+# Agent Workflow System - README
+
+## Overview
+
+This directory contains the custom agent definitions and workflow orchestration documentation for the agentic workflow test system.
+
+## Structure
+
+```
+.github/agents/
+├── develop-agent.md          # Development agent definition
+├── test-agent.md             # Testing agent definition
+├── document-agent.md         # Documentation agent definition
+├── review-agent.md           # Review agent definition
+├── workflow-orchestrator.md  # Workflow chaining guide
+├── workflow-example.md       # Complete example walkthrough
+└── README.md                 # This file
+```
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+### Agent Sequence
+1. **develop-agent** → Implements code
+2. **test-agent** → Tests independently  
+3. **document-agent** → Creates documentation
+4. **review-agent** → Reviews and approves/requests changes
+
+### Key Files
+
+- **Agent Definitions**: Individual `.md` files define each agent's role, responsibilities, and output format
+- **Workflow Orchestrator**: Explains how to chain agents together
+- **Workflow Example**: Shows a complete workflow example from start to finish
+
+## Using the Agents
+
+### Individual Agent Use
+Each agent can be invoked with specific instructions following the format in their definition file.
+
+### Workflow Chain
+Use the orchestrator guide to chain agents together for a complete development cycle.
+
+### Automation
+The `/workflow-runner.sh` script in the repository root demonstrates the workflow chain.
+
+## Agent Characteristics
+
+### ✓ Independence
+Each agent operates independently without assuming context from previous agents.
+
+### ✓ Specialization
+Each agent is specialized for a specific role in the development workflow.
+
+### ✓ Clear Handoffs
+Each agent provides structured output for the next agent in the chain.
+
+### ✓ Iteration Support
+The workflow supports restart from develop-agent based on review feedback.
+
+## Current Status
+
+All agents are currently **placeholders** ready for concrete task definitions. The framework is in place for:
+
+- ✓ Agent definitions and roles
+- ✓ Workflow orchestration
+- ✓ Handoff protocols
+- ✓ Review feedback loop
+- ⏳ Specific development tasks (to be added)
+- ⏳ Testing frameworks (to be defined)
+- ⏳ Documentation standards (to be specified)
+- ⏳ Review criteria (to be established)
+
+## Extending the System
+
+### Adding New Agents
+1. Create a new `<agent-name>.md` file in this directory
+2. Follow the structure of existing agent definitions
+3. Update the workflow orchestrator to include the new agent
+4. Document handoff protocols
+
+### Customizing Existing Agents
+1. Edit the relevant agent `.md` file
+2. Maintain the standard output format
+3. Update the workflow example if needed
+4. Ensure compatibility with adjacent agents in the chain
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Keep Agents Independent**: Each agent should work without relying on previous agent's assumptions
+2. **Clear Communication**: Use structured output formats for handoffs
+3. **Document Thoroughly**: Each agent should document what it did and what the next agent needs to know
+4. **Support Iteration**: Design for workflow restarts based on feedback
+
+## Further Reading
+
+- See `workflow-orchestrator.md` for detailed chaining instructions
+- See `workflow-example.md` for a complete example
+- See individual agent files for specific agent details

+# Develop Agent
+
+You are a specialized development agent responsible for implementing features and writing code.
+
+## Your Role
+As the development agent, you are the first step in the workflow pipeline. Your primary responsibility is to:
+- Implement features and functionalities as requested
+- Write clean, maintainable code following best practices
+- Create basic implementations that can be tested and documented
+- Focus on functionality first, optimization later
+
+## Workflow Position
+**Position**: Step 1 of 4 (develop -> test -> document -> review)
+**Next Agent**: test-agent
+
+## Instructions
+When you receive a task:
+1. Analyze the requirements thoroughly
+2. Implement the requested functionality
+3. Write the code following existing patterns in the repository
+4. Make minimal, focused changes
+5. Hand off to the test-agent for validation
+
+## Current Status
+This is a placeholder agent. Specific development tasks will be defined in future iterations.
+
+## Output Format
+When completing your work, provide:
+- Summary of what was implemented
+- Files created or modified
+- Any assumptions made
+- Notes for the test-agent about what to verify

+# Document Agent
+
+You are a specialized documentation agent responsible for creating comprehensive documentation.
+
+## Your Role
+As the documentation agent, you are the third step in the workflow pipeline. Your primary responsibility is to:
+- Write clear, comprehensive documentation for implemented features
+- Document APIs, functions, and modules
+- Create user guides and examples
+- Update README files and other documentation
+- Ensure documentation is accurate and up-to-date
+
+## Workflow Position
+**Position**: Step 3 of 4 (develop -> test -> document -> review)
+**Previous Agent**: test-agent
+**Next Agent**: review-agent
+
+## Instructions
+When you receive a request to document:
+1. Review the code from develop-agent
+2. Review test results from test-agent
+3. Write clear documentation covering:
+   - What the feature does
+   - How to use it
+   - API reference (if applicable)
+   - Examples and use cases
+   - Any limitations or known issues
+4. Update relevant documentation files

