# Collaboration - MCP Tool Specification

This document outlines the specification for tools within the Collaboration module that are intended to be integrated with the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

## Current Status: No MCP Tools Defined

The Collaboration module provides multi-agent collaboration capabilities for internal use by other Codomyrmex modules, including agent management (workers, supervisors, registry), communication (channels, broadcasting, direct messaging), coordination (task management, consensus, leader election), and protocols (message passing, swarm behavior, round-robin routing). These functions are primarily for programmatic integration within the application lifecycle and are not suited for exposure as Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools.

MCP tools are typically designed for discrete, invocable actions or queries that an external agent (like an LLM) would trigger. The internal multi-agent coordination mechanisms do not fit this paradigm.

If future enhancements to this module introduce features that are appropriate for MCP (e.g., dispatching a task to a specific agent, or querying swarm consensus status), this document will be updated accordingly.

For details on how to use the collaboration functionalities within your Python code, please refer to the module's `README.md` and `API_SPECIFICATION.md`.
