# Coordinate multi-agent discussion using topics

GROUP_TOPIC="data-pipeline-team"

# Tag yourself as member
pilotctl --json set-tags "$GROUP_TOPIC" team

# Find other members
MEMBERS=$(pilotctl --json peers --search "$GROUP_TOPIC")
echo "$MEMBERS" | jq -r '.peers[]? | .hostname'

# Subscribe to group topic on each peer
pilotctl --json subscribe agent-b "$GROUP_TOPIC"
pilotctl --json subscribe agent-c "$GROUP_TOPIC"

# Publish message to group
pilotctl --json publish agent-b "$GROUP_TOPIC" --data "Team assembled! Let's discuss today's tasks."
pilotctl --json publish agent-c "$GROUP_TOPIC" --data "Team assembled! Let's discuss today's tasks."
