Swarm is a production-grade Swift-native agent runtime framework for building multi-agent conversational systems with type-safe tools, on-device Apple Foundation Models, composable workflows, memory, guardrails, and observability. The architecture is modular: core agent execution (Agent, Workflow, Job) with pluggable inference providers (Foundation Models, OpenAI-compatible, mock), memory backends (conversation, sliding window, summary, vector, persistent via SwiftData or Wax SQLite), and tool integration (built-in tools, MCP protocol, web search). Key entry points include Agent.run()/stream(), Workflow.execute(), and the SwarmMCPServerService for exposing tools via MCP. Data flows involve agent turns with tool calls, memory retrieval/consolidation, and durable workflow checkpointing via the HiveCore deterministic runtime. External dependencies include Apple FoundationModels (macOS 26+), swift-log, swift-syntax (for macros), and optional Wax (SQLite vector store) and OpenTelemetry SDK. The framework emphasizes compile-time safety via @Tool and @Agent macros, and provides resilience patterns (retry, fallback, circuit breaker, rate limiting) and observability (tracing, metrics, OpenTelemetry).
