- You can also use MLX or Huggingface for local models, but we'll use Ollama for this guide.
🛠️ Installation Options
Choose your preferred method:
Bash
# Install uv (if not already installed)
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
# Install SuperOptiX
uv pip install superoptix --prerelease=allow
# Verify installation
super --help
# Get comprehensive documentation
super docs
💡 Note: The first execution of super commands may take a few seconds as Python compiles bytecodes.
Bash
# Install SuperOptiX
pip install superoptix
# Verify installation
super --help
# Get comprehensive documentation
super docs
💡 Note: The first execution of super commands may take a few seconds as Python compiles bytecodes.
Bash
# Install with all optional features
pip install superoptix[all]
# This includes:
# - Vector databases (ChromaDB, LanceDB, etc.)
# - UI components (Streamlit, Plotly)
# - Observability (MLflow, monitoring)
# - Cloud integrations (AWS, Azure, GCP)
# Verify installation
super --help
# Get comprehensive documentation
super docs
💡 Note: The first execution of super commands may take a few seconds as Python compiles bytecodes.
🔧 Optional Dependencies
SuperOptiX supports various optional dependencies for enhanced functionality. Install them based on your needs:
MLX (Apple Silicon)
-mlx-lm==0.26.0 - Apple MLX framework for local inference
HuggingFace
-transformers==4.53.2 - HuggingFace transformers library
- torch==2.7.1 - PyTorch for model inference
- fastapi==0.116.1 - Web framework for model serving
- huggingface-hub==0.33.4 - HuggingFace Hub integration

ChromaDB
LanceDB
FAISS
Weaviate
Qdrant
Milvus
All Vector Databases
🤖 Step 0: Install AI Models (Optional but Recommended)
After installing SuperOptiX, you'll need AI models to power your agents. For this guide, we'll use local models via Ollama:
Bash
# Download models for different agent tiers
super model install llama3.2:1b # For Oracles tier (faster, lighter)
super model install llama3.2:8b # For Genies tier (more capable)
💡 Pro Tip: You can also use cloud models (OpenAI, Anthropic) by setting API keys in your project's .env file.
🛠️ Step 1: Initialize Your SWE Project
💡 Pro Tip: Add --verbose to see detailed project setup information:
You should see a .super file in the root. All further commands should be run from this directory.
🤖 Step 2: Pull a Developer Agent

🧪 Understanding Evaluation Results
The evaluation shows that your agent scored 0.0% pass rate (0/5 scenarios). Here's what happened:
📋 How BDD Specs Become DSPy Gold Examples
Your BDD scenarios from the playbook are automatically converted into DSPy gold examples for optimization:
- 🎯 Scenario Extraction: Each BDD scenario becomes a training example
- 📝 Input/Output Pairs:
feature_requirement→implementationpairs - 🧠 DSPy Training Data: Used to optimize prompts and reasoning chains
- ⚡ Few-Shot Learning: Creates better examples for the model
🔍 Why Scores Are Low
The low scores are expected with llama3.2:1b because:
-
Small model capacity: Limited reasoning and context understanding
-
Complex scenarios: BDD specs test sophisticated software development tasks
-
High expectations: Scenarios expect detailed, professional-level responses
⚠️ Note on Model Pass Rates
Pass rates may be low with small models
Pass rates may be low with small models like llama3.2:1b. For higher pass rates and production use, try a larger model (e.g., llama3.2:8b or gpt-4) or further optimize your agent.
💡 Don't worry! Even with low evaluation scores, your agent can still perform well on real tasks. The evaluation is a quality gate for production readiness.
🎯 Step 5: Optimize the Agent
⚠️ IMPORTANT WARNING: Optimization is Resource-Intensive
🚨 System Requirements: - Minimum 16GB GPU RAM required for optimization - 8GB+ system RAM recommended - Stable internet connection for API calls
💡 Optimization Details: - Makes multiple LLM API calls (can be costly) - Uses DSPy BootstrapFewShot strategy - May take several minutes to complete - Use responsibly - monitor your API usage
🔄 Skip this step if you don't meet the requirements or want to avoid costs. Your agent will still work without optimization.

