# Specification: Multi-LLM Agentic Development Platform

## Overview

Build an advanced agentic development platform that orchestrates multiple AI models (Claude, Gemini, Grok, Ollama) for intelligent software development. The system strategically routes tasks to models best suited for them, implements cross-model validation for quality assurance, and provides cost optimization through intelligent balancing of cloud and local models. This greenfield project extends concepts from Autocoder 2.0/Auto-Claude with multi-model orchestration, adaptive requirements management, and mid-project course correction capabilities.

## Workflow Type

**Type**: Feature (Greenfield Development)

**Rationale**: Despite referencing existing Autocoder 2.0/Auto-Claude patterns, the project index shows an empty codebase with no existing code to refactor. This is building new functionality from scratch, requiring full-stack development across 5 services, 4+ external LLM provider integrations, database schema design, and novel architectural patterns for multi-model orchestration.

## Patterns to Follow

### LiteLLM Unified Interface Pattern

Use LiteLLM as the unified API wrapper for all LLM providers:

```python
from litellm import completion, acompletion

# Unified interface - same code for any provider
async def call_llm(model: str, messages: list, **kwargs) -> str:
    response = await acompletion(
        model=model,  # e.g., "claude-3-opus", "gemini/gemini-pro", "ollama/llama3"
        messages=messages,
        **kwargs
    )
    return response.choices[0].message.content
```

**Key Points:**
- Model names follow `provider/model` format for non-OpenAI models
- Built-in cost tracking via `litellm.track_cost = True`
- Automatic retries and fallbacks configurable
- Same interface works across 100+ LLM providers

---

### FastAPI Service Pattern

```python
from fastapi import FastAPI, Depends, HTTPException
from pydantic import BaseModel

app = FastAPI(title="Multi-LLM Platform")

class TaskCreate(BaseModel):
    description: str
    priority: str = "normal"

@app.post("/tasks/", response_model=Task)
async def create_task(task: TaskCreate, db: Session = Depends(get_db)):
    """Create a new task with automatic model routing."""
    return await orchestrator.create_task(task, db)
```

**Key Points:**
- Use Pydantic models for request/response validation
- Dependency injection for database sessions
- Async endpoints for non-blocking LLM calls

---

### Async LLM Client Pattern

```python
from anthropic import AsyncAnthropic
from google import genai
from xai_sdk import AsyncClient as XAIClient
from ollama import AsyncClient as OllamaClient

# All providers support async clients for concurrent operations
async def parallel_validation(prompt: str, models: list[str]) -> list[str]:
    tasks = [call_llm(model, prompt) for model in models]
    responses = await asyncio.gather(*tasks, return_exceptions=True)
    return [r for r in responses if not isinstance(r, Exception)]
```

---

### MCP Server Pattern

```python
from mcp.server.fastmcp import FastMCP

mcp = FastMCP("multi-llm-platform")

@mcp.tool()
async def create_spec(description: str) -> dict:
    """Create a new project specification."""
    return await spec_service.create(description)

@mcp.resource("project://state")
async def get_project_state() -> str:
    """Get current project state."""
    return json.dumps(state_manager.get_state())
```

---

### Git Integration Pattern

```python
from git import Repo

def create_feature_branch(repo_path:

[... file truncated ...]
```

thinking:
The user wants me to summarize the key findings from the "spec_writing" phase output. They want:
- Key decisions made and their rationale
- Critical files, components, or patterns identified
- Important constraints or requirements discovered
- Actionable insights for implementation

They want this in 500 words or less, with bullet points, and no boilerplate.

Let me extract the most critical information from the spec document:

1. **Project Type & Scope**: Greenfield multi-LLM orchestration platform
2. **Key Architecture Decisions**:
   - LiteLLM as unified interface
   - 5 main services (orchestration, llm-wrapper, spec-management, skill, version-control)
   - FastAPI backend, React frontend, MCP server
3. **Model Strategy**: Claude, Gemini, Grok, Ollama with task-specific routing
4. **Critical Patterns**: Async LLM calls, cross-model validation, cost tracking
5. **Out of scope**: Production infra, enterprise features, multi-tenant

Let me organize this concisely:

# Spec Writing Phase - Key Findings

## Project Classification
- **Workflow Type**: Feature (Greenfield Development)
- **Rationale**: Empty codebase despite referencing Autocoder 2.0/Auto-Claude patterns. Building from scratch, not refactoring.

