Replace custom memory manager with SDK session persistence using SDKMessage[] history and resumeSessionAt for recovery.
MemoryManagerSDK classSDKMessage formatresumeSessionAt for checkpoint recovery// src/swarm/memory-manager-sdk.ts
export class MemoryManagerSDK {
private sessions: Map<string, SDKMessage[]> = new Map();
async saveSwarmState(swarmId: string, state: SwarmState): Promise<void> {
// Convert swarm state to SDKMessage format
const messages: SDKMessage[] = [

Enable parallel agent execution via session forking and add real-time agent control capabilities.
// src/swarm/parallel-executor-sdk.ts
export class ParallelSwarmExecutor {
async spawnParallelAgents(task: Task, count: number): Promise<Agent[]> {
// Create base session with shared context
const baseSession = await this.createBaseSession(task);
// Fork N sessions for parallel execution
const agents = await Promise.all(
Array.from({ length: count }, async (_, index) => {
const stream = query({
prompt: this.getAgentPrompt(task, index),
options: {
resume: baseSession.id,
forkSession: true, // Key: instant fork!
mcpServers: {
'claude-flow-swarm': claudeFlowSwarmServer
}
}
});
return this.monitorAgentStream(stream, index);
})
);
return agents;
}
}
Performance: Agent spawn 500-1000ms ā 10-50ms (10-20x faster)
// src/verification/checkpoint-manager-sdk.ts
export class CheckpointManagerSDK {

// SDK automatically compacts context - use as checkpoint!
await this.createSwarmCheckpoint(swarmId, {

options: {
resume: swarmId,
resumeSessionAt: checkpointId // Point to compact boundary message
}
});
// Swarm state automatically restored to that point!
return this.extractSwarmState(stream);
}
}
Performance: Checkpoint recovery = Instant (SDK handles it)
// src/swarm/dynamic-agent-controller.ts
export class DynamicAgentController {
private activeStreams: Map<string, Query> = new Map();
