Rolesair

Rolesair is a software framework for coordinating artificial intelligence agents by assigning them clearly defined roles within collaborative workflows. By encapsulating capabilities, permissions, and decision boundaries behind each role, Rolesair aims to improve reliability, accountability, and throughput in multi-agent systems.

Key components include a role registry that defines roles and their required capabilities, a policy engine that enforces constraints and safety rules, a task orchestrator that assigns and sequences work across agents, a communication layer that standardizes inter-agent messages, and an audit log for traceability. The framework supports policy-based delegation, escalation, and veto mechanisms.

Roles describe data access, allowed actions, and escalation paths. Agents implement roles via adapters or wrappers; tasks are translated into role-specific steps and may be delegated or negotiated among agents. The framework supports delegation, escalation, and human-in-the-loop review.

Applications span enterprise automation, customer support routing, data analysis pipelines, compliance monitoring, and collaborative research. Rolesair integrates with existing AI models and human operators, enabling more predictable workflows and auditable decisions.

Governance and limitations: success depends on careful role design and policy configuration. Potential risks include misconfiguration, over-reliance on automation, data leakage, and bias. An audit trail and strict access controls are commonly recommended mitigations.

History and status: The concept emerged in the late 2010s and early 2020s as multi-agent coordination matured. While several projects explore role-based orchestration, no single standard governs its implementation, and real-world deployments vary by industry.