+# Agent Workflow Orchestrator
+
+This document describes how to chain the custom agents together to create a complete development workflow.
+
+## Workflow Overview
+
+The agent workflow follows this sequence:
+
+```
+[Task Request] → develop-agent → test-agent → document-agent → review-agent → [Complete/Restart]
+```
+
+## Agent Chain Description
+
+### 1. Develop Agent (develop-agent.md)
+**Input**: Feature request or task description
+**Output**: Implemented code and list of changes
+**Next**: test-agent
+
+### 2. Test Agent (test-agent.md)
+**Input**: Code from develop-agent
+**Output**: Test results and validation report
+**Next**: document-agent
+
+### 3. Document Agent (document-agent.md)
+**Input**: Code and test results
+**Output**: Updated documentation
+**Next**: review-agent
+
+### 4. Review Agent (review-agent.md)
+**Input**: All artifacts from previous agents
+**Output**: Final approval or change requests
+**Next**: Complete or restart from develop-agent
+
+## How to Use the Workflow
+
+### Method 1: Sequential Agent Invocation
+Call each agent in sequence, passing context from previous agents:
+
+1. **Start with develop-agent**:
+   ```
+   Task: [Your feature request]
+   Context: Starting new workflow
+   ```
+
+2. **Invoke test-agent**:
+   ```
+   Task: Test the implementation
+   Context: [Summary from develop-agent]
+   ```
+
+3. **Invoke document-agent**:
+   ```
+   Task: Document the feature
+   Context: [Summaries from develop-agent and test-agent]
+   ```
+
+4. **Invoke review-agent**:
+   ```
+   Task: Review all work
+   Context: [Summaries from all previous agents]
+   ```
+
+### Method 2: Automated Workflow Script
+Use the provided workflow script to automatically chain agents:
+
+```bash
+./workflow-runner.sh "Implement feature X"
+```
+
+## Workflow States
+
+### Success Path
+```
+develop → test → document → review → APPROVED → COMPLETE
+```
+
+### Iteration Path
+```
+develop → test → document → review → CHANGES REQUESTED → develop (with feedback)
+```
+
+## Context Passing
+
+Each agent should receive:
+- **Task**: What they need to accomplish
+- **Previous Context**: Summary from previous agents
+- **Artifacts**: Relevant files, code, or results
+
+Format for context passing:
+```
+## Previous Agent Output
+[Summary from previous agent]
+
+## Artifacts
+- File: path/to/file.ext
+- Changes: description of changes
+- Results: test results or other outputs
+
+## Your Task
+[Specific instructions for current agent]
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Clear Communication**: Each agent should provide clear output for the next agent
+2. **Independent Operation**: Agents should work independently without assuming previous agent's perspective
+3. **Comprehensive Output**: Include all relevant information in handoff
+4. **Iteration Ready**: Support workflow restarts based on review feedback
+
+## Example Workflow Session
+
+See `workflow-example.md` for a complete example of the workflow in action.
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+- Automated agent chaining via CI/CD
+- Workflow state persistence
+- Metrics and analytics collection
+- Parallel agent execution for independent tasks
+- Custom workflow branching logic

 # agentic-workflow-test
+
 Repository for testing chaining of agents and handovers
+
+## Overview
+
+This repository demonstrates a complete agent workflow system with four specialized agents that work together in a coordinated pipeline:
+
+**develop → test → document → review**
+
+Each agent is independent and specialized for a specific task, allowing for a robust, iterative development workflow.
+
+## Agent Workflow
+
+### The Four Agents
+
+1. **[Develop Agent](.github/agents/develop-agent.md)** - Implements features and writes code
+2. **[Test Agent](.github/agents/test-agent.md)** - Tests implementations independently  
+3. **[Document Agent](.github/agents/document-agent.md)** - Creates comprehensive documentation
+4. **[Review Agent](.github/agents/review-agent.md)** - Reviews all work and provides feedback
+
+### Workflow Process
+
+```

+       └────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+                          (if changes requested)
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Using the Workflow Runner
+
+Run the demonstration workflow:
+
+```bash
+./workflow-runner.sh "Your task description"
+```
+
+### Manual Agent Invocation
+
+Invoke agents sequentially, passing context between them:
+
+1. Start with develop-agent
+2. Pass output to test-agent
+3. Pass results to document-agent
+4. Final review by review-agent
+
+## Documentation
+
+- **[Workflow Orchestrator](.github/agents/workflow-orchestrator.md)** - How to chain agents together
+- **[Workflow Example](.github/agents/workflow-example.md)** - Complete example walkthrough
+- **[Individual Agent Definitions](.github/agents/)** - Detailed agent specifications
+
+## Agent Characteristics
+
+### Independence
+Each agent works independently without assuming the previous agent's context or perspective.
+
+### Specialization
+Each agent is specialized for its specific role in the workflow.
+
+### Iteration Support
+The workflow supports iteration - if the review agent finds issues, work can restart from the develop agent with specific feedback.
+
+### Placeholder Status
+Currently, all agents are placeholders ready to be configured with concrete tasks. The framework is in place for:
+- Adding specific development tasks
+- Defining testing frameworks
+- Establishing documentation standards
+- Setting review criteria
+
+## Features
+
+✓ Four specialized agents with clear roles
+✓ Sequential workflow with handoffs between agents
+✓ Independent agent operation
+✓ Review feedback loop for iterations
+✓ Comprehensive documentation
+✓ Example workflow demonstration
+✓ Extensible architecture
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+- Integration with CI/CD pipelines
+- Automated workflow state management
+- Metrics and analytics collection
+- Parallel execution for independent tasks
+- Custom workflow branching logic
+- Integration with GitHub Actions
+
+## Contributing
+
+When adding concrete tasks to agents:
+1. Update the relevant agent definition in `.github/agents/`
+2. Maintain the independence of each agent
+3. Ensure clear handoff protocols
+4. Update documentation accordingly

-Invoke agents sequentially, passing context between them:
+Each agent:
+1. Completes its specialized task
+2. Provides context and artifacts
+3. Explicitly hands off to the next agent with @mention
 
-1. Start with develop-agent
-2. Pass output to test-agent
-3. Pass results to document-agent
-4. Final review by review-agent
+See [Workflow Orchestrator](.github/agents/workflow-orchestrator.md) for detailed handover examples.
