@claude-flow/shared

Shared utilities, types, and core infrastructure for Claude Flow V3 - the foundation module used by all other @claude-flow packages.

Features

• Core Types - Agent, Task, Memory, MCP, and Swarm type definitions
• Core Interfaces - Agent, Task, Memory, Event, and Coordinator interfaces
• Configuration - Schema validation, loading, and default values
• Event System - Event bus, coordinator, and handler utilities
• Hooks System - Pre/post execution hooks for extensibility
• MCP Infrastructure - Server, transport, connection pool, and tool registry
• Health Monitoring - Health checks and monitoring utilities

Installation

npm install @claude-flow/shared

Quick Start

import {
  AgentState,
  TaskDefinition,
  MemoryEntry,
  EventBus,
  ConfigLoader
} from '@claude-flow/shared';

// Use shared types
const agent: AgentState = {
  id: { id: 'agent-1', swarmId: 'swarm-1', type: 'coder' },
  name: 'Code Agent',
  type: 'coder',
  status: 'idle'
};

// Use configuration
const config = await ConfigLoader.load('./config.json');

// Use event system
const eventBus = new EventBus();
eventBus.on('task.completed', (event) => {
  console.log(`Task ${event.taskId} completed`);
});

Core Interfaces

import type {
  IAgent,
  ITask,
  IMemory,
  ICoordinator,
  IEventHandler
} from '@claude-flow/shared/core';

// Agent interface
interface IAgent {
  getId(): AgentId;
  getState(): AgentState;
  execute(task: TaskDefinition): Promise<TaskResult>;
  handleMessage(message: Message): Promise<void>;
}

// Memory interface
interface IMemory {
  store(entry: MemoryEntry): Promise<string>;
  retrieve(id: string): Promise<MemoryEntry | null>;
  search(query: SearchQuery): Promise<SearchResult[]>;
  delete(id: string): Promise<boolean>;
}

// Coordinator interface
interface ICoordinator {
  initialize(): Promise<void>;
  shutdown(): Promise<void>;
  registerAgent(agent: IAgent): Promise<string>;
  submitTask(task: TaskDefinition): Promise<string>;
}

Configuration

import {
  ConfigLoader,
  ConfigValidator,
  defaultConfig,
  ConfigSchema
} from '@claude-flow/shared/core';

// Load configuration
const config = await ConfigLoader.load('./config.json');
const config2 = await ConfigLoader.loadFromEnv();

// Validate configuration
const errors = ConfigValidator.validate(config);
if (errors.length > 0) {
  console.error('Invalid config:', errors);
}

// Default configuration
const defaults = defaultConfig();

Event System

import { EventBus, EventCoordinator } from '@claude-flow/shared/events';

const eventBus = new EventBus();

// Subscribe to events
eventBus.on('agent.joined', (event) => {
  console.log(`Agent ${event.agentId} joined`);
});

eventBus.on('task.*', (event) => {
  console.log(`Task event: ${event.type}`);
});

// Emit events
eventBus.emit({
  type: 'task.completed',
  taskId: 'task-1',
  result: { success: true }
});

// Event coordinator for complex workflows
const coordinator = new EventCoordinator();
coordinator.orchestrate([
  { event: 'step1.done', handler: () => startStep2() },
  { event: 'step2.done', handler: () => startStep3() }
]);

Hooks System

import { HooksManager, Hook } from '@claude-flow/shared/hooks';

const hooks = new HooksManager();

// Register pre-execution hook
hooks.register('pre:task', async (context) => {
  console.log(`Starting task: ${context.taskId}`);
  return { ...context, startTime: Date.now() };
});

// Register post-execution hook
hooks.register('post:task', async (context, result) => {
  const duration = Date.now() - context.startTime;
  console.log(`Task completed in ${duration}ms`);
});

// Execute with hooks
const result = await hooks.execute('task', context, async (ctx) => {
  return await runTask(ctx);
});

MCP Infrastructure

import {
  createMCPServer,
  createToolRegistry,
  createConnectionPool,
  createSessionManager,
  defineTool,
  quickStart,
} from '@claude-flow/shared/mcp';

// Quick start - simplest way to create an MCP server
const server = await quickStart({
  transport: 'stdio',
  name: 'My MCP Server',
});

// Tool registry
const registry = createToolRegistry();
registry.register(defineTool({
  name: 'swarm_init',
  description: 'Initialize a swarm',
  inputSchema: { type: 'object', properties: { topology: { type: 'string' } } },
  handler: async (params) => ({ result: 'initialized' }),
}));

// Connection pool
const pool = createConnectionPool({
  maxConnections: 10,
  acquireTimeoutMs: 30000,
});

// Session manager
const sessions = createSessionManager({ timeoutMs: 3600000 });
const session = await sessions.create({ clientInfo: { name: 'client' } });

Health Monitor

import { HealthMonitor, HealthCheck } from '@claude-flow/shared/core';

const monitor = new HealthMonitor();

// Register health checks
monitor.register('database', async () => {
  const connected = await db.ping();
  return { healthy: connected, latency: pingTime };
});

monitor.register('memory', async () => {
  const usage = process.memoryUsage();
  return { healthy: usage.heapUsed < MAX_HEAP, usage };
});

// Run health checks
const report = await monitor.check();
// { overall: 'healthy', checks: { database: {...}, memory: {...} } }
