使用 supervisor agents 建置研究協調器
在本指南中,你將建置一個研究協調器,使用 supervisor agents 協調多個專門的 Agents。協調器會將研究任務委派給研究 Agent,將寫作任務委派給寫作 Agent,再將結果整合成詳細報告。
你將設定職責明確的 subagents,並設定 supervisor Agent 來協調它們。你也會使用 delegation hooks 控制執行作業,並透過 scorers 驗證任務是否完成。

建立研究 Agent「建立研究 Agent」的直接連結
研究 Agent 專門收集任何主題的事實資訊,並以簡潔的條列摘要傳回重要事實與來源。
建立新檔案 src/mastra/agents/research-agent.ts:
import { Agent } from '@mastra/core/agent'
export const researchAgent = new Agent({
id: 'research-agent',
name: 'Research Specialist',
description:
'Specializes in gathering factual information and data on any topic. ' +
'Returns concise bullet-point summaries with key facts and sources. ' +
'Does not write full articles or narrative content.',
instructions:
'You are a research specialist. When given a topic, gather key facts, ' +
'statistics, and information. Present findings as clear bullet points. ' +
'Include sources when possible. Focus on accuracy and completeness.',
model: 'openai/gpt-5-mini',
})
description 欄位非常重要,它能協助 supervisor 判斷何時應將任務委派給此 Agent。清楚的 descriptions 可提高委派準確度。
建立寫作 Agent「建立寫作 Agent」的直接連結
寫作 Agent 會將研究資料轉換成結構完善、段落完整且行文流暢的文章。
建立新檔案 src/mastra/agents/writing-agent.ts:
import { Agent } from '@mastra/core/agent'
export const writingAgent = new Agent({
id: 'writing-agent',
name: 'Writing Specialist',
description:
'Transforms research material into well-structured written content. ' +
'Produces full paragraphs and complete articles with proper flow. ' +
'Best used after research has been gathered.',
instructions:
'You are a writing specialist. Transform research and information into ' +
'well-written articles. Use complete paragraphs, clear structure, and ' +
'engaging language. Maintain a professional yet accessible tone. ' +
'Ensure the content flows naturally from introduction to conclusion.',
model: 'openai/gpt-5-mini',
})
建立 supervisor Agent「建立 supervisor Agent」的直接連結
supervisor 會協調研究與寫作任務。其 instructions 定義委派策略,包括何時使用各個 subagent,以及如何整合結果。Memory 會直接設定在 Agent 上。
建立新檔案 src/mastra/agents/supervisor-agent.ts:
import { Agent } from '@mastra/core/agent'
import { Memory } from '@mastra/memory'
import { LibSQLStore } from '@mastra/libsql'
import { researchAgent } from './research-agent'
import { writingAgent } from './writing-agent'
export const supervisorAgent = new Agent({
id: 'supervisor-agent',
name: 'Research Coordinator',
instructions: `You coordinate research and writing tasks using specialized agents.
Available resources:
- research-agent: Gathers factual data and sources (returns bullet points)
- writing-agent: Transforms research into well-structured articles (returns full paragraphs)
Delegation strategy:
1. For research requests: Delegate to research-agent first to gather facts
2. For writing requests: Delegate to writing-agent with any available research context
3. For comprehensive reports: Delegate to research-agent first, then writing-agent
4. Always ensure you have gathered sufficient information before producing final output
Success criteria:
- All aspects of the user's request are addressed
- Information is accurate and well-sourced
- Final output is well-formatted and complete
- If anything is missing or uncertain, continue gathering information`,
model: 'openai/gpt-5.6-sol',
agents: {
researchAgent,
writingAgent,
},
memory: new Memory({
storage: new LibSQLStore({
id: 'mastra-storage',
url: 'file:mastra.db',
}),
}),
defaultOptions: {
maxSteps: 10,
// Monitor progress after each iteration
onIterationComplete: async context => {
console.log(`\n✓ Iteration ${context.iteration} complete`)
console.log(` Finish reason: ${context.finishReason}`)
console.log(` Response length: ${context.text.length} chars\n`)
// Continue until task is complete
return { continue: true }
},
// Control delegations
delegation: {
onDelegationStart: async context => {
console.log(`→ Delegating to: ${context.primitiveId}`)
// Add context for specific agents
if (context.primitiveId === 'research-agent') {
return {
proceed: true,
modifiedPrompt: `${context.prompt}\n\nFocus on recent developments (2024-2025) and include statistics.`,
}
}
return { proceed: true }
},
onDelegationComplete: async context => {
console.log(`✓ Completed: ${context.primitiveId}\n`)
// Handle errors: bail to stop execution and provide feedback
if (context.error) {
console.error('Delegation failed:', context.error)
context.bail() // Stop further delegations
return {
feedback: `Delegation to ${context.primitiveId} failed: ${context.error}. Try a different approach.`,
}
}
},
// Only pass last 10 messages to subagents
messageFilter: ({ messages }) => {
return messages.slice(-10)
},
},
},
})
在 src/mastra/index.ts 中向 Mastra 註冊 supervisor:
import { Mastra } from '@mastra/core'
import { supervisorAgent } from './agents/supervisor-agent'
export const mastra = new Mastra({
agents: { supervisorAgent },
})
supervisor Agent 上的 defaultOptions 會設定 delegation hooks 與 iteration monitoring:
onDelegationStart會修改研究 Agent 的 prompt,要求提供近期資料onDelegationComplete會記錄完成狀態、在發生錯誤時停止,然後提供 feedbackmessageFilter會將情境限制為最後 10 則訊息,以提升效率onIterationComplete會在每次 iteration 後監控進度
