Building a Multi-Agent AI Team with Klyro

Klyro Team February 12, 2026

A single AI agent is useful. A coordinated team of agents is powerful. Klyro lets you run multiple OpenClaw agents on one deployment, each with its own personality, tools, and responsibilities.

Why Multi-Agent?

Different tasks need different approaches:

  • A researcher agent excels at browsing the web and compiling information
  • A coder agent is optimized for writing and debugging code
  • A writer agent produces polished content and documentation
  • An analyst agent processes data and generates insights

Instead of asking one agent to do everything, you assign specialized roles.

Setting Up Your Agent Team

Step 1: Deploy OpenClaw on Klyro

Start by deploying an OpenClaw instance. Choose at least the Pro tier (4 GB RAM) if you plan to run 3+ agents simultaneously.

Step 2: Create Agent Sessions

From your site detail page, go to the Agents tab:

  1. Click Add Agent
  2. Give it a name (e.g., “Researcher”)
  3. Select the AI model (Claude, GPT-4o, Gemini)
  4. Write a directive that defines its role and behavior
  5. Repeat for each agent in your team

Step 3: Write Agent Directives

The directive is the personality and instruction set for each agent. Good directives are specific:

Researcher directive example:

You are a research assistant. Your job is to:
- Browse the web to find relevant information
- Compile findings into structured summaries
- Save research to /data/research/
- Notify the team via the task board when research is complete
Focus on accuracy over speed. Always cite sources.

Coder directive example:

You are a coding assistant. Your job is to:
- Write clean, tested code
- Follow the project's coding standards
- Push changes to the project repository
- Create detailed commit messages
Focus on correctness and maintainability.

Step 4: Use the Ops Center

The Ops Center is a kanban board built into every Klyro deployment. It has three columns: To Do, In Progress, and Done.

  1. Create tasks with clear descriptions
  2. Assign tasks to specific agents
  3. Agents pick up tasks and work on them
  4. Track progress in real-time

Step 5: Daily Standups

Klyro generates automated daily standup summaries. Each morning, you get a report of:

  • What each agent accomplished yesterday
  • What they’re working on today
  • Any blockers or issues

Standups can be delivered via Telegram for quick mobile check-ins.

Best Practices

Start with 2-3 agents. More agents means more coordination overhead. Start small and add agents as you identify clear roles.

Write clear directives. Vague directives lead to overlapping work. Be specific about each agent’s responsibilities and boundaries.

Use the task board. Don’t just set agents loose — create structured tasks with clear deliverables.

Review daily standups. The standup summary helps you catch issues early and redirect agents as needed.