🎉 Agent 'developer' optimization complete! Ready for testing! 🚀
🎯 What Happened During Optimization?
SuperOptiX created an optimized pipeline file: swe/agents/developer/pipelines/developer_optimized.json
This file contains:
- 🧠 Optimized Prompts: DSPy automatically improved the reasoning chains and prompts
- 📚 Few-Shot Demos: Generated examples from your BDD scenarios for better performance
- ⚡ Enhanced Reasoning: Better step-by-step thinking patterns
- 🎯 Context-Aware Responses: Improved understanding of software development tasks
The optimization process:
- ✅ Used your 5 BDD scenarios as training data
- ✅ Applied DSPy BootstrapFewShot strategy for automatic improvement
- ✅ Generated optimized weights for better performance
- ✅ Preserved your original pipeline while creating an enhanced version
💡 The optimized file is automatically loaded when you run your agent, giving you better results without any code changes!
🧪 Step 6: Re-Evaluate the Agent (After Optimization)
The re-evaluation shows similar results to the initial evaluation, with slight improvements in scores. This is expected with the small model we're using.
▶️ Step 7: Run the Agent Independently
Now let's test if the agent can execute goals independently:

🎉 Success! Your developer agent can execute goals independently and provided a complete Snake game implementation using Pygame. This demonstrates that the agent works both:
- ✅ Independently - Can handle single tasks with detailed implementations
- ✅ In orchestration - Can work as part of a multi-agent team
➕ Step 8: Add More Agents (QA & DevOps)

Quick Start Note
You can evaluate and optimize these agents just like the developer, but for this quick start, we'll just compile them and get them ready for orchestration.
🎼 Step 9: Create and Run a Multi-Agent Orchestra
Now let's create an orchestra to coordinate your agents!
💡 Pro Tip: Add --verbose to see detailed orchestra configuration and guidance:
Output
Text Only
🔎 Found 3 existing agent(s): developer, devops_engineer, qa_engineer. Adding them to the orchestra.
📝 Loaded 3 task(s) from agent playbooks.
✅ Created new orchestra definition at: swe/orchestras/sdlc_orchestra.yaml
👉 Orchestra automatically configured with tasks from agent playbooks.
Found 3 task(s): implement_feature, configure_ci_pipeline, create_test_plan
💡 Customization Guidance:
This is an automatic orchestra created based on your agent playbooks.
You should refine this orchestra based on your specific goal to make it more targeted.
You can:
• Add more agents that align with your goal
• Modify task descriptions to be more specific
• Adjust execution strategy (sequential/parallel)
• Add dependencies between tasks
• Set custom timeouts and priorities
📋 Version Information:
🆓 Free Version: Sequential execution strategy only
💎 Pro Version: Parallel, hierarchical, mixed strategies + Kubernetes orchestration
ℹ️ Orchestra kind 'basic' is supported in both versions
🚀 Ready to run: super orchestra run sdlc --goal "your specific goal here"
📝 Edit file: swe/orchestras/sdlc_orchestra.yaml
🎯 Orchestra Workflow Recommendations:
Before running this orchestra, ensure your agents are optimized:
1. Compile all agents: super agent compile --all
2. Evaluate baseline: super agent evaluate <agent_name>
3. Optimize agents: super agent optimize <agent_name> *(requires 16GB+ GPU RAM)*
4. Re-evaluate improvement: super agent evaluate <agent_name>
5. Then run orchestra: super orchestra run sdlc --goal "goal"
💡 Well-optimized individual agents lead to better orchestration results!
⚠️ **Note:** Step 3 (optimization) is resource-intensive and requires 16GB+ GPU RAM. Skip if you don't meet the requirements.
The orchestra automatically created a YAML configuration file that coordinates your three agents:
