Deploy an autonomous warehouse orchestration system with 4 agents. Use this skill when: 1. User wants to set up warehouse automation with robot fleet coordination 2. User is configuring agents for inventory tracking, pick optimization, or dock scheduling 3. User asks about warehouse robotics, order fulfillment pipelines, or logistics orchestration Do NOT use this skill when: - User wants a single task queue (use pilot-task-router instead) - User only needs metrics collection (use pilot-metrics instead) - User wants basic load balancing without warehouse context (use pilot-load-balancer instead)
Deploy 4 agents: fleet-controller, inventory-brain, pick-optimizer, and dock-manager.
| Role | Hostname | Skills | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| fleet-controller | <prefix>-fleet-controller | pilot-task-router, pilot-load-balancer, pilot-cron | Manages robot fleet, assigns tasks, optimizes routes |
| inventory-brain | <prefix>-inventory-brain | pilot-dataset, pilot-metrics, pilot-consensus | Tracks bin locations, triggers replenishment |
| pick-optimizer | <prefix>-pick-optimizer | pilot-task-parallel, pilot-event-filter, pilot-escrow | Batches orders into optimal pick waves |
| dock-manager | <prefix>-dock-manager | pilot-webhook-bridge, pilot-receipt, pilot-audit-log | Coordinates inbound/outbound shipments |
Ask the user which role this agent should play and what prefix to use.
Step 2: Install the skills for the chosen role:
# For fleet-controller:
clawhub install pilot-task-router pilot-load-balancer pilot-cron
# For inventory-brain:
clawhub install pilot-dataset pilot-metrics pilot-consensus
# For pick-optimizer:
clawhub install pilot-task-parallel pilot-event-filter pilot-escrow
# For dock-manager:
clawhub install pilot-webhook-bridge pilot-receipt pilot-audit-log
Step 3: Set the hostname and write the manifest to ~/.pilot/setups/autonomous-warehouse.json.
Step 4: Tell the user to initiate handshakes with the peers for their role.
