The Problem with Traditional Multi-Agent Systems

⚠️

Time and Cost Inefficiency: Traditional multi-agent systems require significant time and resources. If they fail to produce a good result, it leads to wasted effort, missed deadlines, and increased costs.

Looping Without Progress: These systems often get stuck in repetitive loops, unable to break down complex tasks effectively. This leads to long processing times and a lack of real progress.

💡

Lack of Context and Creativity: Traditional systems don't build up reasoning or context. Without a clear thought process, they struggle to deliver creative and reliable solutions, limiting their effectiveness.

The Pyramid Architecture: A Clear Solution

The Pyramid Architecture directly addresses the inefficiencies of traditional systems by introducing a step-by-step, reasoning-based solution. It breaks down tasks into layers, starting from reasoning and building up context, ensuring that complex problems are solved systematically and reliably.

1. Reasoning Layer

The process begins by understanding the problem, analyzing the requirements, and reasoning out the core components that need to be addressed. This forms the foundation of the pyramid.

2. Task Breakdown

Once the core logic is established, the problem is broken down into smaller tasks. Each task is treated independently, allowing for greater focus and efficiency in solving each part of the problem.

3. Context Building

As the pyramid builds upward, context from previous steps is gathered and applied to new tasks. This ensures that each layer adds valuable insights, preventing repetitive looping and ensuring smooth progression.

4. Problem Solving

The individual tasks are solved using a combination of built-up reasoning and context. This step-by-step approach results in more reliable and creative solutions, avoiding the pitfalls of traditional systems.

5. Refinement

At the peak of the pyramid, the solution is refined, optimized, and delivered. The entire process ensures that the final result is not only functional but also efficient, creative, and scalable.

How It Works: Step-by-Step Problem Solving in Software Engineering

Zinley's Pyramid Architecture doesn't just solve problems; it continuously learns, adapts, and heals issues as they arise. Each step builds on the previous one, ensuring reliable, context-aware solutions. Whether it's coding, building a project, or handling dependencies, Zinley progresses through a structured process, adjusting and self-healing when necessary to ensure a successful outcome.

Step 1: Coding and Explanation

Example: You ask Zinley to write a Python function to calculate the Fibonacci sequence. Zinley writes the code and provides detailed explanations for each step, ensuring that you understand the logic behind the function.

How It Works: The Pyramid Architecture starts by reasoning about the task. It breaks down the problem into small parts, writes the code, and explains it. If any mistakes are found, Zinley will automatically revert to an earlier step, self-heal the code, and ensure correctness before proceeding.

Step 2: Managing Dependencies

Example: You need to add a new library like `NumPy` to your project. Zinley checks the system, detects missing dependencies, and installs them while ensuring compatibility with the existing environment.

How It Works: Zinley ensures that all necessary dependencies are installed or updated. It builds context from previous steps, ensuring that dependencies are compatible. If any installation issues occur, Zinley rolls back, fixes the issue, and retries the installation.

Step 3: Building, Compiling, and Running

Example: You ask Zinley to compile and run a C++ project. Zinley prepares the build environment, checks configurations, compiles the code, and then runs it.

How It Works: Zinley methodically builds the project, checking each configuration. If the compilation fails, Zinley reverts to an earlier configuration, fixes any errors, and then retries. The self-healing mechanism ensures the project is successfully built and executed.

Step 4: Context Scraping for Code Assistance

Example: You're working on a complex project and need Zinley to find relevant code snippets or documentation from the web. Zinley searches for solutions, integrates relevant snippets, and credits the sources.

How It Works: Zinley scrapes the web for relevant information, integrates it into your project, and builds on the context it already has from previous steps. If incorrect or incomplete information is found, Zinley reverts, finds better sources, and retries, ensuring the most relevant and accurate data is used.

Step 5: Self-Healing and Rollback

Example: During the coding or building process, errors may arise. Zinley automatically detects these errors and self-heals by reverting to a previous state, fixing the issue, and continuing the task seamlessly.

How It Works: If any step encounters an issue, Zinley activates its self-healing mechanism, identifying the problem, rolling back to the last successful step, and retrying the process. This ensures that you don't have to worry about failed builds or broken code, as Zinley constantly adapts and corrects itself.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this o1-mini or o1-preview or Zinley's system?
Down arrow

This is not about the foundation model. Our team has designed our own system. In fact, each agent in Zinley uses different models, and we haven't applied o1-mini or o1-preview yet.

What models is Zinley using?
Down arrow

We utilize multiple models for each agent based on their specific purposes, including LLMs (Large Language Models), SLMs (Specialized Language Models), and MLMs (Multi-Layer Models). The choice depends on the task type, latency requirements, and cost considerations.

How many agents are there in the Zinley system?
Down arrow

Zinley employs over 20 AI agents. However, not every task utilizes all 20 agents. The system adaptively assigns agents based on the specific requirements of each task, ensuring efficiency and effectiveness in problem-solving.

Which services in Zinley use this Pyramid Architecture?
Down arrow

All current services, including coding, dependency management, compile, build, run, self-healing, QA, and planning, apply the Pyramid Architecture method. This approach enhances collaborative effectiveness and ensures consistency across all functionalities.

Does only the Pro version use the Pyramid Architecture?
Down arrow

No, both the Free and Pro versions utilize the Pyramid Architecture. However, the Pro version offers advanced features such as priority queuing, enhanced self-healing capabilities, and faster processing speeds, providing a more robust and efficient experience for users with greater needs.

Can the Pyramid Architecture be scaled for larger projects?
Down arrow

Absolutely. The Pyramid Architecture is inherently scalable. It can handle increasing complexity and larger projects by efficiently managing and coordinating multiple agents, ensuring consistent performance regardless of project size.

Is the Pyramid Architecture dependent on any specific foundation models?
Down arrow

No, the Pyramid Architecture is designed to be independent of specific foundation models. It can integrate with various models, allowing flexibility and adaptability to different systems and tasks.

What is Snow Mode?
Down arrow

Snow Mode is a Pro feature that runs tasks in parallel, significantly speeding up development while ensuring accuracy. It allows multiple AI agents to work simultaneously, optimizing complex projects without interruptions. Note: Snow Mode operates separately from Pyramid, as they are independent systems.

What is Deployment?
Down arrow

Deployment means that Zinley handles the hosting of your website. Once you've built your project, we take care of putting it live online, ensuring that your site is accessible to users without any need for external hosting services.

What is a Subdomain and Domain for Zinley Deployment?
Down arrow

When deploying your website with Zinley, the default domain will belong to Zinley (e.g., zinley.site). However, you have the flexibility to choose a custom subdomain for your site, like https://luxury.zinley.site/, giving your project a unique and professional appearance.
