    paper Agentic Collaboration Ecosystem

    Overview

    ACE (Agentic Collaboration Ecosystem) is a spec-driven multi-agent platform designed as a personal R&D environment and orchestration layer.
    Its core purpose is to enable engineers to operate at collective scale through a managed swarm of interoperable, typed, and self-discovering agents and services.

    ACE is not a product; it is infrastructure that explains how its builder thinks, designs, and ships.
