# State Management

In a multi-agent system, state is the shared truth about what's happened, what's in progress, and what's been decided. Without state management, agents work with stale or conflicting information — and the user pays the cost in repeated questions, contradictory answers, and lost progress.

State management is the *plumbing* skill of multi-agent design. Get it wrong and every other skill in this plugin gets harder.

## Types of state

- **Task state**: where the overall task is in its lifecycle. Which subtasks are complete, in progress, or pending.
- **Context state**: what each agent knows. What has been shared, summarised, or dropped.
- **User state**: preferences, history, and current emotional state.
- **Decision state**: decisions made, options considered, options rejected (and why).
- **Error state**: what has failed, been retried, been escalated.
