Hi there,

Disclaimer: the blog should be glanced high-level as human, read the below instead. You can point your agents to it tho.

We've been working on agent-swarm (https://github.com/desplega-ai/agent-swarm) as an oss MIT project for a while.

One of the core principles on why we believe in is that when you adopt AI internally in your company, you should be free and not tied to a single provider (e.g. Devin).

Yesterday Devin introduced the Devin Oncall, and we wanted to replicate the feature in the swarm, but with one thing in mind: what if Devin is down?

As the swarm is built on top of a set of building blocks (not only agents), we created a set of workflow, deterministic scripts, and ui so that when a Pagerduty (or any other) comes it will handle it with automatic provider failover.

It's a simple thing really. In the blog post our swarm created explaining how to set it up you can see the high-level wf, and sub-wf.

If for some reason you have a swarm running point it to it. If you have some other system, do it too, as it might give you the high-level arch. to replicate it.

Cheers,

I would love to know why wouldn't you just trust devin? It's easy to swap regardless and pricing doesn't seem that bad.

It's not about trust, but rather the freedom of being able to move around providers. It's not even Devin, with the constant outages to anthropic and openai, being able to switch between them in a way that the system continues to work normally is key.

But if your lead/workflow is powered by one of those, you are ducked, right? How do you solve for that? Or is the retry/routing deterministic?
