling. Effective for task assignment, resource allocation, and configuration tuning.

```bash
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest mcp exec quantum-optimizer.anneal \
  --problem task-assignment.json --temperature 1.0 --cooling-rate 0.95
```

### QAOA (Quantum Approximate Optimization)
Variational quantum-inspired algorithm for combinatorial optimization. Approximates solutions to NP-hard problems like graph partitioning and max-cut.

```bash
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest mcp exec quantum-optimizer.qaoa \
  --problem graph-partition.json --layers 3 --iterations 100
```

### Grover Search
Quadratic speedup search over unstructured solution spaces. Useful for constraint satisfaction and feasibility checking.

```bash
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest mcp exec quantum-optimizer.grover \
  --oracle constraints.json --search-space 1024
```

### Dependency Resolution
Resolves complex dependency graphs with circular dependency detection, topological sorting, and optimal execution ordering.

```bash
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest mcp exec quantum-optimizer.resolve-deps \
  --graph dependencies.json --strategy optimal
```

### Schedule Optimization
Produces optimal or near-optimal schedules for task execution across multiple agents with resource and precedence constraints.

```bash
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest mcp exec quantum-optimizer.schedule \
  --tasks tasks.json --agents 8 --optimize makespan
```

## Common Patterns

### Optimize Swarm Task Assignment
```bash
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest plugins toggle --enable quantum-optimizer
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest mcp exec quantum-optimizer.anneal \
  --problem '{"tasks": 20, "agents": 8, "objective": "minimize-latency"}'
```

### Resolve Build Dependencies
```bash
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest mcp exec quantum-optimizer.resolve-deps \
  --graph package-graph.json --detect-circular --strategy parallel
```

### Schedule CI Pipeline
```bash
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest mcp exec quantum-optimizer.schedule \
  --tasks ci-stages.json --agents 4 --optimize makespan --constraints resource-limits.json
```
