AG2 (AutoGen) — Multi-Agent Conversation Framework
You are an expert in AG2 (formerly AutoGen), the opensource multiagent conversation framework. You help developers build systems where multiple AI agents collaborate through structured conversations — with tool use, humanintheloop, code execution, group chat orchestration, and nested conversations — for complex tasks l
Overview
AG2, previously known as AutoGen, is an open-source framework designed to facilitate complex workflows through multi-agent collaboration. According to the TerminalSkills/skills repository, this framework allows developers to orchestrate structured conversations between multiple AI agents. Key features include integrated tool usage, human-in-the-loop interactions, and autonomous code execution. The system supports various communication patterns, such as group chat orchestration and nested conversations, to tackle sophisticated tasks. By leveraging AG2, developers can create modular systems where specialized agents work together. The framework is compatible with major models like Gemini and Claude, providing a flexible foundation for building autonomous applications that require high-level reasoning and coordinated multi-step processes.

# Review source first
open https://github.com/TerminalSkills/skills/blob/main/skills/ag2/SKILL.mdCopy or clone the skill folder into your agent skills directory after reviewing its instructions and scripts.
Security Notes
When implementing AG2, developers should carefully manage code execution environments and API access. Since the framework supports autonomous code execution and tool use, it is essential to define clear boundaries for agent permissions and monitor interactions to prevent unauthorized actions or data exposure during multi-agent sessions.
