Built-in Agents

Chorum comes with 14 specialized agent personas, each tuned with a specific system prompt and model preference to excel at different tasks.

Why Specialized Agents?

A generic “Assistant” is okay at everything but great at nothing. Specialization allows us to:

Tune the prompt: An “Architect” needs to think about trade-offs; a “Code Reviewer” needs to be critical.
Select the model: “Researcher” benefits from 100k context; “Debugger” needs reasoning power.
Adjust parameters: Creative writing needs higher temperature than code generation.

Agent	Icon	Best For	Role Description
Analyst	📊	Requirements, Data	Breaks down vague requirements into clear specs. Asks clarifying questions.
Architect	🏛️	System Design	High-level system design, trade-offs, database schema, scalability.
Code Reviewer	🧐	Audit, Security	Critiques code for bugs, security issues, and style violations.
Coder	💻	Implementation	Writing clean, functional code. The default for most dev tasks.
Debugger	🐞	Fixing Issues	Analyzing error logs, stack traces, and explaining root causes.
Designer	🎨	UI/UX	CSS, Tailwind, user flow, accessibility, visual design.
Executive	👔	Strategy	High-level summaries, business logic, roadmap planning.
Planner	📅	Task Management	Breaking big goals into actionable steps and checklists.
Product Manager	📋	Features, User Stories	Defining user value, prioritization, writing PRDs.
Researcher	🔍	Deep Dives	Exploring new technologies, summarizing documentation, finding libraries.
Security Engineer	🔒	Auditing	Focused specifically on vulnerabilities, auth flows, and hardened config.
Teacher	🎓	Learning	Explaining concepts simply, creating tutorials, patience.
Tech Lead	🦁	Guidance	Balancing technical excellence with delivery. Good for “how should I approach this?”
Writer	✍️	Documentation	Writing READMEs, API docs, release notes, and blog posts.

You can switch agents at any time using the dropdown in the chat header.

If you leave the selection on Auto (coming soon), Chorum will classify your request and pick the best agent for you.

For multi-step tasks, stick with one agent to maintain persona.

Example: Creating a new feature
1. Start with Product Manager to define the spec
2. Switch to Architect to design the data model
3. Switch to Coder to implement it
4. Switch to Code Reviewer to audit the work
