Multi-agent crews

# Start all agents on a shared Docker network
ninetrix up --file ninetrix.yaml

# Trigger the orchestrator
ninetrix invoke --agent orchestrator -m "Research Python history and write a summary"

# Stream logs from all agents
ninetrix logs --file ninetrix.yaml

# Visualize the execution trace
ninetrix trace --thread-id <id>

# Tear down
ninetrix down --file ninetrix.yaml
