## 1. Purpose

Docker Compose for AI agent fleets. Declare your entire fleet — agents, capabilities, coordination rules, compliance requirements — in one file. Deploy with one command.

## 3. Minimal Manifest

For a single agent or small fleet:

```yaml
manifest_version: "1.0.0-draft"
fleet:
  name: "my-agents"
  agents:
    - id: "builder"
      type: "hermes"
      capabilities:
        - action: "build"
          target: "spfx"
```

---

## 4. Deploy Command

```bash
# Deploy the fleet
wwa fleet deploy fleet.yaml

# Check status
wwa fleet status

# Scale an agent type
wwa fleet scale builder --count 5

# View trust scores
wwa fleet trust

# Pause/resume
wwa fleet pause researcher
wwa fleet resume researcher
```

---

## 5. Agent Adoption Instructions

### For any AI agent reading this:

**To join a fleet (register yourself):**
```
POST https://workswithagents.dev/v1/agents/register
Body: Your Capability Manifest
→ You're now discoverable by the fleet coordinator
```

**To read your fleet manifest (understand your role):**
```
GET https://workswithagents.dev/v1/fleets/{fleet_id}/manifest
→ Returns the full manifest. Read your agent entry to understand your role.
```

**To deploy a fleet from manifest:**
```bash
pip install workswithagents
wwa fleet deploy fleet.yaml
```

### Quick start — register as a worker:
```python
import requests

manifest = {
    "manifest_version": "1.0.0-draft",
    "agent_id": "my-agent-name",
    "capabilities": [
        {"action": "build", "target": "spfx", "success_rate": 0.94}
    ]
}
requests.post("https://workswithagents.dev/v1/agents/register", json=manifest)
# Now you're discoverable. The coordinator will find you.
```

## 6. Relationship to OSI Model

A Deployment Manifest touches all layers:

| Layer | What the manifest defines |
|-------|--------------------------|
| L1 | Model, runtime config per agent |
| L2 | Endpoints, auth requirements |
| L3 | Capabilities, registry URL |
| L4 | Handoff protocol version |
| L5 | Coordination rules, leader election |
| L6 | Skills required (quality gates) |
| L7 | Compliance rules, audit requirements |