## Core Architecture Decisions

### Multi-Service Design (5 services)
1. **orchestration-service**: Task decomposition, model routing, parallel execution
2. **llm-wrapper-service**: Unified LLM API via LiteLLM abstraction
3. **spec-management-service**: Adaptive specs with interview/re-interview workflows
4. **skill-service**: Extensible plugin architecture
5. **version-control-service**: Git/Gitea automation

### Technology Stack
- **Backend**: Python 3.11+, FastAPI, SQLAlchemy, uvicorn (port 8000)
- **Frontend**: TypeScript, React, Vite (port 5173)
- **MCP Server**: FastMCP SDK, Python
- **LLM Integration**: LiteLLM as unified interface layer

## Critical Technical Decisions

### LiteLLM as Unified Interface
- **Why**: Single API for 100+ providers vs. managing 4+ separate SDKs
- **Models**: Claude (`claude-3-opus`), Gemini (`gemini/gemini-pro`), Grok (`xai/grok`), Ollama (`ollama/llama3`)
- **Built-in features**: Cost tracking, automatic retries, fallback logic
- **Pattern**: `await acompletion(model=model, messages=messages)` works universally

### Async-First Architecture
- All LLM calls use async clients (`AsyncAnthropic`, async `genai`, etc.)
- Enables parallel validation across models
- FastAPI async endpoints prevent blocking

### Database Schema Requirements
Four core models identified:
- `Spec`: Version-tracked project specifications
- `Task`: Task history with model assignments
- `Decision`: Decision tracking for course correction
- Model interaction logs (via LiteLLM)

## Critical Files & Components

### Backend Core (33 files total)
- **Entry**: `backend/main.py` (FastAPI app)
- **Orchestration**: `backend/services/orchestrator.py` (routing logic)
- **LLM Layer**: `backend/llm/unified_client.py` + 4 provider files
- **Routing**: `backend/llm/routing/router.py` (task-to-model matching)
- **Validation**: `backend/llm/validation/cross_validate.py`
- **Git**: `backend/git/git_service.py`, `gitea_service.py`

### Frontend (8 files)
- `Dashboard.tsx`, `SpecEditor.tsx`, `TaskViewer.tsx`
- `ModelStatus.tsx`, `CostTracker.tsx` (monitoring)

### MCP Server (4 files)
- `server.py`, `spec_tools.py`, `task_tools.py`, `project_state.py`

## Key Constraints & Requirements

### Environment Dependencies
```bash
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, GEMINI_API_KEY, XAI_API_KEY required
Ollama needs local server (no API key)
```

### Explicitly Out of Scope
- Production deployment (K8s, cloud)
- Enterprise auth (SSO/SAML)
- Multi-tenant architecture
- Billing/subscriptions
- Mobile apps
- CI/CD integration beyond Git ops

## Actionable Implementation Insights

### Phase 1 Priority
1. Set up FastAPI skeleton + LiteLLM wrapper first (enables testing with real models early)
2. Build basic orchestrator with single-model routing before adding cross-validation
3. SQLAlchemy models before API routes (data layer foundation)

### Integration Strategy
- LiteLLM handles provider differences automatically
- Use `asyncio.gather()` for parallel model calls
- Cost tracking via `litellm.track_cost = True` (built-in)

### Git Workflow Pattern
- Feature branches per task
- Conventional commit message generation
- Gitea API for PR automation

### Cross-Model Validation Pattern
```python
async def parallel_validation(prompt, models):
    tasks = [call_llm(model, prompt) for model in models]
    return await asyncio.gather(*tasks, return_exceptions=True)
```

## Risk Mitigation
- LiteLLM abstracts provider API changes
- Async architecture prevents blocking on slow model responses
- Local Ollama provides cost-free fallback for high-volume tasks
