Swarm Canvas & Multi-Agent Orchestration
Build multi-agent workflows with Swarm Canvas — Arsenal nodes, Custom Connector, Code Step, checkpoints, and simulation.
The Swarm Canvas is FuseIQ's visual workflow builder. Drag, drop, and connect AI agents, set routing conditions, call any HTTP API (Custom Connector), run sandboxed Code Steps, and orchestrate multi-agent workflows without leaving the console.
Canvas Overview
The canvas starts with a clean grid where you add nodes representing agents, logic gates, and output destinations. Key components:
- Input Node — Entry point for the workflow (manual trigger, webhook, cron, or event)
- Agent Node — Any connected agent in your workspace. Configure prompts and parameters.
- Condition Node — Route workflow based on agent output content, cost, or status
- Output Node — Send results to integrations (Slack, Discord, GitHub, etc.)
- Parallel Gate — Execute multiple agents simultaneously and merge results
Building a Workflow
Advanced Patterns
Beyond simple linear workflows, the Swarm Canvas supports:
- Parallel Execution — Use a parallel gate to run multiple agents at once. Example: research, write, and review simultaneously.
- Conditional Routing — Route based on token cost, execution time, or output content. Example: expensive queries go to a cheaper model.
- Loop & Retry — Automatically retry failed agent nodes with configurable backoff.
- Sub-Flows — Nest entire workflows as a single node in another canvas.
- Human-in-the-Loop Gates — Pause execution at any node until a human approves or edits the agent's output.
Simulation Mode
Before deploying a workflow to production, use Simulation Mode to:
- Step through each node with sample input data
- Verify agent outputs match expected formats
- Check condition routing logic
- Estimate execution cost and time before it runs live
The canvas enters a simulation overlay with a coloured tint and debug panels showing each node's input, output, and cost. Simulator runs use your plan's monthly quota (5–15K/mo by tier) and do not count toward Swarm execution limits.
Long runs & checkpoints
Large graphs pause near the serverless time budget into Approvals so you can resume instead of losing the run. Cloud auto-save keeps the canvas definition durable.
Output Integrations
Workflow outputs can reach 1427+ catalog apps and certified live connectors — Slack, Discord, GitHub, Jira, Sheets, Stripe, email, and custom webhooks. Unconfigured platform OAuth (e.g. some commerce/social) shows not_configured, not Live. See Output Integrations.