測試基本 supervisor「測試基本 supervisor」的直接連結
建立 src/index.ts 檔案,與 supervisor 互動:
import { supervisorAgent } from './mastra/agents/supervisor-agent'
async function main() {
const topic = 'artificial intelligence in education'
console.log(`\nTopic: ${topic}\n`)
const stream = await supervisorAgent.stream(
`Research ${topic} and write a comprehensive article about it`,
)
// Stream the response
console.log('📝 Final Report:\n')
for await (const chunk of stream.textStream) {
process.stdout.write(chunk)
}
console.log('\n')
}
main()
supervisor 會使用 defaultOptions 中設定的 delegation hooks 與 iteration monitoring。
加入任務完成評分「加入任務完成評分」的直接連結
任務完成 scorers 會自動驗證任務是否完成,避免 supervisor 過早結束。
在 src/mastra/scorers/task-complete-scorer.ts 中建立 scorer:
import { createScorer } from '@mastra/core/evals'
export const taskCompleteScorer = createScorer({
id: 'task-complete',
name: 'Task Completeness',
description: 'Checks if the research and writing task has been fully completed',
}).generateScore(async context => {
const text = (context.run.output || '').toString()
// Check if response contains required elements
const hasSubstantialContent = text.length > 500
const hasStructure = text.includes('\n\n') // Multiple paragraphs
const hasContext = /\d{4}/.test(text) // Contains years/dates
// Return 1 if complete, 0 if not
if (hasSubstantialContent && hasStructure && hasContext) {
return 1
}
return 0
})
安裝 evals 套件:
- npm
- pnpm
- Yarn
- Bun
npm install @mastra/evals
pnpm add @mastra/evals
yarn add @mastra/evals
bun add @mastra/evals
更新 supervisor Agent,在 src/mastra/agents/supervisor-agent.ts 的 defaultOptions 中加入任務完成評分:
import { Agent } from '@mastra/core/agent'
import { Memory } from '@mastra/memory'
import { LibSQLStore } from '@mastra/libsql'
import { researchAgent } from './research-agent'
import { writingAgent } from './writing-agent'
import { taskCompleteScorer } from '../scorers/task-complete-scorer'
export const supervisorAgent = new Agent({
id: 'supervisor-agent',
name: 'Research Coordinator',
instructions: `You coordinate research and writing tasks using specialized agents.
Available resources:
- research-agent: Gathers factual data and sources (returns bullet points)
- writing-agent: Transforms research into well-structured articles (returns full paragraphs)
Delegation strategy:
1. For research requests: Delegate to research-agent first to gather facts
2. For writing requests: Delegate to writing-agent with any available research context
3. For comprehensive reports: Delegate to research-agent first, then writing-agent
4. Always ensure you have gathered sufficient information before producing final output
Success criteria:
- All aspects of the user's request are addressed
- Information is accurate and well-sourced
- Final output is well-formatted and complete
- If anything is missing or uncertain, continue gathering information`,
model: 'openai/gpt-5.6-sol',
agents: {
researchAgent,
writingAgent,
},
memory: new Memory({
storage: new LibSQLStore({
id: 'mastra-storage',
url: 'file:mastra.db',
}),
}),
defaultOptions: {
maxSteps: 10,
onIterationComplete: async context => {
console.log(`\n✓ Iteration ${context.iteration} complete`)
console.log(` Finish reason: ${context.finishReason}`)
console.log(` Response length: ${context.text.length} chars\n`)
return { continue: true }
},
delegation: {
onDelegationStart: async context => {
console.log(`→ Delegating to: ${context.primitiveId}`)
if (context.primitiveId === 'research-agent') {
return {
proceed: true,
modifiedPrompt: `${context.prompt}\n\nFocus on recent developments (2024-2025) and include statistics.`,
}
}
return { proceed: true }
},
onDelegationComplete: async context => {
console.log(`✓ Completed: ${context.primitiveId}\n`)
if (context.error) {
console.error('Delegation failed:', context.error)
context.bail() // Stop further delegations
return {
feedback: `Delegation to ${context.primitiveId} failed: ${context.error}. Try a different approach.`,
}
}
},
messageFilter: ({ messages }) => {
return messages.slice(-10)
},
},
// Validate task completion
isTaskComplete: {
scorers: [taskCompleteScorer],
strategy: 'all',
onComplete: async result => {
console.log('\n🎯 Completion Check:')
console.log(` Complete: ${result.complete}`)
console.log(` Score: ${result.scorers[0]?.score}\n`)
},
},
},
})
scorer 會檢查內容是否充實、結構是否適當,以及是否包含情境資訊。如果任務尚未完成,supervisor 會繼續 iteration。現在所有 hooks 與任務完成評分都設定在 Agent 的 defaultOptions 中,因此會自動套用至每次呼叫。

✓ Iteration 1 complete
Finish reason: tool-calls
Response length: 0 chars
✓ Completed: research-agent
→ Delegating to: writing-agent
✓ Iteration 2 complete
Finish reason: tool-calls
Response length: 0 chars
✓ Completed: writing-agent
🎯 Completion Check:
Complete: true
Score: 1
✓ Iteration 3 complete
Finish reason: stop
Response length: 1247 chars
📝 Final Report:
Artificial Intelligence in Education: Transforming Learning in 2024-2025
[The coordinator will produce a comprehensive article combining research findings with well-structured writing...]
由於 Agent 回應並非確定性輸出,你的結果可能不同,但委派模式會保持一致。
