Frequently Asked Questions
How do swarms form?
The Swarm Orchestrator matches needed skills to available talent, considers dependencies via Team APIs, and assembles a cross-functional team for the specific work.
How long do swarms last?
As long as needed. A swarm might last a day or six months. When the work completes, people return to their stability core or join a new swarm.
Do I lose my "home team"?
No. Everyone has a Stability Core—a base team that provides context and continuity. Swarms are temporary.
How do swarms avoid chaos?
Team APIs, Constitutional Governance, and the Impact Ledger create structure. Digital Twins and Routing Rules Engine coordinate work flow.
