Magnitude is a curated system of specialized agents, each with its own defined role. Every agent is a tuned bundle of system prompt, scoped context, dedicated toolset, and a model + reasoning level.

​
Why specialized agents

Open models are less “one size fits all” than closed ones. Different open models are better at different things: some are fast and great at exploration, some are strong at planning, some are tasteful with code. A single model trying to do everything leaves a lot on the table. Specialized agents let us match each role to the model that actually performs best for it. We benchmark combinations, tune prompts to each model’s quirks, and assign work accordingly. The result is a team that punches above what any single model could do on its own.

​
The leader

You only ever talk to the leader. The leader runs the conversation, holds your intent, and delegates work to the specialists when it needs to. You don’t pick agents or route tasks. The leader figures out who should do what. For simple questions and small fixes, the leader handles them directly. For larger work, it delegates. When a specialist finishes, the leader reviews the output and decides what’s next. Model: GLM 5.1

​
The specialists

Five specialists the leader delegates to. Each has its own role, model, and tool access.

​
Scout

Fast and efficient exploration. Scouts investigate the codebase and gather evidence quickly. Read-only access. Model: Kimi K2.5

​
Architect

Plans and high-level design thinking. Architects evaluate approaches and produce implementation plans before code gets written. Model: Kimi K2.6

​
Engineer

Concrete planning and implementation. Engineers do the actual code changes. Model: Kimi K2.6

​
Critic

Critical and detail-oriented analysis. Critics independently verify quality and behavior after changes. Model: Kimi K2.6

​
Scientist

Empirical debugging and information gathering. Scientists root-cause bugs through hypothesis testing. The focus is diagnosis, not implementing the fix. Model: Kimi K2.6
